Quick intro - first played elite 2 days after it was released on the BBC B - I was posh and converted it to run off floppy. Good old days...
Anyhooo... Have been playing oolite on and off for a number of years (just can't help yourself, can you?) and now I've hit a snag.
I have a number of oxps running and I'm wondering if there's one of these that is known to kill the keyboard plist? I've searched through and short of taking each one out and trying, I'm stuck. Ruuning win 7 pro, oolite 1.77 and being an old fart I can't quite get over A S X < > ?
If you want to find conflicts, then open your AddOns folder and search for keyconfig.plist. There should be just one. I see you have keyconfig.plist listed in the screenshot. There might be one in the config folder.

Welcome aboard, darklyte - not sure about your problem, but I don't think you should have both Griff's Replace and Griff's Addition installed.
Very true, didn't spot that.
Replace should be used if you want to replace the original ships. Addition should be used if you want Griff's ships in addition to the original set. You should have one or the other, but not both.
How many times have we seen that problem? I thought the wiki page was clear about that, but maybe not?
Replace should be used if you want to replace the original ships. Addition should be used if you want Griff's ships in addition to the original set. You should have one or the other, but not both.
Though, there's nothing wrong as such with having both. It might even be useful... for instance if you had ships which were not the Griff Shipset installed, but wanted the Griff ships to be added twice to the role list to keep the basic snake ships a bit more common than the others.
I have a "failed oxp" folder in addons and I dragged the other in there.
I have also dumped my imperial courier and am now flying a python class cruiser. Handles well. Hope the maintenance costs are less than the courier as it was one expensive bird...
I've moved the extra griff oxp as it sounds good to have variance.
Just to add. Python flies like a brick when push comes to shove.
Gotta say with those oxps, oolite can only be described as looking "sumptuous".
Yes Oolite can look so much better than vanilla. Have you seen my Recommended OXPs list on the wiki? There's a few other OXPs you can add that'll add a lot to your experience.
One question, I notice you have only one Your Ad Here! OXP folder. Most installations of that OXP have multiple folders. Mine's like this:
Nope - hadn't added them all at the time as I hadn't downloaded the full set. Rural broadband... Grrrrrr
Have managed to grab them now so will put them in there tonight. I'll also check out your list and have a play.
I'm almost tempted to say DB is up against it with his remake if this is what we have to play with now. I don't do MMO's so that isn't an issue - I also have loads to do in my day job
