In your case the fallout was much higher, though - I give you all the credit for coming forward with the solution, taking the blame and trying to wash X-Aviations name clean of your accusations, but ultimately a thread was created that tarnished a publishers name (with possibly real hard-currency damages in lost sales ensuing) - because few people tend to read these things to the very end. We see people crippling their X-Plane installation with invasive mods all the time. So I can only reiterate my advice: Keep your system as lean as possible. Effects that even their creators may not be aware off. Most of these mods come with no guarantee to not only do what they promise to do, but also cause harmful effects beyond that. and this includes weighing options and risks when wildly installing stuff. What folks need to be aware of is that ultimately they are responsible for keeping their system operational. There has been a lot of turmoil over the introduction of Vulkan when those folks had ot bite the bullet and clean out their messie installation. Some are 'collectors' that can´t resist installing pretty much every mod or plugin they can find. Yes, I understand - it is a common 'trait' among flightsimulation hobbiests. I actually dislike it, never use it, but literately forgot it's in my suite of scripts. What is the advantage to the end user of Gizmo over a simple licence key? The DRM is completely separate from the scripting side. As far as DRM, it is used during activation and then lies dormant in the plugins folder. Depending on how it is used with regards to coding systems, it's very efficient and not dissimilar from other scripting or coding languages (like C/C++). SASL also has DRM.Īs far as it taking performance away from the PC, it doesn't. Think of it as an alternative to SASL (used by the org). You have, in essence, removed the power source for the entire add on, and you'll find many, if not all systems will not work.Īpart from the TBM and CRJ, all other add ons use Gizmo for their scripting. But doing that will also render the add on useless. Removing it will remove activation from the add on. (Yeah, another DRM rabbit hole, that, personally, I don't want to get into because opinions on DRM are very polarized.)Īll X-Aviation add ons use Gizmo for their DRM. Gizmo is X-Aviation's in house DRM and scripting language. And yes, I still want to know what Gizmo is and how to get the Islander and CRJ work without it.
