- if the selected model is the sign placeholder (Aircraft/ufo/Models/sign.ac;
first entry in the m-key dialog), then the export writes an OBJECT_SIGN
entry with the legend as contents (rather than the path).
Note that the input field for legend/comment is invisible if it doesn't
contain any text. You find it if you click right over the status line
entry in the lower left corner. Usability bug by design. :-)
(The dialog can also be dragged to another place.)
load the export file directly into fgfs via --config option:
--config=$HOME/.fgfs/ufo-model-export.xml (An fgfs wrapper could add
this option automatically if the file exists. Mine does. :-)
- import all /models/model[n] objects into the UFO's model manager, so
that they become editable
Both features together allow to save an UFO object session and to continue
it next time.
I missed a few things in the last patch.
1. prop size did not match prop disc size.
2. rescaled yoke to match measured yoke.
3. messed up hot spots for heading indicator knobs when I tweaked the
panel last patch.
The fix that could not wait was #3, so I also re-textured the pilot head
with outdoor face photos. Yep, that's my face. The hair is now
textured also which looks better close up.
1. Added a pilot.
2. Cleaned up the panel, added a working park brake lever, added the
remaining placards, added "materials lighting for the remaining
switches and knobs tied to the nave light switch.
3. Doubled the resolution of the transparent rgb, added propdisc spin,
and realigned all in the ac file so the spin was concentric.
- add status line (green: active model -- clicks will plant it;
orange: selected model -- adjustable/removable)
- make manually selected models active (that is: further clicks will plant
this model type); doesn't apply to automatically selected models (after
removing)
- cleanup
TODO: yet more cleanup, add missing terminal output, etc.
that the --dme option sets the switch position correctly, but the
preferences.xml file is read after that and sets the switch back to 1.
And then we do *correctly* get nav1. Ideally, we would only let
preferences set the switch position if it wasn't set before, but
for now lets just comment that out there.
I have implemented a Honeywell MK VIII EGPWS emulation for FlightGear.
The MK VIII is an Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System aimed at
regional turboprop and small turbofan aircrafts such as the Citation,
Citation Bravo, B1900D, Beechcraft 99 and L410.
Frederic Bouvier:
make the MSVC compilation possible. Rearrange base package directories.
I put 3 patches and a sound file in this tar. The c172p... patch
removes an unnecessary patch I submitted to the c172p. It has no affect
on performance. The Instruments-3d... patch adds a working skid ball to
the tc and switches the vor xmls to using params so it is easier to
edit. It also constrains the glide-slope needle to -32 to 32 degrees.
The pa24-250... patch fixes an edit error (corrects a misnamed switch
"click", no change in performance) and adds a "squish" sound to the
primer pump action.
Here is a patch that included the changes in my 2/22/06 posting plus the
3d-instrument light "emission" animations. I also added a magnetic
compas mount and moved it forward and down to better match the real ac
and make it easier to read when adjusting the hi. Ignore the "?" flaged
files at the beginning. none are required. I noticed that there is a
backup copy of pa24-250.ac in the pa24-250 folder in cvs. It can be
deleted. The only copy of that file required is in pa24-25/Models.
I "flew" a shake down instrument XC from 2v2 (Longmont, CO) to KLVN
(Airlake, just south of Minneapolis, MN). Even the fuel management is
realistic. The autopilot on the menu bar works well. Give the changes
a try and enjoy!
