Hello,
I have a terrain database in flight14.2 format. I used pfconv with no
command modifiers to convert to pfb format (pfconv master.flt master.pfb).
The increase in load speed is incredible but I find that the resulting pfb
database is approximately 1/3 the size (in area not disk space). The 4
degree by 4 degree flight database now measures slightly over 1x1 degree in
size in pfb format. The original database is built in feet, not meters.
Could that be causing the problem. I have checked the mailing list
archives and am in the process of going through the pfconv source code for
clues.
I amusing an OCTANE running IRIX 6.4 and Performer 2.2. I see the same on
IRIX 6.5.7 with Performer 2.2.7.
I realize I have provided limited information but any tips would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks for your time
