Hi everyone
Hi everyone
My name is Gerard, I'm from South Africa. I'm an amateur astronomer, and an armchair pilot and planet hopper.
I first played Orbiter in 2006. At the time I had Windows on my computer and Orbiter was one of the things I booted into Windows for. I still had my Orbiter installation with addons, textures etc., tucked away in a folder but eventually stopped playing as I need to use Windows less and less for work.
I've since been able to migrate completely to Linux and in thinking back to things I loved spending time doing, zipping about the solar system in my Delta was one of them. I'm now actively trying to get it running on Linux.
My setup has improved a lot since then, super large monitor and kickass sound system. Hopefully I get to feel the old familiar roar soon again.
Anyway, thats me. Hi.
