Avionics bugs are part of the SDK – they’re not my bugs so I spoke too quickly about them being at zero. Buuuut…looking at the bug base I don’t see a lot of avionics todo items and we didn’t defer them. (I am referring to the sim here -some of the default planes still need work.)

One thing we are still working on is the starters – they’ve changed their physics model from torque to HP and the translation of the plane-maker setting leaves a lot to be desired.

So if you have an avionics bug, please file it!

Kewl ! I must have missed this.

“In other words, once we have more buildings, more ground terrain, and a better way to turn down detail, the terrain should look more like a real city under a wide range of rendering settings.”

“In most cases the height data is already in the DSF; once we get the right autogen art assets in place, they should start repsonding to the height data.”

Is anybody at LR making any progress with the art assets and ground terrain ?

No – the aircraft SDK contains special handling for alpha – there’s no similar concept for scenery (yet), so you just have to muddle through, and you can’t use alpha nearly as aggressively.

Yeah, that road map is OSM! 😉 I kid, but…

Does marking translucent things “glass” apply to non-aircraft objects too? If so, how to do it?

Your doing an amazing JoB ! Kudos.

Quick question and I know you have your plate full. Is there a road map for the cities ? Or any idias you guys have to make them look more city like ? This is the number one comment/complaint I read about on all of the forums.
