It was I who committed it, and I had some work making it acceptable and applying (often broken) patches. Then he started bitching about the poor performance of the fgfs/jsbsim developers, who didn't work fast enough for him. And after carrier support had still not been implemented after some months(?) he asked for his aircraft to be removed again from CVS. There was no holding back at all. There were discussions about it on IRC, and people offered to help out with a YASim FDM config (with working carrier support at that time already), but Gerard didn't only refuse to accept the help, he even wrote on his HP as a copyright restriction that nobody would be allowed to write a YASim config for his F8![1] We wouldn't have had to remove the F8 -- after all it was offered under the GPL -- but it was removed anyway. (Well, not really, it's still in CVS, in the attic. ;-) This was someone taking revenge on the FlightGear project because it didn't follow his orders. Pathetic behavior like this does fortunately not happen often in the OSS world. But I'd be careful to ever again accept contributions from unreliable people.

[Flightgear-devel] Building FlightGear 0.9.11 on Ubuntu 7.04
Hi All I have transfered over to here because I have FG 9.11 working but with some gymnastics. Openal built ok Plib would not build said it could not find working GL library ended up installing plib dev package by synaptic. SimGear seemed happy with plib but could not find alut. Installed libalut and libalut-dev this enabled SimGear to configure but during Make the following error occured. /SimGear-0.3.11-pre1/simgear/sound/openal_test1.cxx:120: undefined reference to `alutCreateBufferFromFile' Removed the offending section from openal_test1.cxx and ran Make again got further but once again had an error.But without doing anything I ran Make again and to my surprise it ran without error.Now I know that this is not right but the rest of the build went without problems and sound seems to be working fine. The only other problem I notice so far is the one that has been mentioned before and that is the sim stops(well almost) if you select fullscreen.So reading the previous posts I tried game mode this started FG at the same screen size as if nothing had been selected next I tried fullscreen this never fully started as I shut it down after about a minute and found this error. Function glutSetCursor called without first calling 'glutInit'. Then I tried geometry= 1024x768 and geometry=1280x1024 both these started and ran fine. As 1280x1024 is fullscreen for me it seems strange that the sim won't run if fullscreen is selected but will if 1280x1024 is.This problem does not seem to occur on FG 9.9 which I have on another hard drive when used on the same computer. Hope this information helps someone.If anyone wants to know all the things I did to get FG 9.11 going on Ubuntu 7.04 just ask Thanks to Ron and Curt for there help Cheers Innis _ Advertisement: Your Future Starts Here.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] An2 fixes for MP
On Monday 04 June 2007 06:15, Yurik V. Nikiforoff wrote: When I write model, I don't take care about MP abilites, so I say big thanks for you and you work. Let's it to go to CVS. No problem - it likely would have gone unnoticed for much longer had it not been for the volume of traffic at EDDI last week :-) What's a rules for right MP animations? Should I not use leading slashes for properties? for default properties only or for custom props too? Basically, the leading slash makes the path absolute; so for example /surface-positions/flap-pos-norm will always be controlled by the main, local FDM running. That means that if your 3d model uses that path to animate the flaps, in MP everyone who sees an An2 will see the flaps on that model controlled by their own FDM, not the other pilot. If you use the relative surface-positions/flap-pos-norm for the animation though, when the An2 is used as an AI model as in MP, the actual path that is read might be /ai/models/multiplayer[0]/surface-positions/flap-pos-norm and the animations will then be relevant to each particular instance of the An2. For custom properties there is not quite the same urgency since they're not passed by the MP protocol (yet), but unless there is a good reason to use an absolute path I think it would be wise to avoid them. In my patch I left some of your custom properties with leading slashes - they should probably be removed too, but I didn't want to interfere with someone else's model more than absolutely necessary. Hopefully the above is fairly correct, it's still a bit early on a Monday morning for me to be thinking ;-) Cheers, AJ - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Hi all, as promised the Dragonfly that was created during Linuxtag 2007 is in CVS (thanks, Martin!). The Dragonfly is a microlight aircraft built by Bill Moyes. It is pure fun to fly and due to it's slow flying speed it is ideal for scenery discovery and training flights.

[Flightgear-devel] JSBSim turbine state machine
Looks like if the engine is Starved once, it always stays that way
even if the aircraft is refuelled. I have tried to make this work, and
hacked the state machine.
Please review my changes as I may have broken something.
* I have moved the selection of the next state into the appropriate
handler - I think it belongs there
* I have overridden the ConsumeFuel function so that it automatically
sets the state to tpOff if out of fuel.
* The starter operates as follows: the engine is spin-up. After that
state is set to tpStart. In the next iteration Start() will check if
there is fuel or not.
This probably belongs to the jsbsim mail list, but I am not subscribed
there and Jon seems to be reading fg-devel anyway. Sorry if this
caused any inconvenience.
Greets,
Csaba

