Hi,
I have tared my last patches into one archive to make it easier to test
them. All were already posted to the list. (the only difference is in
the in-game-help-pages of the aircrafts.)
It contains patches for
- ground properties (e.g. feel bumpiness and the reduced friction of
grass or go swimming with the beaver)
- initial load for yasim gears (to get rid of the jitter the beaver has
on ground)
- glider/winch/aerotow (do winch start with YASim glider or do aerotow
over the net) I will place a how-to on the wiki soon, herw very short:
use the sgs233y (or the bocian if you have AJ (up ot now) non-GPL
bocian)
winch start: Ctrl-w for placing the winch, hold w to winch, press
Shift-w to release the tow
aerotow: Place the glider within 60m to a MP-aircraft, press
Ctrl-t to tow to this aircraft. If the MP-aircraft is the J3 and the
patch is installed on both sides, the J3 feels the forces, too.
The J3-pilot has to taxi very slow up to the moment, the
glider starts moving. Increase the throttle gently. Don't lift the J3
early, wait for the glider being lifted, lift gently.
The new files hitch.?pp need to be placed in the yasim directory and to
be added to the project files (fgfs and yasim-test).
All patches work with head/osg and plib. The ground-property patch did
not work properly on water with head/osg due to a bug in the
groundcache. Mathias did some work on the groundcache, I have to test,
if it now works (I had a workaround for the groundcache bug). With the
groundcache bug the beaver sinks into the water and the aircraft crashes.
The documentation (readme.yasim) only contains the new gear-features.
The new glider features I will add soon.
Maik
