ORBITER-FORUM will be temporarily closed at 2026-07-23 18:00 UTC while we complete some OF maintenance tasks. The amount of downtime is expected to take up to one hour, but probably less.
Not to be nit-picky, but rather, to avoid code issues for you in the future, you might check your spelling of "ORIGINAL" here:
sscanf(line + 7, "%d", &ORGINIAL);
It's different than here:
if (!_strnicmp(line, "ORGINAL", 7))
Very interested in this one. It's also gotten me nostalgic for the Batteltech tabletop days, as well as Mechwarrior 2, Mechwarrior 3, and Mechcommander Gold.
Still to this day, when someone ends an answer/statement with "I think," my response is always, "Don't think, Mechwarrior, find out!!!"
Could it have been an authorization/privileges issue with the VS shell related to Windows UAC? When working with VS2015 here at work, I would sometimes have issues on Windows 7 if I didn't run Visual Studio as Administrator, so I just set my shortcut/taskbar icon to always run it as...
I know there was a CameraMFD addon that worked with an older version of Orbiter. I don't know if it's compatible with Orbiter 2016, but you can certainly try it and see:
CameraMFD 0.12 Beta
Sweet. I'll be picking one up shortly to run my LiveATC feed, which currently sits on my older gaming desktop under Windows 10. Need to check if my wireless router supports PoE.
Just bought a Model B back in December to replace the one in my Stratux that died 2 years ago (because I damaged...
I have no intentions of downloading it (actually version 2.1 now) though it is still available, still listed as an early access/alpha release requiring purchase of the NTTR or Normandy map to function.

Included as the last line...
I doubt my 970 could run 2.5 sufficiently.
For some reason I actually thought 2.0 was already released as a full version, and a month or two ago I uninstalled 1.5 with the intention of installing 2.0. So I currently don't have a working install :(
Maybe I'll download both.
I can't for the life of me remember who I got this from, but I was struggling with reentry with the XR2 for a long time until someone passed this info to me. Whoever you are, if you read this let me know and I will give you full credit.
I'm fighting this battle myself right now on my desktop that runs the LiveATC feed for KHNB. Waiting on instructions from Dave at LiveATC for how to configure the feed to run in Fedora, then will be switching that box over.
This was one of the machines I still ran Orbiter on...
This just made my week. Lack of OSound and UMMU support in O2016 has kept me from really getting back into Orbiter.
Thanks to all of you for your work on both of these projects!
Huzzah!!!!
Wait, that was TWO years ago?!? Holy crap. I still remember laughing hysterically as I clicked Submit Reply on that one. Sometimes I'm way too easily amused....
Absolutely hate DST. It's worse since Not-My-Man-Mitch Daniels screwed up Indiana's time zones years ago.
Before he came along, the majority of Indiana was in a time zone called "Indiana (East)." It still exists as a choice in Windows at least up to version 8.1, even though it hasn't...
