    Meshing Question VC Panel development

    There are a few parts to the VC questions from a legal and ethical standpoint: The XR1's mesh and VC is licensed under GPLV3, as that is a derived work from the now-MIT-licensed original DeltaGlider mesh and VC. This means that if a ship mesh or VC mesh is derived from XR1's mesh, and not just...

    Question I crashed my Linux partition, cause I am stupid!

    I would suggest regular backups of all your partitions -- in addition to software or human error potentially causing data loss, all hardware fails eventually, and so it's not a matter of "if" a backup will be needed someday, it's "when". :)

    Flight Question Looking for an AoA Autopilot for the stock DG

    BTW you can set the XR autopilots via shortcut keys -- details are in the flight manual, or press SHIFT-SPACE to see the shortcuts on the HUD. :)

    Gaming Kerbal Space Program 2 (currently in Early Access)

    Remember this is an Early-Access release, not the final release, and every player has to decide for themselves it they want to buy and play the early-access versions now or wait until it's closer to version 1.0. The known issues section under "Flight and Maneuvering" in the official pre-release...

    My orbiter crashes even if I made sure all mods are compatible with it

    Yes, just because a mod is listed as compatible with Orbiter 2016 does not guarantee that it can never crash due to bugs in it. You could try a standard troubleshooting approach: Install a clean copy of Orbiter 2016 and test with the default DeltaGlider. Install one add-on and retest. Be sure...

    Flight Question xr2 & xr5 MIR docking

    Only a new user account's first post requires staff review (this is an anti-spambot measure). Once a staff member reviews that first post, the staff member marks the post as "approved", which then makes that post visible to everyone else on the forum. At that point, the new user account is fully...

    Problem Orbiter 2016 not responding to Keyboard Commands & Limited Response to Control Panel Switches

    Welcome to Orbiter-Forum! :welcome: Orbiter 2016 is running fine for me on Windows 11 without any compatibility mode set. Are you in a 100% clean Orbiter 2016 installation for your testing? I would start with that, and then gradually install add-ons one-at-a-time, retesting after each one is...

    Problem O2010 showing whites screen and not loading

    Do you have more than one monitor? As a first test, I would go into the Orbiter launchpad's video settings and switch the 3D device to "Direct3D T&L HAL" and then clicking Window mode to run Orbiter in a window. That will render Orbiter on your main monitor. If that works, you can try...

    Linux playground

    Yes, that's correct. Whatever someone builds in private for only their own use is fine, as I understand the license. They (except for the author who has full rights) just can't distribute the build to others.

    Linux playground

    Yes, more information about the XR2's GPLV3 licensing here.

    XR Vessels Open-Source Development

    Yes, I understand that the original author's rights for any code they own and choose to license as GPLV3 are never diminished in any case -- for example, code that is GPLV3 for the public could also be licensed in other ways to other parties, which is entirely up to the author. However, I do not...

    Linux playground

    That is correct, although to clarify further, any assets or additional code, libraries, or binaries that a project uses or requires in order to run must also be GLPV3-compatible, which in practical terms means at least as permissive as the GPLV3 itself. The specifics of the XR2's mesh and...

    XR Vessels Open-Source Development

    Yes, unfortunately. :confused: Despite repeated attempts, I could not reach Coolhand to obtain permission to release his XR2 mesh and textures as GPLV3, and so Coolhand's original license remains in effect for those assets. As it is explicitly against GPLV3 to build or distribute GPLV3-derived...

    Resolved Can't access addons?

    I'd suggest just accessing it using another browser, such as Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Vivaldi, since you said Chrome works for you. It must either be a plugin in or some other unusual behavior in the Brave browser that is causing that. i.e., it could be that some recent Brave update is causing it.
