List of added capabilities in FSWiki
I don't know if all the coders know it, but, because of a WMCoolmon's request, I started a Wiki page which is intended mainly as a log for FSOpen engine updates:


But I've just looked at the editing history of that page and nobody has posted anything since my last update in early August.  :( :(

Maybe there hasn't been any additions to the code but bug fixes, but I think that active coders are not keeping this page updated. Please, although it can be somehow a PITA, keep it updated or this list will be fully useless.

(Maybe this topic should become sticky)
IF YOU HAVE TROUBLES WITH FS2:
  • Please, please, please, READ and UNDERSTAND the sticky threads in FreeSpace & FreeSpace Open Support board.
    A lot of people are willing to help you, but, as anyone can understand, seeing the very same "issues" repeated again and again can become quite depressing. Please, spend a bit of time trying to solve the issue by yourself.
    (Lobo deserves a monument).
  • Then, if you aren't still able to solve your issue, feel free to ask for help in that same board.
    FYI, most of the troubles are caused by wrong mod installations which lead to either missing data or undesired cross-effects between them. Always follow the mod installation instructions and keep a clean FS2 installation as explained in the sticky threads. Two additional links about how the game handles game data:
  • If you think that you've discovered a bug, mantis it.
    Provide as much info as you can, and try to narrow it down. A lonely "FS2 doesn't work" is not a good report.
