Software Orbiter doesn't work ...

[Cool Hip Dude]

Orbiter doesn't work at all on my pc.

Every time I try to start Orbiter, I get a Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library error.

It insists on using Intel HD 4000 graphics which we all know is crap. It does not recognise the nVidia GeForce GT-650M dedicated graphics in my laptop.

Did you enable local light sources, and if so have you tried with them being disabled?

Have you tried disabling the Intel card either in BIOS or in system?

Dumb question, but do you have the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtimes?

Re. the graphics card, try ticking "always enumerate devices" in the menu, then restarting the program.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place.

Has SC3 stopped working for anyone else ? Focus on any SC3 vessel with a robotic animations in it, and press spacebar. The status of the arm joints should show in the bottom left. You should also be able to move that joint by pressing leftshift + 2/8. I have two windows7 computers that were updated yesterday and both are having the same problem, one a little more so. Anyone else experience this ?
