Yes, I know you under many many different UIDs.
And I know that I warned You many many times - at least 10 times I even "neglected" you! Then you came back and begged like above - and I was stupid enough trusting your promises again and again!

But sorry: After that many times I am not even considering to trust your promises any more - and that means I will never again get into the danger to get insulted from you (in addition to your other misbehaves - flying and personal).

Anyhow I do not see why you "cant fly and live my(your) passion" everywhere else.
(See also my note in viewtopic.php?f=84&t=31354 )
Sorry - but enough is enough!

First visit of the Mav Force One to Frankfurt airport with nice ATC service on approach a few days ago:

TerraGIT for EDDF

Last night I used 1st time the terraGIT scenery - see the new airport layout
* as picture: http://wiki.flightgear.org/File:EDDF-terraGIT.png (Just scenery! No customers yet!)
* or in film e.g.: http://www.emmerich-j.de/EDDF/Films/201 ... 758-84.ogv (and later)
* or in future films on http://www.emmerich-j.de/EDDF/Films.html

If you want to try it yourself: Just install according to https://github.com/FGMEMBERS-TERRAGIT/terraGIT. That will build up a parallel terraGIT-directory - so you can easily switch between the old/new scenery rather easy. You just have to define in your start-program :
* either: --fg-scenery=/home/YourName/.fgfs/terraGIT (the new)
* or: --fg-scenery=/usr/share/games/flightgear/Scenery (the old)
(Above is for Ubuntu - but Windows, MAC, etc are similar - it is all done within your existing startup settings!).

BUT: Sorry enough: "Best Quality" needs a lot more PC-power! So you may notice in today's Films some "crashes" - which I still have to resolve! But your PC will certainly not be loaded as high as my ATC-setup -- and I believe it would be worthwhile using that new scenery.

To give you an idea: Right now my PC has
* ubuntu 17.04 (64-bit)
* AMD FX(tm)-4300 Quad-Core Processor × 4
* 12 GiB memory
* using 2 screens 1920*1080 on NVIDIA GTX 650
running in parallel are the following applications:
# OpenRadar, FGFS-ORCAM, Chromium-Web, FileManager, Mumble, RecordMyDesktop, 2 Supporting-Text-files,

So the next days I will try some tuning and hope to solve my "crashes" soon!
Have fun with it.

As the layouts, these objects at EDDF come from pommeschranke import of X-plane gateway 3D objects than everyone can submit to Terrasync, terragit or custom base terrain. Its true that you need a strong PC without crashes or graphic problems but there're LOD improvements and 3D optimisations to solve that.

Jomo :
Try some lightweight Linux distro like XUbuntu or LUbuntu. Unity desktop is very memory hungry.

Thank you all for your comments and support:

Yes - I know his Project 3000 for Airports / Sorry I forget to write it - but at least I already thanked him when he was visiting us on MUMBLE at EDDF. And surely I am also very grateful to all the guys/girls of terraGIT (but I wonder why d.laser did not yet know his EDDF /and others) was already in TerraGIT).

Pls also see that film 2 from yesterday: (http://www.emmerich-j.de/EDDF/Films/201 ... 003-56.ogv, starting at about 37min) - there are several spots showing also the traces of CPU, Memory, and network. According to that I do NOT believe it is mainly the memory (that pritty stable stays on less the 50% of 12 GB!),. I rather suspect my other supporting applications like
* "RecordMyDesktop" now copying on 7 FramesPerSecond +Sound! - I will try 5 frames (While FGFS FrameRate is at about 12!)
* the paralell FGFS-OrCam I must keep
* but I will try to live without MPmap (for the time being)
* etc

In addition I found one more serious problem: Whenever I enable the Jetway's I get for each of the 120 jetways an error
"savexml: writing to 'Path "/home/emmerich/.fgfs/runtime-jetways/24.xml"' denied (unauthorized directory - authorization no longer follows symlinks)".
That one I do not understand at all. I tried to add the link "/home/emmerich/.fgfs/runtime" into the --fg-root and --fg-scenery and --fg-aircraft --> but that did not help. Anybody has an idea? But that is not the most urgent problem - right now I operate without the jetways.

Thank you all

New EDDF scenery is near perfect. Moving maglev (or what is it ?) is #1 ! But there is one small bug - I can't see here Jomo's private Concorde

[Wecsje]

Do you mean the Skytrain? I checked this evening in the EDDF scenery, and as far as I know it is in the correct place... (it's a monorail btw, Maglev's are to expensive, although you can find one at Shanghai airport)

[V12]

Yes, I mean Skytrain. Thanx for explanation.

xxx-246 posted a nice film about an approach to EDDF - I think it's very nice and interesting. So you might want to see it too:

BlueYellow Models in EDDF films
We get more and more "BlueYellows" during our events - out of 2 reasons:

1) They have been disabled by me because they disturb/crash other MP-users (those are listed above the Table of films on http://www.emmerich-j.de/ )

2) They are not in the standard FGFS-Listing http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/flightgear/ftp/Aircraft/
nor in the https://github.com/FGMEMBERS

But sorry enough there are over 50 FGFS-hangars (see: http://www.flightgear.org/download/download-aircraft/) with lots of more planes - but sorry: I will not constantly maintain all that possibilities!

If in future I get a BlueYellow i will check the above two sources and load if available -- but that's it! If you want to use a model that is just in one of the other hangars, you should accept that it shows up only as a BlueYellow - or ask the designer to make it available in one of the above two sources - so that everybody can see them within an MP-event.

Comments are welcome

I know this is not an ideal solution, but maybe you and your "clients" like it better than seeing BlueYellows in the movies. Instead of the BlueYellow glider you could use another "more standard" model, like a low-poly 747 from the AI aircrafts. It's not accurate and it will probably clip on/float over the ground when landing if the real aircraft is bigger/smaller than the default model you used, but for approaches and take offs it works kind of nicely.

Instead of the BlueYellow glider you could use another "more standard" model, ...

Thx - very interesting idea! I will try to do that (but may take a few days).
