It's more robust now, and gives some helpfull information if something
goes wrong. Also the naming in the options.xml file has changed to the
syntax David suggested.
Since no one objected to the patch I think it is safe to included it.
I changed the sound code to let it use FGCondition. This changes the
code and configuration files rather drastically. Furthermore I've added
an in-transit mode which plays the sound only when the tied property is
changing.
Changes:
Code:
* Added condition support to trigger an event
* Removed the <type> section from the main event definition
(this could be done using conditions)
* Removed the abillity to use several events with the same name,
instead it is required to use conditions.
* Updated the README.xmlsound
Base package:
* Changed the configuration files accordingly.
* Changed flaps and gear to use the new in-stransit mode.
* Changed the flps.wav file so it can be looped.
* Created a new gear.wav file (whcih can be looped)
and a gear-lck.wav file for gear locking sound.
IMPORTANT:
To change existing configuration files to the new ones, it is important
to pack events with the same name together into one singel event, using
the condition specification. Also, when using special types (inverted,
flip-flop, raise or fall) these should be changed to a conditions also.
For more information, please look at
FLightGear/docs-mini/README.xmlsound and the supplied aircraft
configuration files located under FlightGear/Aircraft (espesially
c172/c172-sound.xml and c310/c310-sound.xml).
aircraft that do not have 3d cockpit configured. Toggling is done with the
"c" key. Note also that for now, since the 3d models don't have a "small"
panel defined, the "s" key is disabled if "allow-toggle-cockpit" is true.
These are the updates for the View manager properties. Removed the last of
items (within the viewer/viewmgr) hard coded to view number. Added support
for per view configuration of ground level nearplane value. Tower views look
very nice with little or no z-buffer problem in the models. Pilot offset
dialog can be used to move eye in all views.
