CRRCsim
|
Crrcsim is a model-airplane flight simulation program. Using it, you can learn how to fly model aircraft, test new aircraft designs, and improve your skills by practicing on your computer.
Currently there are five means of adapting crrcsim to your needs:
1. Hit escape to show the graphical user interface and change settings there. As of today, the important (but not all) settings can be adjusted there.
2. Editing the file crrcsim.xml. This is the new config file for crrcsim. It does not look that easy, but it provides structure, which has several advantages. Once you understood that structure (just try), you'll know how to handle most things. Not every option in this file is effective yet. Some are written down so a developer knows what to implement in the future and how to configure it. Take a look at this file.
3. Using command-line options. call crrcsim --help to see what's available. Anything specified on the command line should override what's given in one of the files. The airplane to be used can only be configured using command-line options!
4. Modifying crrc_config.h before compiling the program. Currently you can change some keybindings there.
5. Editing the source code. This is just for developers, of course.
The binding of buttons and axes can be configured via the GUI. For joystick and mouse input you can make use of input scaling.
Several methods of plugging your transmitter to the computer are available. Most things can be configured using the graphical user interface.
zoom.control can be set to one of: MOUSE, KEYBOARD
You can adjust the initial altitude (relative to ground), velocity (factor to the airplane's natural speed) and angle of an airplane.
Wind and thermals can be configured in the GUI. Settings are saved only for the current location, to haev good presets for every location.
If you want to use the PARALLEL port interface, you need an additional DLL called dlportio.dll. If you're not planning to use the PARALLEL interface, you don't need this DLL.
Due to licensing issues we are not allowed to provide the required DLPORTIO.DLL with CRRCSim. This means that you have to install it from a separate package.
The license of this software is Free, you can free download and free use this arcade game software.
