Hi Jon, If you don't do local changes updating is as easy as cd:ing into fgdata (and the respective source repositories) and type 'git pull'. 'git log' will list all changes with the latest first (it is automatically using a pager so there is no need to pipe the output to more or similar). If you do local changes you can commit them locally using 'git add' and 'git commit'. 'git status' and 'git diff' are also useful commands. To merge your local changes with upstream commits on the origin master branch you can either do git fetch; (downloads new changes done to the remote branches) git merge origin/master (origin/next for the source repros) (merges the branch origin/master into your current local branch) or, and this is my preferred method, git fetch; git rebase origin/master (origin/next for the source repros) The later approach keeps your local changes first (most recent) in the history of your local branch. Essentially as if you committed all your local changes on top of the most recent state of upstream branch. However, a branch that you rebase regularly should not be published for others since each rebase changes the commit ids your local commits in the branch. Btw. all git commands should display their respective manual page by 'git command --help' One of many good resources on git usage: http://progit.org/book/ Cheers, Anders -- --- Anders Gidenstam WWW: http://www.gidenstam.org/FlightGear/ -- This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.

You need to press the 's' key to start the engine. There should be a property to have the engine started but I don't know which one. If you know it, you can start fgfs with the --prop:/property/to/start/engine=true Doesn't this depend on the aircraft? Some aircraft will not run without certain conditions being in place. For example the JSBSIm P-51D needs to have the fuel pump turned on, the fuel cutoff in the on position, the mixture in run or full rich and the mags turned on among other things to run. A quick search on-line found a number of references to setting /engines/engine[0]/running=true to have a running engine. I just tested setting the above property with the JSBSim P-51D and it was not running when flightgear started. This is not surprising because it had no fuel and the ignition was off at that point. The startup procedure for the JSBSim P-51D is documented in aircraft help where there is a complete set of check lists including one for the start up procedure.

Hi, You should be in the directory where you want to have the fgdata directory, i.e. git creates fgdata in the current directory. Cloning will download about 2.5GB of data so it will take a good while. If gitorious is slow you can also clone from http://mapserver.flightgear.org/git/fgdata Is there anything that needs to be done afterwards when the data is all downloaded, or is FlightGear ready to run at that point? FlightGear should be ready to run at that point. Use the --fg-root=/path/to/fgdata argument to point FlightGear to the fgdata directory - it probably won't find it otherwise.

See the instructions on the wiki at http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/Building_FlightGear_-_Windows which will give you a good start point. The biggest problem is with the 3rd party stuff, each of which (especially OpenSceneGraph) has its own 3rd party requirements. This is only relevant if you really MUST build your own to to date version of each and not rely on the distributions suggested in the Wiki. Also the 3rd part stuff keeps changing, so it is very difficult to be at the cutting edge. A Visual Studio 2010 build with fully up to date 3rd part stuff is possible - I have done it here, but at the moment it is not worth the hassle. -- This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Building FlightGear under Vista
When I built OSG (from the latest SVN ) using Cmake I did not include tiff libraries. The net result was a similar error message to yours when I tried to use a tiff texture file. Also all my panels were white. I replaced the tiff file with a png equivalent (as used by many FG aircraft models) and both the error message disappeared and my cockpit textures re-appeared. Hence my reply. It may be that an OSG plugin may be the solution under Linux/Cygwin, but with Windows the option was required at OSG�s Cmake/compilation time . Alan OK, I tried this again under a Windows command window. Even after copying all of the dlls, etc., into the FlightGear executable directory, I still get tons of errors, until finally getting a core dump (see below). I do have all of the OSG DLLs, OpenAL, etc., which were installed during the process. I have a sneaking suspicion that somehow I do not have my paths (PATH environment variable, or whatever) set up correctly. Is there an easy way to check that? I do see that there is an osgPlugin-2.9.7/ subdirectory under the OpenSceneGraph/bin/ directory. Is that supposed to be in the PATH, as well? I added it, but it seemed to have no effect.
