Hey,
Quick question on Rocksim9 licensing. I'm the stupidhead that runs it in a native Linux system using WINE. Since I've just about completely switched to all electronic deployments I wasn't
running it as often as I did in the past. It was fine for easy and quick estimates for "not too Mach-ish" altitudes to make sure I stay within a waiver. Ran the heck out if it when I was busy
drilling delays for motor ejection only to avoid zippers.
Now, I have the Jolly Logic chute release and you-know-who is going to be going back to drilling delay grains again. I fired up RS9 on a linux laptop to dink with a RW Formula 54 with some
29mm motors and it tells me a new version is available. So's I download it and lo' and beholden there's a new licensing format so my prior .ilr file is no longer recognized. In fact the format
doesn't even have that option anymore. I have an email into Apogee and I'm sure they'll work something out so I can manually get it running. The online options weren't accessible from
my linux box.
Anyone else update from the .ilr version to the newer version? Push comes to shove I might have to activate it from a WinBlows machine upstairs but I don't like to have to compete with
the kids.
Whooooeeeee!!! Been a long time since I've checked the price. Some years ago, I tried to purchase a second license for another computer 'cause I felt guilty running the heck out of it.
I was the only one using it period and Apogee told me not necessary. Now I see why some folks are looking at the open source stuff for sims. Kinda hard for a kid to afford and I can see why
folks would consider RAS Aero for its ability to do higher Mach stuff more accurately. Kurt
