added new admin gui for selecting a parent file:


content pack wise updates:
uploaded all missing bits and pieces that were not online yet (thanks to lenni).

The 0.37 content pack can now be found there: http://www.rigsofrods.com/repository...Contentpack037
(gabesters cars are missing though :-/)

some little recap after the 0.38 release 10 days ago:

• we got 23.543 downloads of 0.38.33 so far (link)
• seems we got no really bad bugs, just the usual isolated problems that are specific to certain hardware, computers or people

so all in all I'm very happy that this went so smooth this time

looking forward to fix more bugs and add more features.

PS: someone finally discovered my easter egg

forum-wise: we even got a random thank you post, uncommon but shows that are nice people out there

also, we have a new italian sub-board: http://www.rigsofrods.com/forums/191-Italiano

i need a good looking loading screen image with some nice picture in high res (1280x1024 or such) and with the RoR font (alba) and logo in the bottom left and "loading" text in the bottom right

UPDATE: attached how it looks like atm. seems we also need two versions of the image: one for 4:3 and one for widescreen?

actually, its very simple, click on the text box (with "Search ..." in it) at the top or press "/" key on your keyboard to start searching.

In the normal mode it searches:

• vehicle name
• filenames
• descriptions
• authors (names and email addresses)

But there is also an advanced mode
its syntax is like google search "<type>:keyword"

for example to search mods by dega you could use: author:dega
also works right now for searching hash and guids: guid:fa13...
or for the filename only: file:foo.zip
or for a specific wheel configuration: wheels:6x4

fixed up some content management things for 0.38. Now the selectorgui is working well again, and shows more details about the selected mod. The preview image will also scale whilst keeping its aspect ratio

also, sections working well again

UPDATE: categories working again as well.

I redid the hubs and improved the texture. I'm probably going to add BF Goodrich A/T on the tire wall but idk
The pic is not rendered, what you see is what it will look like in RoR

so, im really pleased how well this works. So far i added the following tabs:

the Ogre log:


IRC Debug tab (hidden later on):


Interactive Angeslscript Console (very well working):


two open IRC channels:

just finished integrating libircclient (https://sourceforge.net/projects/libircclient/) into RoR

this should replace our own hacky chat system - why not reuse IRC, as its there and usable since years?

the GUI is highly WIP, will be looking nice in the end.
