Hi guys -- This was just posted on the forums about a half-hour ago, and I wanted to pass it along to the devel list in case it helped to shed light on one of the commonly reported bugs in 1.9.
==================== Re: Big Black Box by cj chitwood on Sun Dec 28, 2008 11:20 pm Alright... So... I downloaded from CVS SimGear 1.9.0 and FlightGear Source 1.9.0 and Data 1.9.0. Took a long time, to say the least. I didn't realize when I started Data that I was downloading every available airplane. But no bother, saves me the trouble later on. I start it up, and there's the box. Ah, but wait, we now can browse the properties. File, Browse Internal Properties (or hit "/"). Go to sim/rendering/camera-group Select "near-field" and make it "0" (zero). Hit set, close property browser, black box is gone. Problem is, if you reset the scenario, you have to do this all over again. I think I recall being able to set properties in the .fgfsrc file, and if so, no prob. Otherwise, this would get annoying for e.g. chopper practice. Question for the developers: What is the purpose of having "two cameras" as I've read it called? Why have one near and one far renderer? I'm curious, not complaining... thanks, CJ ==================== Cheers, -R. Robert M.
