This is a prototype snap of FlightGear. Only the application is built. The FlightGear data files must be downloaded separately and placed in $HOME/snap/flightgear/common/fgdata. In a future release we may automate this. For now, manually:
SUCCESS (almost)Just wanted to tell you, since I've been trying hard to find any useful information. I use Manjaro (latest version) with XFCE and installed this package together with flightgear-data. It seems to work.
It will be better to ask this question on the LabVIEW forums. This will likely require someone to be familiar with whatever data flightgear sends and receives (hopefully the flightgear documentation is clear on this). Past that, using the UDP VIs should be pretty simple, and you should be able to find help on the LabVIEW forum for that.
1. I downloaded the folders "cvi_include" and "FlightGear" which have header and makeucb.bat, makeucb.mk, usrFlightGear.c and
CallFlightGear.cat etc. Do I have to copy these files in the FlightGearVIs (TestLVToFG.vi) folder or in the flightgear aircraft model folder?
You can obtain FlightGear software from www.flightgear.org in the download area or by ordering CDs from FlightGear. The download area contains extensive documentation for installation and configuration. Because FlightGear is an open source project, source downloads are also available for customization and porting to custom environments.
You must have a high-performance graphics card with stable drivers to use FlightGear. For more information, see the FlightGear CD distribution or the hardware requirements and documentation areas of the FlightGear website, www.flightgear.org.
FlightGear distributions are available for Linux, Mac OS X, and other UNIX platforms from the FlightGear website, www.flightgear.org. Installation on these platforms, like Windows, requires careful configuration of graphics cards and drivers. Consult the documentation and hardware requirements sections at the FlightGear website.
