Downloada little and 'mininalist' 3D Flight simulator, accompanied also by a dydactical example that illustrates the concept behind flight simulators. FlightCraft3D anyway goes a lot beyond: is physically realistic, and allowes landing everywhere. It aims at becoming a game focused on casual landing, among trees, rocks and buildings and so on.

It shall be a sort of Minecraft-focused-on-aeromobilism. Simply implemented, but with many interesting features. I plan to do also a non-GL version that displays whole 3D gfx with a procedure at whose end pixels are displayed with SDL, asciiart, of native Linux X11 graphics of native Win graphics. Ofc ourse OpenGL is very useful for displaying nice trees... .
it's a single sourcefile program.
USAGE: in any Linux/UNIX system (es.Ubuntu) download the zip and place it in your home directory; extract the zip. open a Terminal and navigate int the folder of the game;type this: "make";press ENTER; double-click the a.out
Features
- realistic physics, also at landing and collisions
- airplane will be made deformable
- trees around, which shall be solid later on, but damagable. Yes: desertification will be possible, as well as airport-construction... .
- textured graphics
- soon there shall be positionable buildings/blocks to make experiments on casual landing, and stunts
- very simple sourcecode
- internal view, rotable. it is a little awkward to get right point of view but it works: once the point of view was set good, it is acceptably good.
- only SDL and OpenGL needed to compile and run
- Also a non-OpenGL versin will be made
- airplane shape is automatically read in from a file, but a better polyhedron model of the airplane is needed
