Title: Freespace Open 3.6.14 Final
Post by: mjn.mixael on October 23, 2012, 04:46:04 pm: Freespace 2 Open 3.6.14 Final has been released. (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=82648.0) After far too long, we now have a 3.6.14 release that shouldn't launch Skynet, lead to the singularity, or crash a lot. Grab yours today!

Any chance free look will eventually work again? There's a Mantis ticket for it:

I dont have TrackIR, so free look is the only way for me to look around the cockpit =D

thanks alot!

I've read on IRC freelook's got fixed, not sure it's in trunk yet.

There's a patch on the Mantis ticket (http://scp.indiegames.us/mantis/view.php?id=2713) that's still in code review stage, but freelook is fully functional with it.

[Edit]Oh, diegocmr found it already

Post by: diegocmr on October 28, 2012, 02:49:09 pm: sorry for the noob question, but how do I apply the Mantis patch?

Thks!

Post by: Mongoose on October 28, 2012, 03:25:47 pm: If you're not already set up with the FS2 codebase, it'd be quite a bit of work: you'd have to install TortoiseSVN and grab a copy of the source code, implement the patch file (I'm not 100% sure how that part works myself), get some sort of development environment like MS Visual C++ or the equivalent, and then build the patched code on your own machine. It'd be far easier to just wait for the patch to be added to the main codebase, and then download one of the nightly builds afterwards.

Post by: diegocmr on October 28, 2012, 04:29:54 pm: Thks Mongoose! I'll wait for them to release an updated EXE.
I guess i'll have to wait until the patch gets out of code review, though.
