An interesting technical issue just seems to have popped up for me.
I could run the game perfectly after installing it initially. However, subsequent attempts at starting the game result in unresponsive game after loading; it shows the menu screen but cursor does not work and I cannot switch focus into the game.
The game must then be shut down with the task manager.
log.lst shows the following at the end:
[16:24:55] java.lang.AbstractMethodError

Will continue testing to further determine the cause of problem.
Herra,
I haven't seen any of that. It is true that I don't have a real TrackIR so I don't know what could be happening, but as far as I know the Message class wasn't modified in 4.11 (I have to confirm this).
Have you copied the DT.dll to the root of your game, haven't you? Because if not something like that could be expected.
Kumpel told me something that is true, that in the previous version I published, there is a setting of the locale for the game that could lead to problems. I used the pure extracted class of 4.11 and in my few 4.11 tests the MOD worked like this, but to make it more universal, now I repost it converted to the "RU" version.
I have introduced a couple of bug corrections that mainly manage the Mouse6DOF in a better way. Now it has been established like these defaults:
PAL3DMouse6DOF=1 (1 or 2, only concer to Mouse6DOF, TrackIR should work always)
PAL3D6DOFAutoReset=1 (Normal 4.11 game behavior, AutoReset point of view on re-entering cockpit)
And now the Modes 1 and 2 are like these (mainly to make them consistent with the zoom (far / near) that the game produces by default when in external view.
Mode 1 (former "Normal Mouse"):
-Normal mouse movement: head rotation
-Left Button mouse movement: Z (zoom in / out)
-Right Button mouse movement: XY (horizontal / vertical)
-Center Button: reset
Mode 2 (former "XY Mouse"):
-Normal mouse movement: XY (horizontal / vertical)
-Left Button mouse movement: Z (zoom in / out)
-Right Button mouse movement: head rotation
-Center Button: reset
