[Flightgear-devel] Airport Layouts (Europe)

2004-11-13 Thread Erik Hofman
At a dutch (governmental) website I came across a number of documents containing European airport layouts of high quality (vector drawings in PDF format). If you are interested in modeling them for FlightGear/X-Plane then you can find jpeg images of them here:

Another way to do it which is what I did was use the following command: locate plibfnt It returned: /fgfs/lib/libplibfnt.a /Users/myuser/FlightGear/plib/src/fnt/libplibfnt.a So no, unless the source file count I do not have another PLIB installation. Even though I really have to work on my own

Yes I found out quickly that locate does not stay up to date. But it did find everything. I think the datebase rebuilds daily or something. But I decided to try to build simgear again (from CVS) and it seems in a file called matlib.cxx in material it contains the following line: #include GL/gl.h

If I recall correctly. OpenAL was required for PLIB. And it is not included in Panther although it will be in Tiger. Maybe that should be added? On Fri, 12 Nov 2004 09:12:43 -0800, Adam Dershowitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: OK, I took a whack at drafting up a new set of Mac build instructions

Hi, I have now the FDM side of an aircraft carrier set up. The implementation uses a local cache of the scene graph to do intersection tests. This can then be done per gear/hook/lauchbar. Also the required aircraft carrier hardware will show up in this cache and can provide the required
