[Flightgear-devel] Objects in a location for which no terrain tile exists

[dene m. <den...@ho...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to put a couple of off-shore oil platforms in a location that no 
terrain tile exists by creating a new objects folder and stg file (x2). 
Unfortunately they don't appear.

I'm running 098a... can anyone remember if there was such a problem in 098a? 
and hopefully what the solution was (pleeez don't let it be upgrade to 099 
or 09.10 ...my hardware won't support it).

I didn't create a \e170s40\e173s40 folder in the terrain directory...only 
the objects directory.

5786769.stg

contains;

OBJECT_SHARED Models/fgfsdb/oilrig-deck.xml 173.315680 -39.646950 0 0


and

5786777.stg

contains;

OBJECT_SHARED Models/fgfsdb/oilrig-deck.xml 173.449360 -39.556700 0 0


the oilrig-deck.xml file is;

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<PropertyList>

<path>oilrig.ac</path>

<animation>
  <type>range</type>
  <min-m>0</min-m>
  <max-m>25000</max-m>
</animation>

</PropertyList>

and the oilrig.ac files is in the same fgfsdb directory

any ideas anyone?

Cheers
:-D ene
