Project Costa Rica Space Systems Developments. What do you think i should do?

[Istochnikov]

Hi.

I'll put here all the progress with my projects for Orbiter.

This is the list:

Fobos Grunt remaster.

Luna Glob/Luna Grunt project.

Chandra AXAF, Spektr XG (Yamal bus Version) and other astronomical satellites (Herschel and Planck were in the list, but were dropped from it due there is a marvellous add-on available ).

(Herschel a month before launch, Planck in similar state, the screenshot was taken the April 4th 2009.)

Other projects in early development:

1. Some meteosats
2. More Sci-sats,Mil-sats,Com-sats, Probes
3. VASIMR Lunar Tug (Note for me: ask NickD for info and codes )
4. Kliper Mini-Shuttle (And the Soyuz 3 )
5. Afternoon Train ERS
6. Many more (The list is in an attachment)

I put this info for avoiding development collisions... and for a little of feedback :feedback:

Part Two of the first post:

More developments

Europa Jupiter System Mission.

GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO GPS (I should ask to Scrooge McDuck for collaboration ).

2001 Mars Odyssey (and other Mars Missions )

Yantar class earth surveyance satellites (Kobalt M)

Eurostar 3000 Bus

Spacebus B Blocks (3000B/4000B)

Innovative Interstellar Explorer

Any feedback :feedback:

Whoa! Amazing work!! Looks like you were there for hours before a modeller.

I'd be very happy if you did Chandra, Spitzer and Compton. Along with Hubble they're the four observatories in NASA's Great Observatories program.

Chandra, Hubble and Compton were all launched from the shuttle. Spitzer was launched on a Delta II ELV.

The three are in my plans

Thanks! :speakcool:
I should say I'm not a professional modeller, i'm only a self-taught one

 

[Oceanic]

i think "awesome self-taught professional modeller" is the proper term!

they all look fantastic, can't wait to put Chandra Observatory and James Webb Space Telescope into orbit!

you probably seen this already, if not i hope it will help you. found this beautiful unfolding animation of the James Webb Space Telescope.

I second this, all the models look beautiful!

For your eye-taste

Fobos Grunt: Updated today: Drill added, folded panels

I hope you pardon me for the high count of polygons...

 

[Istochnikov]

Tell me your opinion:

GLONASS Uragan-M Finished

NAVSTAR GPS 2RM Finished

:feedback:

 

[ar81]

<<Drooling>> :speakcool:
2 questions:

1.When will you post them
2.What launcher do you recommend for them?

<<Drooling>> :speakcool:
2 questions:

1.When will you post them
2.What launcher do you recommend for them?

Answers:

1: All add-ons will be released a tuesday. The GPS add-on is a joint project by me and Scrooge McDuck. So the releasing date is not fully dependant in me.

2: Each add-on will hhave the launch scenarios. Now, for the GPS constellation the launchers are: (BrianJ or Velcro?) Delta 2 and (Travmind's or Velcro?)Atlas 5-401 for the NAVSTAR. The GLONASS-M will be launched in trios by Thornton's Proton-LV and solo flights by Mustard's Soyuz and Utpal Parrikal's GSLV MK2; finally the GALILEO GPS satellites will be launched in quartets by Mustard's Soyuz (The GIOVES were launched individually)

More screenshots:

LAPLACE JGO (The ESA contribution for Europa-Jupiter System Mission) Finished

:feedback:

PSD: the only thing i should do now is learning programation in C++. Will somebody be parient enough for teaching me?

 

[ar81]

You may try Orbiter wiki
http://www.orbiterwiki.org/wiki/Main_Page
I would help you, but I have not had a chance to start with C++ yet.
I still have unfinished projects of mine and work projects too.

 

[Istochnikov]

Well... some extra-progress in the development of payloads

CHANDRA AXAF

INTEGRAL GRT

Some Afternoon Train members

AQUA (EOS-PM)

CALYPSO

AURA (EOS-CHEM)

Milstar Mil comsat

XMM Newton

 

[Istochnikov]

Not happy? More developments

The GALILEO GIOVES

GIOVE A

GIOVE B

The precursor of the ion propulsion on comsats: ARTEMIS

Space Probes:

2001 Mars Odyssey

LAPLACE-JGO

Fobos Grunt (Finished model, beginning programation... )

Luna Grunt Project

Any Feedback, please? :feedback:

 

[Istochnikov]

And Even More

Lockheed Martin AS2100AXS (ASTRA 1KR - ASTRA 1L and SIRIUS 4)

EADS ASTRIUM Eurostar E3000 (Arabsat 5A)

Thales-Alenia Spacebus Series

Spacebus 3000 B3 (Intelsat GALAXY 17)

TurkSat 3A

AHHH!!! Did somebody Ask for the VASIMR Lunar Tug ?

And for the airplane fanatics... i don't limit myself to modelling satellites

Again... i wait your feedback :feedback:

 

[PhantomCruiser]

That's, like 20 different ways of awesome dude. Seriously, Tuesday can't get here fast enough...

 

[ar81]

¿Me permitís expresar que estoy boquiabierto, turulato, anonadado con tan magnífico trabajo? ¡¡Está super tuanis!!

 

[wehaveaproblem]

Nothing to add in terms of real feedback, but just wanted to add another kudos for the modelling, great work. Is all the texturing original too? You have some lovely ones in there, could I be nosie and ask for where you aquired them?

Some textures are made by me, but the most important (Golden/Silver/Black foils, some solar panels) are used with permission of BrianJ (the convenient credits are in the manuals of muy add-ons ). I've ask him more than a year ago (little less than 2 weeks before the M6 Orbiter Forum Board collapsed) for the development of my first add-on: Boeing 702 and happily, he agreed

For trying to give more realism, i use to use colors beneath the texture, and also i tried (without success ) the implementation bumping maps (usually based in the main texture).
