Thanks guys I'll look through those examples...
The reason I need to split the altitude is the PFD display scrolls
less than 100 values in steps of 10 and in smaller text. 100 and
greater digits are larger non scrolling text ... easy to do with
textures and textranslate, but I'm attempting a 3d tex

Curt,
To add to what Anders and Chris have said:
Mirroring an object reverses the order of vertices in faces, which
results in polygon normals pointing in the opposite direction--
outside becomes inside.
If you're mirroring in Edit mode, you should only need to do the flip
normals command. I.e.,

Quick update: I found the reason for this bug (see previous post "SimGear bug?
read-only properties tied to object methods not initialized") so there is a
good chance for a fix soon.

Hi Chris,
I turned on normals and they are all pointing outwards on both halves of my
model. It looks good in blender, but when I export it to 3ds and open it up
in osgviewer, the mirrored half is still inside out.

Hey Curt,
This is the process I use in Blender 2.49 - its slightly different but similar
for Blender 2.5x
Use face select mode, select the faces you need to flip, and in 'mesh tools'
click 'flip normals', then re-save your model - that *should* do the trick.
Another useful trick is to click 's

Hi all - here comes a tricky one:
(good bugs are usually tricky - not everything tricky is necessarily a bug)
Imagine an arbitrary PropertyList config file like this:

and a code fragment like

public:
double getter() const { return foo; }
void setter( double d ) { foo
Hi guys,

I think I found the error, it was in JSBSim's FGForce class. I've

I would assume that if you don't specify the runway on startup, you'll
automagically get placed against the wind, as you would do in real

Is there any chance this depends on having a _tailwind_

Crosswinds and tailwinds can cause so

Here is an interesting link that explains the core of the problem.

By the way we can play with the gear Z position (gear/unit/z-position) and
the well known terrain nasal script (geodinfo) which expose the terrain
load-resistance.
Though, that feature is only eye candy.

Correct. JSBSim itself makes no distinction between ground materials (hence
the reason why some aircrafts are able to land on water). This can however
be managed with Nasal scripts. So I would say that this issue is likely
located in one of the C172 Nasal scripts.

I know. I just pointed out that the GIT version is broken anyway.

Hi Fred,
Ok, that explains it. Terrasync 'monitors' 5505

And I can now see unchecking TerraSync:5505

Hi,
yes, you're right, fgrun use the code in run_posix.cxx to create a new fgfs

You are allowed to specify the command line you want as executable in the first

Hi Fred,
As previously stated, thanks for the great
WIN32 installer v20110207 ... it works like
a charm ;=))
But it seems fgrun adds Atlas -
--atlas=socket,out,5,localhost,5505,udp

But then when you check the Atlas option
it adds a 2nd Atlas command -
I would like to make a small mod to Fgrun, I would like explore the options

I spent some time studying the code today and it looked like it runs fgfs as
a child process from the run_posix module.
