Hi,
I have noticed that there seems to be a discrepancy between the long /
lat reading in the hud and in atlas and the long / lat I have to enter
to place static or AI objects. The Hud and Atlas correspond with my OS
map of the area. To place an AI plane a couple of metres from my planes

That's pretty good scenery! Is that straight from TerraGear or ripped from the MS
Scenery add-ons?

Just to clear up the visualflight question, the scenery I have built
does not use the visualflight scenery rather the same source material as
visualflight.
This is a UK company called Getmapping that has done an almost complete
aerial survey of the UK. They actually sell this data in fairly

that someone reading your email might think that there has been
discussion of this, something you should perhaps make clear.
I hope the above has answered your concerns and would be keen to know
what others think on this.

A good updated version of the Scenery Tutorial is here:

Not sure why this has not been adopted on the main site.
Earlier in the year I had some success with a simple method of placing
photo scenery here are some results:
Hi All,
Is it possible to loop an AI flight plan to create endless AI air and
ground traffic ?
I would like to be able to share customised Airports with others and be
able to fly around other peoples custom scenery airports. Are there
plans to put AI scenarios and flight plans in the scenery
.

I'd thought of drilling a hole in the ball of a serial mouse and
attaching a weight on a stick to it. Mount the mouse in a cage with a
spirit level on it, fix the cage in the aircraft and get a zeroed
reading and then record mouse positions against time during flight.
An upside down joystick with
I can see several business ideas related to this along the lines of
something that could be fun to develop but which also has a variety of
commercial possibilities.
Does anyone have any examples of how commercial collaborations with open

Related to my query re real flight playback, I thought I should start at
the beginning. I found this mention here on the Avsim Flightgear forum
re playback.

last paragraph of last post was not clear.
I am building a GPS NMEA recorder now.
I will build the full flight logger as discussed in the bulk of my last

etc ( and all the as yet unforeseen problems )

Yes seems straightforward.
adding

to fgfsrc
created the recordednmea file OK

Hi All,
I am going to have a second shot at photo scenery and have been looking
at the last way I did it.
I have asked this question before, but wonder if there is anyone out
there who knows where I can find out how terrain texture tiles are
placed in FG.
It looks as if they are placed by FG and

Hi All,
I've been away from FG for a while and have done a fresh install of CVS
on Mandrake 10.1 and am getting a couple of glitches.
if I start FG from Fgrun it is intermittently crashing during or before
the splash screen and leaving core dump files in my home directory, this
also happens
I'm getting seg faults 25% - 50% of the time when I try to start fg.
This is on a fresh install of Mandrake 10.1 with the latest CVS of plib,
simgear, flightgear, with the latest nvidia drivers.

Have been having a problem on my desktop PC where fgrun seg faults when
I hit the run button, so I can only start fg from the command line.
I bought a laptop last weekend and did a fresh install of
plib,simgear,fg cvs fgrun cvs using fltk 1.4 (with threads) and I'm
getting the same problem. This
Worth a try !
Have you got any plans of the Katana ?
Its very hard to find anything on the DA42 I emailed Diamond but had
nothing back.

*Flightgear places textures inside a mystery
Gabor these look great.
How about a mini howto on the texture creation for the livery, you seem
to have got the balance just right between the look and the resolution
of the texture.

Man, where did you take the airport building and the gates from ? Is
this something that you'd like to contribute to our FlightGear Scenery
Model Directory (http://fgfsdb.stockill.org
Is there anything relating to usage ?
The DA42 is definitely the plane I would like to see in FG, as it is
definitely the plane I would like to fly one day.
