New in 0.7.9
|
||||||
|
* February 16, 2002
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* MSVC fixes.
|
||||||
|
* IRIX fixes.
|
||||||
|
* FreeBSD fixes.
|
||||||
|
* Mac OS X fixes.
|
||||||
|
* Better cygwin and mingwin support.
|
||||||
|
* Better support for gcc-3.0
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Added an autogen.sh script for those compiling from CVS code.
|
||||||
|
* Attempt to support more incompatible varients of the
|
||||||
|
automake/autoconf tools.
|
||||||
|
* Added basic man pages.
|
||||||
|
* Removed old remnants of plib-1.2.x support. Plib-1.4.x is now required.
|
||||||
|
* Added support for building mandrake packages (other packaging system
|
||||||
|
contributions welcom.)
|
||||||
|
* Various initialization and startup sequence fixes and tweaks.
|
||||||
|
This helps get the flight dynamics model going reliably and robustly.
|
||||||
|
It also helps get initial time of day effects correct.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed a config problem that could lead to bogus builds for people with
|
||||||
|
Voodoo cards.
|
||||||
|
* Better support for running with an alternate time/date for when we
|
||||||
|
are being slaved to an external data source.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed (simplistic) terrain following autopilot mode.
|
||||||
|
* Fixes to problems with window aspect ratio that could surface if the
|
||||||
|
window was resized.
|
||||||
|
* Fix several off by one errors in hud_card.cxx
|
||||||
|
* Fix gauge spelling error.
|
||||||
|
* Modified FGSubsystem::update() to take an int parameter for delta time.
|
||||||
|
* Many internal fixes and enhancements to the core code that manages
|
||||||
|
instrument panel modeling and rendering.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed a bug preventing the LaRCsim engine from starting.
|
||||||
|
* EGT doesn't show 'running' values while cranking.
|
||||||
|
* Fixes to JSBSim so that the slip/skid ball is much more realistically modelled
|
||||||
|
* Added support for an unlimited number of fuel tanks.
|
||||||
|
* Multi-engine throttle fixes.
|
||||||
|
* A round of updates to the UIUC flight dynamics model.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed an annoying tile cache scheduling bug. This makes tile paging
|
||||||
|
much more robust even with teleporting and reseting.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed a potential mouse freeze up condition on windows.
|
||||||
|
* Converted the materials file to xml.
|
||||||
|
* Tweaked and updated initial option and config file parsing to be
|
||||||
|
more intuitive and robust.
|
||||||
|
* Check for the proper version of the base file and exit gracefully
|
||||||
|
if not found.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed a problem with the initial view offset being lost.
|
||||||
|
* Various floating point / initial value bug fixes
|
||||||
|
* Added support for tracing property manager reads and writes (for
|
||||||
|
debugging purposes.)
|
||||||
|
* Fixed the problem where the simulator clock time would go goofy
|
||||||
|
when scenery was being loaded.
|
||||||
|
* Make the tile cache system more tolerant of situations where the tile
|
||||||
|
cache is full, but no entry qualifies for removal.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Added an entirely new set of flight dynamics modeling code by Andy Ross.
|
||||||
|
Includes several aircraft such as a 747, A4, and DC-3.
|
||||||
|
This is (Y)et (A)nother Flight Dynamics (Sim)ulator. It is a first cut
|
||||||
|
of a "different take" on FDM design. It's intended to be very simple
|
||||||
|
to use, producing reasonable results for aircraft of all sorts and sizes,
|
||||||
|
while maintaining simulation plausibility even in odd flight conditions
|
||||||
|
like spins and aerobatics. It's at the point now where one can
|
||||||
|
actually fly the planes around.
|
||||||
|
* Added an optional embedded http server that provides a property
|
||||||
|
manager interface to external programs and scripts.
|
||||||
|
* Added an optional embedded http server that can serve out live
|
||||||
|
screen shots to anyone on the web.
|
||||||
|
* Sync with the latest JSBSim code.
|
||||||
|
* Added simple ATIS support.
|
||||||
|
* More flexible autopilot that can be tuned per aircraft.
|
||||||
|
* Many updates to the HUD to allow it to handle a much bigger set of
|
||||||
|
symbology and functionality
|
||||||
|
* Support for back course ILS approaches.
|
||||||
|
* Implimented DME ETE and speed.
|
||||||
|
* Added support for rudder and aileron trim.
|
||||||
|
* Many improvents with piston engine and propeller modeling. Engine
|
||||||
|
startup procedures work, and engine guages work.
|
||||||
|
* Added support for retractable gear.
|
||||||
|
* Added 'master freeze' and 'fuel freeze' modes. Would like to add
|
||||||
|
other freeze modes soon.
|
||||||
|
* Added a 'high' level aircraft config file that specifies things like
|
||||||
|
the FDM code to use, the aircraft config file, the 3d model, the
|
||||||
|
instrument panel, autopilot config, etc.
|
||||||
|
* Added a neat external 'chase' view control panel.
|
||||||
|
* Added a GUI interface to the property manager system.
|
||||||
|
* Moved keybinding definitions to a config file.
|
||||||
|
* Many additions and improvements to the sound effects including
|
||||||
|
stall horn, tire squeek, ground rumble, wind noise, flaps, etc.
|
||||||
|
* Enable introduction music in windows (off by default on all platforms)
|
||||||
|
* Added support for the OpenGC glass cockpit project.
|
||||||
|
* Added support for flying ILS approaches in both runway directions if the
|
||||||
|
same frequency is used in both cases.
