[PROGRAM] YSFlight Mission Utility
Over the past week I've been dusting it off, improving some of the code and giving is a face-lift.
I'm thoroughly pleased to say that as of last night, I have a (hopefully) fully working utility program that allows users extreme control over save file generation.
As of now, I am releasing this program to the YSFlight Community as an open source project currently hosted on SourceForge.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ysflightmissionutility/
I coded it in Java for cross-compatibility and I've tested it on a Mac and a Windows computer. (I don't have Linux anymore).
I realise that Grigor made the first program of this sort which I discovered recently and I would like to emphasise that this program was not based off his original work and I any similarities are coincidental and unintended.
Please read the User guide accompanying the current version of the program as it outlines the installation instructions.
Also, any bugs you find, send me an email at (m.j.virgona[at]gmail.com) with the subject "YSFlightMU BUG", that way I can promptly address your concerns, similarly with any suggestions you have for improving it, send me an email with the subject "YSFlightMU SUGGESTION". I hope to release an update every month depending on whether improvement ideas keep coming in. Alternatively you can post on the forum but I am much more reliably contact via email.
Finally, the program may seem complex at first, the user guide should clear things up.
I hope you enjoy using it as much as I do.

Re: YSFlight Mission Utility
For example, my YS install is located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\YSFHQ\YSFlight". I put the .jar file at "C:\Program Files (x86)\YSFHQ" and then launched it. That got it launched, but I ran into a NullPointerException on line 757.
Looking at line 757:
Code: Select all
//Loading Maps
File mapLoad = new File(path + "/scenery");
String dir2[] = mapLoad.list();
temp_index = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < dir2.length; i++) //line 757
Schwarzwald, do you happen to have a Github account? I think it would be great if you could make a new repository with this inside, so (a) we can view the code easier, (b) it is easier to adopt changes from other developers, and (c) it has a pretty solid issue/bug-tracking tool. Plus I know many employers are impressed when they see applicants contributing to open source projects.
There are some things I want to address later concerning the overall architecture of the software, but right now I'm thrilled that you're contributing this much. I'm sure when we can fix up the small file reading issues it will work great. Thanks!

Re: YSFlight Mission Utility
Please note that this is my first program in Java, and I'm more than willing to accept advice on improving it, I posted it as an OpenSource project precisely because there are many more people out there with far superior programming skills.
As regards to a GitHub account, it is unfortunate that I've never had occasion to utilise its vast array of usefulness.

It's a little rough and finicky, but all in all, impressive work.

Re: [PROGRAM] YSFlight Mission Utility
I've done some testing and ended up having the same problem. It loaded when I put the .jar in the YSFlight directory but would not load aircraft for me. So I have no real idea what's going on with it. Maybe some of our coding guru's could shed some light on it?MobKillerYS wrote:https://gyazo.com/84952be71f647e43f6eb750f5215fcb8
