Hi People. Smart App Control blocks running Orbiter.exe and Orbiter_ng.exe from anywhere except my root folder. If I copy them and put on taskbar they're blocked. If I make a shortcut and leave it in the root folder it blocks that! Notifying that I think it is safe doesn't make it recognised...

Hi All, Can anyone help here please. I've installed 2024 on a new laptop and can't run with integral D3D9, only D3D7. This gives me all manner of strange visual anomalies with my F-35B addon. Specs below - is there some sort of incompatibility? If run with D3D9 no 3D device is seen and it just...

Hi All, I have two .cpp files. One is for a 2016 Release addon, and another for Open Orbiter (diff. being one uses OrbiterSound 5.0, the other XRSound) I want to automatically copy any changes I make (apart from sound related of course) from one to the other (at least one way). Any help how I...

Hi All, Coming at this late in the day....... Have tried to search answers to these but probably putting wrong key words.... Do addons for Open Orbiter have to be specifically compiled ? If so, I've seen several mentions of VS 2019 in connection with, does it have to be this version? And...

Hi All, Can we draw text in Sketchpad in black ? I've tried searching and all I found was that if "black (0) is specified then SetTextColor is not called so text is printed in last specified color"..... But can we actually print in black ? Any help appreciated.

Hi All, Is there a way to find the highest part of a mesh, and of a building in a .cfg file ? (eg: .y of scale ?) (Tall order eh ! - Excuse the pun) Needed to hone an approach autopilot. Many thanks.

Hi People. Problem: Tiles disappear when zoom in, only happens in D3D9Client. [Orbiter2016 Release rev 62, with D3D9ClientR4.11-forOrbiter2016(r1355)] Also, mismatch appears in D3D9 that isn't there in Stock Orbiter. Looks like lower resolution tiles loading ? Screenshots attached (hopefully in...

Hi There Everyone. Good to be back. Was stuck abroad for 10 months ! I'm perplexed, have searched but can't find a similar case. Code compiles with my usual warnings, but ctd after few seconds unless compiled with debug which runs fine. I know which code is causing it but can't find out why...

Well hello Forum Guys. Being a forum noob at the best of times, I'm totally unaware of the doubtless many advantages of the recent migration. So this is gonna seem a thankless question (but I'm not). All my myriad browser Bookmarks to much needed info are now redundant. ? Is there any way to...

Hi People. Quick question, probably not quick answer..... On a distance calculation I'm getting a value of "-1.#IND" intermittently. It's messing up an autopilot. Is it an overrun of some kind. If so, what do I need to do....? Code used: dis = sin((latitude)*RAD) * sin((tgtlat)*RAD) +...

Has anyone heard from this guy?

Help please. Try as I may I haven't been able to display distances to bases in red if going further away, and in white if getting nearer. Sounds simple and no doubt is, but can't crack it ! Standard display code is: if(HUD2 == 1 && oapiGetHUDMode() == HUD_DOCKING &&oapiCockpitMode() ==...
