SceneryDesign.org As Nick already hinted at in his recent blog post, we have finally started to implement the change to the FsDeveloper website that I already talked about before. Today I have played with the settings to integrate the wiki and the forums a lot better and I can say that I got it working quite […]
Some changes ahead
We have been planning this for a while already, but now the implementation is getting close. So I think this is a nice time to talk a little bit about it as well. In an attempt to make the [FsDeveloper] webiste even more useful we will be making some changes soon. The most important are: […]
Preserve those geo tags
A while ago I wrote about using FwTools to create or manipulate GeoTIFF images for use with the resample tool. One common problem I did not mention right then is that the tags containing this geo information are not understood by every tool. If you for example open the image in a painting program, like […]
Some Wiki maintenance

The FsX MDL format

At the moment mainly the sections involved in a simple scenery object are covered, as that is the part I mainly looked at for the ModelConverterX tool until now. Hopefully this page is useful to other programmers as […]
Is it a gift to annoy people?
Over the last few days I found out that spammers have found a new way to annoy me. This time they are not spamming my blog or my email accounts (well, they are still spamming my email, but not more than usual). I noticed that on the Talk/Discussion pages of the FsDeveloper Wiki they have […]
New Wiki launched
Until now the launch of FsDeveloper has been a great success. Nick and I are very happy with the amount of discussion that is already going on. The site has also attracked a lot of well-known names already. So it looks our idea of creating a place where addon developers can have friendly discussions worked. […]
