Hello, I used orbiter many years ago. I now have a LENOVO THINKCENTRE all in one Pc and I am having Major video problems. The only setting that barely works is the RGB EMULATER. Has anyone figured out how to make it work on this PC? I played Orbiter years ago and posted some mods. Mainly ships for Babylon5. I would love to play it again. Anyone out there has an answer. Video does not seem to work with an UHD Graphics card with 128MB, 32 GB RAM, I5 -12453H, 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor, Windows 11. Pleas and thank you.
 
I do not have any experience with Orbiter running on Windows 11, but it should work in general.
For Orbiter D3D9Client to work (Orbiter_ng.exe) it is essential that you've installed the DirectX 9 runtimes. Having any other Direct X capabilities does not help, Direct X 11, 12 do not include that.
So please make sure you've insalled DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010).
That might not be enough, but that's essential.

With your helpful suggestion Orbiter is up and running! TYVM. Are there any more tricks IN2K?
