- does the problem occur with any aircraft, at any airport?
- where did you download your aircraft/scenery from?
- is there any output printed to the console (black window)?
- copy&paste your commandline (tick the "Show commandline box on the last page of FGRun or the "Others" section on the Mac launcher).

QTLauncher breaks Flightgear on startup

Postby adam_one » Sun Jan 08, 2017 4:17 am

Hi,

Im can work around this i.e selecting aircraft with command, change airport in-game, but I thought I would post since I notice differences in the output when running with/without Qt.

No QT (everything works)

I notice I get a "libpng"-warning early in the second command, and the "options" section does not state if Terrasync is enabled or disabled, but maybe that is standard?

I thought I would just share small compromises, Im in no real distress.

Manjaro Linux, FG4.4, I KNOW! I have a weak GPU, but everything works without Qt.

Could you elaborate on 'aircraft don't look normal'? Maybe that can give a clue (the libpng warning is probably harmless, I've seen tons of these without ever noticing anything odd... ).

One crucial question - you're trying to start /the same/ session, i.e. same location, same aircraft (okay, I can see that), same parameters,...?

I actually wanted to post in the official bugtracker, I'll start over there.

This thread may be deleted. :)

Thank you, have a good day.

Did you file a bug on this? I don't see it. Also there is one strange thing in your output:
'qt5ct: using qt5ct plugin'
That's not something I have seen before, are you using a customised version of Qt, or some other unusual setup?
