[Flightgear-devel] Strange (reflections?) effect

2010-10-02 Thread fierst42




hi all

I was flying in my trusted Robin DR-400 (dr400 in fgfs) over Hawai (see
FGFS newsletter september 2010).

Looking left, I noticed a couple of strange optical effects. I had seen
them before, but I disgarded them as reflections on the dome of the
aeroplane. With the latest GIT version (compiled 2010-10-01), the
effect seems to have become worse. And since the "reflection" is now
over the hand of the pilot, I can no longer convince myself it is
supposed to be there.

Anybody has a clue on what might cause this?

It's possibly part of the pilot figure seen from inside. I don't think that
this is a bug, the model needs a bit of tidying up/TLC
