    Orbiter 2024 Launch readiness

    I don't know what exactly you mean by shared DLLs... Shared by (possibly) multiple add-ons? Then I would suggest: <OrbiterRoot>\Modules\Shared\ or <OrbiterRoot>\Modules\Plugin\Shared\ Since both have their reasoning, I cannot decide :D ...aaaaand <OrbiterRoot>\Modules\ and <OrbiterRoot>\ all...

    Request Script Vessels Update to Open Orbiter

    set_animation: argument 1: Invalid type (expected number) nil given is a pretty good description of what went wrong: a call to set_animation was done with the 1st argument being nil It should be pretty easy to find the code that lead to this.

    Project Universal Cars for Orbiter (UCFO) Development Thread

    I'm no valgrind expert, nor a linux developer, but the output of valgrind seems more like telling you that there's a memory-leak (one has constructed an object with "new", but that object is never released - with "delete"). As ther's no delete, valgrind cannot tell you where that is missing - it...

    OHM D3D9 for Orbiter 2016

    Addendum: Just add this line at the end of the script and it will close: exit 0 So "the complete" Script looks like this: The lines starting with "rem" are just comments. Just to remind me what exactly this script is good for ;) These line do nothing (noops) and can be omitted - it's just...

    OHM D3D9 for Orbiter 2016

    Yes it is! Dont' worry. That is just the cmd shell that is still open. I might improve the (shell-)script so that this "atrifact" will close itself too, but I'll have to think about how ;) You see: This is working, but far from being perfect ;) The last tiny bits are the hardest. That's what...

    OHM D3D9 for Orbiter 2016

    Hi, no need to be sorry - let's try to answer your questions: The folder where Orbiter_ng.exe and Orbiter.exe are located. No, the (.bat) Script is "location agnostic". As long as it is located where Orbiter_ng.exe and Orbiter.exe are located, it should work everywhere. No. Just run (double...

    OHM D3D9 for Orbiter 2016

    Like this (StartOrbiter.bat to be located in Orbiter-Root Folder): @echo off if exist "Modules\Server\Config" ( rmdir /S /Q "Modules\Server\Config" ) xcopy "Config" "Modules\Server\Config\" /S /E /Q Orbiter_ng.exe

    OHM D3D9 for Orbiter 2016

    A "work.around-work-around" to keep the Config folders in sync, would be to create a simple batch file, that first deletes the Modules\Server\Config directory, then makes a full copy from \Config to Modules\Server\Config and then starts Orbiter. Thus the Config folders are in sync (assuming you...

    Oh by the way: Is your external drive maybe not an NTFS formatted filesystem? FAT32 for example can not handle junctions / links.

    OHM D3D9 for Orbiter 2016

    Hi, that you can not create the symbolic link on your external drive is strange. To investigate this I would have to re-create the issue here, but I have to find an external drive for this ;) In the meantime here's how you create the symbolic link manually: open a command promt and navigate...
