<big>'''fg-from-scratch'''</big> | |||
fg-from-scratch has received a major update. The latest version is available via [https://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/fgmeta/ FGMeta]. | |||
The script now supports a {-wt | --whitetext } option to address the "white-text" issue. This option will force an override from the normal OSG source repository over to James' customized version containing the white-text fix. | |||
* Usage: fg-from-scratch.cmd -wt > scratch.log 2>&1 | |||
See the ''README.md'' file for more information. | |||
In addition, the folder organization has been improved and the script now helps to ensure that the ''vcpkg'' folder stays current. | |||
Those upgrading to the new version are encouraged to start with a clean build. | |||
