Default hangar does not update

Postby KP164 » Wed Sep 09, 2020 4:57 pm

Hi.
I have noticed that since yesterday planes from default hangar "http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/flightgear/ftp/Aircraft-trunk/catalog.xml" does not update, even if there are new versions on "https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgaddon/HEAD/tree/trunk/Aircraft/". Did adress of hangar changed? I am using Flightgear version 2020.1.2
Thank you in advance for any information.

no, the address did not change... remember, too, that mirrors *pull* their updates on their own schedules... it is likely that the mirror in question just needs a loving touch to return it to updating properly... have you contacted its maintainer?

"Why not?" said Gurder.

I have found, that this problem applies to all planes from official repository, that have been upgraded since about 7th september (maybe a bit earlier) regardless of who the author is. It looks like the repository is no longer updated. I have installed the latest version 2020.1.3, but it does not help.

i ask again, have you contacted the repository maintainer about this? IIRC, that would be curt... you can PM or email him from that link ;)

Now default hangar works and shows available updates, but many of planes still does not update in case of problem with control sum, that appears during updating process.

In my case: Cessna 140 by D-ECHO, Cessna 208B by ePilot DH Mosquito by Ludovic Brenta and Detlef Faber and DHC 1 by Emmanuel BARANGER, but it may also involve other planes that I have not installed earlier. Some other planes, like SAAB Viggen and Mirage 2000 updated without any problems.

After updating to 2020.3.2 problem reappeared. Aircraft-2020 repository was updated yesterday (as shown on http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/flightgear/ftp/), but updates dos not show on install/update menu in game.

Could it for example be that not all aircraft had updates to them?

There are many planes since the last update of Aircraft-2020 repository (7th November) like Mosquito, T-28, but for any of them update option doesn't appear in game menu.
