Hello just learned about this amazing project and downloaded it immediately but when i try to open the Orbiter.exe it loads up for a split second and then closes. the Orbiter_ng.exe has no problem but i dont know where i could find a graphic engine. Please help me fix it because I am very excited to try it!

I managed to solve it so everything is good but i cant find how to remove the post

Welcome to the forums!
Hey don't remove your post, instead tell us what the problem was and how you fixed it. :)

Sometimes it's an obvious fix in hindsight, sometimes it's a setting in the graphics, etc.
Believe me, I've felt like a total idiot on more than one occasion when something would crash my Orbiter, when all I needed to do was click one button.
 
Searching the forums for a problem (and the solution) that someone else had is a great resource. Especially since we have almost 19 years of searchable forum archives now...
