NAME

SearchAndRescue - Air rescue flight simulator

SYNTAX

SearchAndRescue [options] [GUI_options]

DESCRIPTION

Helicopter based search and rescue flight simulator. Pilot a variety of user editable rescue aircraft through customizeable missions and rescue victims in distress. Uses OpenGL and glX for graphics, and for sound Ylib (deprecated as obsolete), SDL and SDL_Mixer (optional) and libjsw for joystick support (not available on all platforms).

OPTIONS

--config <file>
Load configuration from <file>.
--rcfile
Same as --config.
-f
Same as --config.
--control <type>
Specify which controller to use at start up. <type> can be keyboard (default) or joystick.
-c
Same as --control.
--hardware_rendering
Use direct hardware rendering (default).
--software_rendering
Use software rendering instead of direct hardware rendering.
--full_menu_redraw
Always perform full (not partial) menu redraws (slow but required for certain accelerated video cards).
--display <address>
Specifies display address (UNIX/X version only).
--font <name>
Specifies the default font to use on GUI related outputs. Refer to your GUI manual for the proper font name formats.
--geometry <WxH+X+Y>
Specifies the geometry of the toplevel window, example "--geometry 640x480+100+120" to make the window 640 by 480 pixels in size and at coordinate position 100,120 (relative to the root window/desktop).
--fullscreen
Specifies to switch to full screen on startup, use this if and only if your GUI does not support manual switching to full screen. You may need to specify the --geometry argument to specify the size of the full screen resolution.
--aspect_offset <coeff>
Specifies a floating coefficient value to be applied to screen aspect calculations, example a value of -0.2 when your screen is 800 by 600 then the aspect would be 800/600 + (-0.2) = 1.333 - 0.2 = 1.133.
--recorder <address>
Specifies recorder address (UNIX/Y version only).
--nosound
Do not connect to sound server at startup (overrides the value set in the configuration).
--nomenubg
No menu background images (speeds up the redrawing when in the menus).
--console_quiet
Do not print routine messages to stdout.
--runtime_debug
Print debugging runtime detection of various resources to stdout. This may help detect points of failure or crash during startup or exiting.
--internal_debug
Print debugging of internal runtime information (messy and terse) to stdout. This will only print debugging information about internal resources belonging to the program.
--help
Prints (this) help screen and exits.
--version
Prints version information and exits.
