[Flightgear-devel] Problems with current Win64 nightly

[Renk T. <tho...@jy...>]

I've just tried to upgrade my Win installation to the current GIT, using a fresh FGdata pull and the matching nightly. Seems there's a couple of issues making it problematic:

* I get a complaint that crashsender.exe can't be found - is this part of the installation?

* half of the time FG simply crashes upon startup, the other half it runs fine - I need to locate the log files before I'm able to say just why this happens, but it's exceedingly weird

* the tooltip 'mouse is now controlling flight controls' never goes away, it just remains glued to the screen till it gets replaced by another message - since it only seems to happen for this particular tooltip, I can work around by pause/unpause and the message of pause replaces flight controls and then disappears properly. But this isn't a long-term solution... Repeating a request that has been made before - I would like to see none of these tooltips - can we have an option to deactivate all of them?

I'm getting none of these issues under Linux with current GIT, so they seem to be Win(64?) specific.


Puzzled,
