![]() In general, the development version is not advised to the average user, but if you are willing to do some testing there is a nightly build for Windows or Mac available for download from the FlightGear build server, and a Ubuntu PPA updated daily. Most Linux users will find that most distributions have a packaged version of FlightGear (the package name could be fgfs or flightgear.)ĭepending on your technical expertise you may choose the Git development version of FlightGear, which typically has more features and can be required by some of the latest developmental aircraft, but can be unstable and is more complicated to get for non-Windows users. AppImage binary files for Linux are also available with 2020.3 LTS and later. Choose the source or binary files appropriate for your particular system. You may download the latest files from the FlightGear download page. See notebooks known to run FlightGear for reviews of several laptop systems. Many laptops are known to have issues with FlightGear, as the graphics card(s) on them are usually lower-end. This is usually not a problem, but take a look at the hardware recommendations to have a better idea. Installation and setup Hardware requirementsįor FlightGear to run smoothly, it requires a video card with OpenGL drivers 2.0 or higher. 5.2 Customizing FlightGear without compiling it.On the other hand I was totally surprised that FlightGear recognized my Saitek Aviator and already had a built in profile that assigned functions to the various buttons and switches. Too bad that Nvidia Inspector doesn't have a profile ready to select for FlightGear. The flight dynamics of the amphib float version of the DHC-2 Beaver that came with FlightGear seemed to be pretty much on the money and I was very pleased to see that the water created about the same amount drag as it does in FSX and not the molasses that passes for water in FS2004! I actually preferred the flap control and reaction of the Beaver to flap extension and retraction in FlightGear over the default FSX Beaver or the Aerosoft Beaver X. Many surprises, some positive and some negative, but all and all better than I thought it would be (but not as good as I hoped it would be). So I downloaded and installed FlightGear 2.4.0 and I took a stab at downloading what looked like the 10x10 degree chunk of scenery that covered Vancouver Island (guessed right too).
