A very special thanks is due to the following people and groups.
|
|
|
|
Note, as hard as I've tried, I've found it impossible to perfectly
|
|
maintain this file. If you are aware of someone who you think might
|
|
be included here, PLEASE let me know. Projects like this are made
|
|
possible only by the help and hard work of others. I want to properly
|
|
credit everyone who has contributed to this project.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Raoul Alonzo <amil@las.es>. Mr. Alonzo is the author of Ssystem and
|
|
provided his kind permission for using the moon texture. I also used
|
|
parts of his code as a template when adding the texture.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Michele America <nomimarketing@mail.telepac.pt>
|
|
Contributed to the HUD code.

|
|
|
|
|
Steve Baker <sbaker@link.com>
|
|
- Author of plib which contains pui (portable opengl based user interface)
|
|
sl (portable audio library) js (linux joystick interface class)
|
|
sg (simple geometry library) ssg (simple scene graph library)
|
|
- Steve has provided an immense amount of coaching and tutelage,
|
|
both on the subjects of flight simulation and OpenGL. It has been
|
|
his comments and thoughts that have prompted the implementation of
|
|
most of the more sophisticated features of Flight Gear.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Michael Basler <pmb@knUUt.de>
|
|
Coauthor of the Getting Started guide.

Jon S. Berndt <jsb@hal-pc.org>
|
|
Working on a complete C++ rewrite/reimplimentation of the core FDM.
|
|
Initially he is using X15 data to test his code, but once things are
|
|
all in place we should be able to simulator arbitrary aircraft.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Paul Bleisch <pbleisch@acm.org>
|
|
Paul redid the "debug" system so that it would be much more
|
|
flexible, so it could be easily disabled for production system, and
|
|
so that messages for certain subsystems could be selectively
|
|
enabled.
|
|
|
|
Also contributed a first stab at a config file/command line parsing
|
|
system.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
Provided a big chunk of online space to store USA scenery for Flight Gear.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bernie Bright <bbright@c031.aone.net.au>

Gene Buckle <geneb@nwlink.com>
|
|
Gene has done a lot of work getting FG to compile with the MSVC++
|
|
compiler. Also, he has pushed, proded, and bugged me endlessly to
|
|
do my stuff right. (I mean that in a good way, because sometimes
|
|
when the little nudge in the right direction isn't working, I need
|
|
a good hard shove.) :-)