[Flightgear-devel] HEADS UP: simgear cvslogs mailing list.
! ! ! ! HEADS UP TO ALL THOSE THAT ARE SUBSCRIBED TO THE SIMGEAR-CVSLOGS MAILING LIST ! ! ! ! I have decided that I want to get out of the being spam bait business. Currently, the only mailing lists hosted by mail.flightgear.org are the simgear-cvslogs list and the terragear lists. 99.99% of the traffic that comes through this machine is spam. The machine consistently runs at a high load average, just because it's running spam assassin and virus checking on each incoming mail. Part of the recent simgear-cvslog list problems were due to a huge flood of spam that basically put a 2 week wait just for the mail queue scanner to get through the queue once. I have activated the source forge simgear-cvslogs mailing list and will very shortly start directly commit logs to that list instead of the one I host locally. I won't move people's subscriptions over myself, you will need to do that yourself. To subscribe to this list, go to: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/simgear-cvslogs I need to decide what to do about the terragear mailing lists, but those are lower volume, and as a backup, people could post questions and issues to flightgear-devel (which often happens anyway.) As an aside, I will probably point the mx records for flightgear.org over to google mail (boo hisss) :-) and let them deal with the spam. But, as part of that, I would have the opportunity to setup as many as 100 email accounts for our organization. Once this is done I'll send out a fuller email, but I think it would be no problem to offer people [EMAIL PROTECTED] email addresses at that point for those that would want the elevated status and spam exposure that such an in demand domain name brings. :-) SO GO RIGHT NOW AND SUBSCRIBE YOURSELF TO THE * * * NEW * * * [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list so you don't miss a commit message: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/simgear-cvslogs Regards, Curt. -- Curtis Olson - University of Minnesota - FlightGear Project http://baron.flightgear.org/~curt/ http://www.humanfirst.umn.edu/ http://www.flightgear.org Unique text: 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

First of all, let me take this opportunity to thank everybody involved for the excellent organization! I was only at the booth for two days, Thursday and Friday, so I missed out on all the excitement of organizing and setting it up. It wasreally nice once again to meet some people from the project, and a great opportunity to discuss development ideas face to face. On Friday, we installed some additional IA goodies I had brought with me, and once we discovered it didn't work as expected, I learned how invaluable it was to have _the_ FlightGear OSG expert at the booth. Matthias and I started a debugging session (Matthias coding, and me test-flying), and within an hour the problem was solved! In addition to that, some other serious development work was going on during the meeting:Torsten Dreyer build the DragonFly, and me and Thomas Foerster did ground networks for EDDI, and EDDT (thanks Torsten for having TaxiDraw/CVS on your laptop!). In general, people were very enthusiastic, and this alone makes the effort of working on FlightGear very rewarding. I probably didn't talk to as many people as some of the other members, but those people I did talk with were, in general, very enthusiastic. I did talk with one experienced private pilot, who described the simulation of the Piper as excellent, his only comment being that the absence of proprioceptive and auditory feedback did make it hard to judge the landing. Personally, I've been exposed to many aspects of FlightGear I hadn't really gotten into sofar. These included Flying the Helicopter (Awesome: Holger uploaded some pictures, where it seems all I'm doing is heliflying :-)), Carrier take-off and landing (Didn't try myself. Wanted to, but we were flying with Metar enabled, and just as I was making low passes over San Francisco, a low and thick overcast cloud layer came in), and Multiplayer (really nice). Finally, I believe a BIG thank you is in place for Sun micro systems, who loaned hardware for the booth. This solar system gave a stellar performance; even with loads of multiplayer and AI goodies enabled. The multi display system also shows the power of OpenSceneGraph, and in case one might have had any doubts about the way of the future, let this be final proof that OSG is the way to go! Thanks everybody for your involvement. Cheers, Durk - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML. No limits.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Impressions from LinuxTag
Hallo Stuart, we had two SUN Ultra 40 workstations each with two dual core Opterons 280, 8GB of memory and two Nvidia Quadro FX 3500 graphic cards. The monitors were four SUN 20,1 TFT displays with a resolution of 1600x1200. It's not a particularly new feature, and it's documented in The Manual: http://www.flightgear.org/Docs/getstart/getstartch5.html#x10-710005.4 ... as all good features should be ;) You only have to configure your xorg.conf file with four screens and there is a section in the preferences.xml file in the FlightGear data directory configuring four cameras for osgViewer. I will post both files tomorrow on the list or I can document it in the wiki.

[Flightgear-devel] Plib - weather radar
Hi, Just a reminder that an improved weather radar is available at: ftp://abbeytheatre2.org.uk/fgfs/instrumentation/ In addition to the existing weather radar functions, this improved instrument uses the Radar Equation to display raw radar contacts, corrected for RCS and the radar horizon, as well as data and TACAN contacts. It displays AI Ships, AI Aircraft and Multiplayer aircraft (and Ballistic objects, if the RCS is big enough). It also implements the map mode currently broken in the existing instrument. Due to the fact that it will not work in FG-osg (any more) than the existing one does), it seems unlikely to make into the plib branch, but I've updated it to today's head. I do not intend to do so in the future - grab it now if you want it, this is my last activity on this code.
