New orbiter version what about orbitersound and DGII ?

[DanSteph]

I planned to add a special page as stated earlier with
more paintjob for the new DGII. So your work would
be  welcome.

Anyway if you want to start to work already
try to use the new Deltaglider provided while the paint scheme
may differ from the previous DG version.

The next DGII version will use the new model from frying tiger.

simple... sometime I'm not able to work on it for several days
and suddenly in one night I can make some big work.

I guess now would be a good time to get that "silence of space" thing working

Hey Dan, I seem to be the only person who is having troubles with OrbiterSound and the latest
version.

I am getting no sound at all and I cant figure out why. Im getting this message when I try to open
the sound config:

The SOUNDCONFIG.EXE file is linked to missing export DSOUND.DLL:11.

Followed immediately by this:

C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\Orbiter\SoundConfig.exe
A device attached to the system is not functioning.

I hope you can help me out here. I miss my sound big time. Its just not the same without it.

hello Flyboy,

This one is simple:

extract from the OrbiterSound's doc:
If you got a message about dsound.dll you have
a bad or no install of dx8, reinstall it.

So install/reinstall at least DX8 or DX9 (dx8 is included in DX9)

See microsoft's site to download DX8/9 or take a game CD
directx is always available on them.

Thanks Dan, that has got to be it.

I had to do a total format of my hard drive and have yet to download DirectX again. I think I may
have a game thats new enough that has at least DX8.

Once again, the failure to read the documentation has left me blinded. Gotta start reading those .

Thanks again!

[DanSteph]

I should not say that but I rarely read any doc too
APPART when I run in trouble or need info

Hi Dan
first i bought every space sim there is and nothing compares to Orbitor in my opinion.
your sound addon is really the best addon there is,imaging orbiter with no sound,and your delta 11
is out of this world..Just want to say thanks to you for your wonderful addons

[DanSteph]

Well, the Delta number "11" will be out in 2030 I think
the "II" of DeltaGliderII stand for "2"

Thanks for kind word

Dan
