Re: [Flightgear-devel] How can I make a flight simulator like FGFS?

[Curtis O. <cur...@gm...>]

"Because I want to" is the truthful answer to a surprising number of
engineering related decisions, so I think that is ok to say.  If you want
to be fancy, you can call it "engineering judgement." :-)

But your question is not something that can be answered in an email or
two.  I can't find it now, but an interesting thing I saw in the last year
or two (or more?) was a guy building a sim software using Cesium (which is
a realistic world model on top of one of the proprietary game engines.)  He
hacked something together that looked and moved in a very compelling way,
but it was a quick hack so I don't think it had any depth to it.  I think
if you googled around you could find more than a few demos and hacks and
tutorials that would get you started and help you scratch the itch.

Good luck!

Curt.
