Darnit, I'm just getting crashes.
Outerra loads up like it should, shows the scenery for one second and then crashes.
TrackiIR4, Trackir5 software running. dll in plugins directory.

Can you give me any instructions on installing, if i should run other software and so on besides copying the dll?

It's been tested with an earlier version of OT and an earlier version of the plugin (the older plugin version is here, you may want to test it with that). I don't see where it's crashing - seems when calling the plugin.

Does the SDK need to be updated? Were there any ABI changes? Where can the SDK be found?

There is no SDK yet.

Hmm, there might have been a change in the ABI, that wasn't included in the version hash check (the API gen is not yet final), so the plugin may need recompiling.
Here's the plugin API: http://outerraworld.com/appdata/Anteworld/ot-api.zip

Can that be used to customize Outerra?

It's an alpha SDK for IGC (image generator control, for using OT as a visualizer with a different simulator) and tracker plugins.

Can someone verify it doesn't crash? Even without a FailIR, for now.

edit:

in init(), there's a dubious block, paraphrasing C syntax:

Code: [Select]
if _failed: return _failed
Is this as expected?

Returning immediately if init failed once?

cameni, can you test the new plugin and see if the damn thing crashes?

I don't have non-VM windows installed :(

It doesn't crash, but the old version didn't crash me either.

Yeah that condition should be
Code: [Select]
if _failed: return false
