===Video tutorials=== | |||
Over the past year, more and more [[Video Tutorials]] have been produced for FlightGear, so that it seemed sensible to set up a special wiki site for them, sorted by categories. Feel free to 1) make more video tutorials and 2) add them to the list. When making a video tutorial, please try to keep a certain standard: Video tutorials should have a good video resolution so that users can see what's happening on the screen, and they should have text or voice comment so that users understand what's being done. | Over the past year, more and more [[Video Tutorials]] have been produced for FlightGear, so that it seemed sensible to set up a special wiki site for them, sorted by categories.

===Instrument glass reflection tutorial=== | |||
Horacio has written an excellent short tutorial to show how to add glass reflection effect to instruments, using graphic tools, so that the reflection effect is already contained in the main instrument image, and not depending on shaders meaning less CPU load. The result is widely satisfactory and very realistic. | |||

===Helipad category=== | |||
We have a new wiki category for helipads, as a sub-category of the [[:Category:Airports|airports category]]. So far, only the [[oil platforms]] can be found there, but others could be added, like hospital helipads or ANWB/ADAC/ÖAMTC heliports. | |||
