YSFlight Headquarters

There seems to be a bug in ysflight for linux in versions 20150425 and 20120701, when it comes to addons. Specifically, if there is a .dnm file that in turn has a reference (or more than one) to an external .srf file, if the filepath to this file is not all in capitals, then ysflght will fail to loa...

I will.. try. I am not well versed with programming, and right now I don't have much time available. Actually I am helping decaf_42 in doing exactly that, developing a script of some kind for finding, fixing, suggesting what to do, etc... . He seems to be a much more proficient programmer and alread...

Golden advice on page 24 of the handbook concerning user created addons:

Use only lowercase characters in folders and filenames for new add-ons

Yet, all addons I have seen so far, do not follow this rule.

Ok. More ivestigation with the F-35 v2 pack, shows that most of the .dat files (if not all) have a wrong reference in the dat file for the needing .dnm file. Here is the list and how it was generated :~/Ysflight/ysflight/user/decaff_42$ grep -R -n User * F35/F-35B/F-35B_1_Gruppo_Marina_RCS.dat:126:W...

ERROR
Load Error (VISUAL): ./user/decaff_42/F35/F-35A/F-35A_421_SQ_Mixed.dnm

I understand what you mean. Well personally, I have gone the easy way to rename every single folder and filename under /path/where/ysflight/is/installed and turn them to be lowercase. $ pwd ; ls /home/ats/games ysflight $ $ find ysflight -depth -exec rename 's/(.*)\/([^\/]*)/$1\/\L$2/' {} \; And the...

Regarding the 64bit vs 32bit version of YSFLIGHT under linux, it seems the 20181124 installer has a check mechanism to determine the type of system it is being run upon. And depending what os type it is, it will extract/install the appropriate executables. This is what exists in the installer file: ...

Hello, Personally I use Linux, in home and work. at 90% of the time I do not have access to a Windows machine, and this post has been made from my own perspective in the matter. I have noticed that while the various addons in existence are mostly installable under Windows with little effort, that ca...
