Yep getting my mind around it, finally figured out most controls. Just wondering if you guys could add in current Lat/Long down bottom left corner for reference in a future patch, (actually I found tab brings info up nicely, however once I managed to glitch it and it stopped producing coords, I think perhaps its due to me going into space then back down again?)

I was also looking at the object files and wondering if we'll be able to just drop in our own objects etc sometime to try out new things, i.e. wondering how hard it be to toss in a tank for example. I don't mind coding :)

Additionally if you guys have someone in GIS (I have experience with it from university) then you can use allot of GIS data for imprinting land-types and features into your worldengine; for example tree region types are easily identified with GIS tools such as Esri Arc Tools etc... You can even complete entire accurate road maps with ease, instead of needing manual input.

You can get access to the basic ArcGIS programs and datasets for around ~$3000 (for commercial use). I am sure you guys are already fully aware of all the above, just checking.

Seems to be an issue with USB devices. Could you get the usbdeview utility from here http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html (download link at the end), and run it in command line:

usbdeview.exe /stab usb.txt

and send me the usb.txt file?

Ok, my usb hub is the problem. When I took it off, the messages stopped. I have three usb devices connected to my PC:  a usb printer, a usb rudder pedal and a usb hub. Connected to the usb hub (a four ports model) I have a usb joystick and a 'throttle/spoiler/flaps' usb console.

I'm sending the requested log.

Thanks.

@ GIS

There are many alternatives to ArcGIS ... the most I love is quantum GIS. It works very well with the datasets of openstreetmap and ist regulary updated. I used it partly at work and it was very comfortable.
Also some GIS-Tools could find their way into Outerra. For example a polygon-tool which defines the area of a forest. At least the user has to click and define the type of forrest.
Or a paint-tool where you can draw simply the texture (sand, concrete etc.) to your landscape.

Can't wait to try this! Looking great. Sure hope this can be turned into a flight/train/ship/car simulator sometime.

Awesome! Just bought it and love it to bits already!

I have a G940 logitech joystick/pedals/throttle system and am having trouble getting the collective to respond - especially trying to land it seems to float around ~~

Anyway, I expect this to be a transient issue as this program is expanded so Im not too worried - Im using FreeTrack on the mouse x and y axis to look around in cockpit -

Congrats on the release and I look forward to the path ahead!

It's possible to change the FOV ? It's really too narrow, especially when we are near the ground.

Not yet, will be adding it to the config. For some it's narrow, for others wide :)

Hi! The issue I had is now fixed. I think the update did the job. Now the joystick is not working (actually never did). The usb.txt is attached. Thanks!

So, does it mean that when you go into the input configuration, and you click on a control and move the joystick axis, nothing happens? Is it not being detected?

Nothing happens at all. It's like is doesn't even exists... I'm using it with Flight Simulator so it's 100% sure that the joystick is working...
