Hello Everyone! I know we've been quiet for a LONG while. It's been a combination of personal reasons (mostly good things happening!) and development being stuck in a couple of big engine changes that we needed to make towards OWM 2.0. The big one is behind us, OWM changed its engine model to add th...

Since you've popped up, Kanchou, I'll piggyback on a post you replied to with another "new PC" issue: On my Debian 12/13 laptops, OWM refuses to start with the error OWM: error while loading shared libraries: libtiff.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Debian only includ...

I never thought of that

Don't feel bad, it took us way too long to think of it

We have a new release planned for next month (middle of the month is the most likely, but could slip to late July).

OWM is calculating the mm correctly based on the map's resolution.

Hi all, I recently upgraded my PC and downloaded OWM, but can't find where to put the receipt number to allow me to use it and upload the file I'm working on. I've looked online everywhere and the advice I get doesn't match with what I'm trying to do Thanks I'm not sure what you mean with your ques...

Hello, I'm having the exact same problem as reported in this thread: https://www.otherworldmapper.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=708 I just replaced OWM after a hard drive crash but my old maps won't open now. I'm sorry but I don't remember the previous version of OWM I had installed. I didn't use ...
