FlightGear is a flight-simulator created by an international group of
|
|
volunteers, and released as free, open-source GPL software.
|
|
It has been used for academic research, education, and for fun.
|
|
|
|
This build includes the internal Qt launcher. To launch FlightGear
|
|
from a terminal window, run 'fgfs --launcher' from the command line.
|
|
(This is how the .desktop file launches it.)
|
|
|
|
If you prefer, you can install either fgo (python2) or ffgo (python3)
|
|
as a more basic launcher. They will launch fgfs directly without the
|
|
'--launcher' parameter.
|
|
|
|
This package now includes the FlightGear-data package, so there is no
|
|
longer a need to build two separate packages.
|
|
|
|
flite is an optional dependency for voice communication (autodetected
|
|
at build time).
|
|
|
|
Note that the source has been moved from Sourceforge to Gitlab.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: FlightGear will build and run in 32-bit, but you will most likely
|
|
have to set your graphics settings fairly low to get any kind of decent
|
|
framerate.
|
|
|
|
BIG FAT NOTE: SimGear and FlightGear will no longer build on current
|
|
because of incompatibilities in boost 1.87 (built fine with 1.86).
