This source code started out life as a port of openBVE to the OpenTK framework, but now has begun major development work to improve the sim and the possibilities it presents.
A general overview of compatibility changes, including to the OpenBveApi, and animated objects are described fully here.
These are described fully here.
Automatically generated daily builds are available here.
Documentation for development of add-ons (update version of docs originally written by michelle) can be found here.
openBVE now supports the installation of 'package files' , which are intended as a replacement for the now defunct managed content. These are described fully here.
This build has been tested to compile correctly using VS2013 and MonoDevelop, but should also compile with SharpDevelop.
Joystick hat support does not function correctly in the current release build of OpenTK (1.1.4). Please compile OpenTK yourself from the most recent source if you wish to use this feature.
Please see the Contributors File for a list of contributors, and basic guidelines for contributing to the development of openBVE.
