[This is Riley's original README file]
|
||||
|
||||
acm Flight Simulator version 2.0
|
||||
|
||||
What is acm?
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Acm is a LAN-oriented, multiplayer aerial combat simulation. My main design
|
||||
objective was to provide source code that could be easily compiled and
|
||||
executed on a wide variety of platforms. To that end, acm is written entirely
|
||||
in C, exploiting the programming features of Unix, X11, and the BSD socket
|
||||
interface.
|
||||
|
||||
Players engage in air to air combat against one another using heat seeking
|
||||
missiles and cannons.
|
||||
|
||||
Acm exists as two programs. The first, named "acm", is a small program
|
||||
that, when invoked, starts a flight session on a given workstation. The
|
||||
second component, named "acms", is a server process that manages the
|
||||
multiplayer environment. It also manages the flight simulation and
|
||||
display management that is required. Most players will prefer to run the
|
||||
acms process on a back-end server system on their local area network. Players
|
||||
at client workstations can then invoke the acm program to begin play.
|
||||
|
||||
I play acm using a server that is a Mips RC3240 (rated at roughly 18.5
|
||||
SPECmarks). I get very adequate display performance using a Mips RS2030
|
||||
color workstation (10.0 SPECmarks) or an NCD monochrome X terminal. My
|
||||
choice of servers is probably overkill. I suspect that an 10+ SPECmark
|
||||
system could handle a typical mutiplayer load.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the second release of acm. The original version has been ported
|
||||
to a variety of Unix derivatives and system architectures.

What's different with revision 2.0:
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The flight simulation model has been substantially revamped.
|
||||
|
||||
Rudder controls have been added.
|
||||
|
||||
Monochrome support has been added with the generous help of Glen Dudek
|
||||
(dudek@ksr.com).
|
||||
|
||||
Filenames have been shortened, where required, to get along with System V
|
||||
conventions.
|
||||
|
||||
Substantial corrections and enhancements to the portability of this code
|
||||
were provided by Johnathan Kamens (jik@Athena.MIT.EDU). imake can now
|
||||
be used to build the entire product tree.
|
||||
|
||||
Sun-specific changes were provided by Dave Safford (auvsaff@auvsun.tamu.edu).
|
||||
|
||||
A bug that prevented acm from operating with certain window managers
|
||||
has been corrected.
|
||||
|
||||
Lead Computing Optical Sight (LCOS) support has been added to the
|
||||
cannon weapon display. A reticle (sight) is displayed on the HUD, showing
|
||||
a good aiming sight for the cannon.
|
||||
|
||||
Cannons will now inflict damage on other aircraft.
|
||||
|
||||
Aircraft can now be damaged, but remain airworthy.
|
||||
|
||||

||||

||||
GENERAL NOTES
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
This software is divided into two major parts: the 3-D graphics routines
|
||||
and the flight simulator itself. The 3-D stuff is contained in the V
|
||||
directory. V/lib holds the library itself. V/test contains a program
|
||||
that can be used to test your port of the V library.
|
||||
|
||||
Fsim contains the remainder of the flight simulator. imake and make files
|
||||
have been provided. The code has a Berkeley tilt to it in many
|
||||
places, so people with hybrid OS's will probably want to lean that
|
||||
direction when selecting compiling and linking options.
|
||||
|
||||
Acm binaries can be installed in your standard games directory. In addition
|
||||
to running "make install" to install the executables, you must run the
|
||||
"install-objects" script.
|
||||
|
||||
The acm server, acms, must currently be started manually. It's intended
|
||||
that it will eventually be managed automatically by inetd, but that's
|
||||
not in the code yet. I have access to a network that includes a 16+ SPECMark
|
||||
server and 12 to 18 SPECMark workstations (i.e. a MIPS 3240 along with
|
||||
MIPS 2030 and Magnum workstations) (translate SPECMarks into millions of
|
||||
instructions per second by whatever formula you like ..). I generally
|
||||
rlogin to the 3240 and start the acms process on it and leave that xterm
|
||||
window hanging around; then, from another xterm window, I'll fire off
|
||||
the acm command that starts my flying session. Other players enter the
|
||||
game by simply firing off an "acm servername" command.
|
||||
|
||||
I'm not saying that acm is a particularly accurate flight simulator. I'm
|
||||
not an aero engineer, but I did spend a fair amount of time studying
|
||||
several college-level texts on the subject while I was designing this
|
||||
software. This probably doesn't resemble real-time flight simulators
|
||||
too much but, again, that's not my line of work. Comments and
|
||||
suggestions to improve this software are welcome.
|
||||
|
||||
Several "features" in this revision of the software:
|
||||
|
||||
* landing gear is ignored. Raise it, lower it; it's
|
||||
not handled by the software.
|
||||
|
||||
* flaps can be lowered at rediculously high speeds.
|
||||
|
||||
* you can fly through mountains.
|
||||
|
||||
* engines do not flame-out. Fly really high (and fast enough)
|
||||
and you can just about get into orbit. Non-afterburning
|
||||
engine performance does degrade as altitude increases, but
|
||||
afterburner performance gives the extra kick needed to fly
|
||||
much higher than you should be able to.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
CREDITS
|
||||
|
||||
In the original release, I overlooked several important credits. The
|
||||
input routine at the heart of the acm server is based on code from xtrek
|
||||
that was written by Dan A. Dickey, he has provided some valuable help in
|
||||
improving the robustness of this code. The 3-D routines were written by
|
||||
me, but are based closely on two valuable articles from the March and
|
||||
April 1981 issues of Byte Magazine titled "Three-Dimensional Computer
|
||||
Graphics" by Franklin C. Crow.
