Hi everyone. Finally had some time to attack getting orbiter running on my new computer, but I'm running into a roadblock. Using the D3D9 client, I can run an example scenario, but it crashes to desktop when I load one of my scenarios. The same scenario loads fine on the normal 2016 orbiter...

I just realized why you typed your response... I'm sorry. I'm running 16828 not 10828. Thank you for responding though!

I have...see above Installed the latest orbiter build and the latest d3d build. I am running orbiter_ng.exe. Orbiter_ng runs normally, but at the end it says graphic client not installed. Completely at a loss... Has anyone gotten the latest build to work?

Hi guys, returning to orbiter after a long time away :) Trying to get d3d client to work, but I get this message when I launch out of orbiter_ng.exe: Running in server mode (no graphics client attached). There are no errors nor CTD...just that message at the end of all the .dlls loading. I...

SpaceX I thought that the ability to do pad hold downs were a heavily advertized feature of SpaceX rockets. I remember Elon Musk comparing pad hold downs to the engine run-ups that aircraft do before taking off. I doubt they will ever change. Also, regarding the loss of engines, their...

yeah, but... I understand that we've seen a lot of promises before, but... Spacex has not disappointed. Of all their near term goals, I can only think of two that they haven't met. 1. Reusable Falcon 1 and Falcon 9 first stages. 2. Building the Falcon 5. Both were good business...

SpaceX still didn't deserve your scorn SpaceX has done much to earn at least a little bit of goodwill..even before this latest launch. Let's take a look at their goals and accomplishments. 1. Create brand new rocket company from scratch...done 2. Be 1st private rocket company to launch...

I love how everyone was so negative before launch and so complimentary after launch. (I'm looking at you CODZ). I was so excited about the launch...that at my first chance I logged onto O-F for the first time in years. I couldn't believe all the negativity and outright scorn thrown at SpaceX...

coming back Hey guys, I've been away from orbiter for awhile, but looking to get back into it. The DGex was my favorite craft when I played. What is new about this release? I downloaded the file off orbithangar, but the readme didn't seem different. Thanks in advance!

I thought I had Intel's processor naming convention down, but now I have this problem. My wife's T6600 processor is out-benchmarking (just processor stuff) my T8300. Both are 45nm Peryn chips and here are the specs T6600: 2.2 GHz, 800 Mhz FSB, 2Mb L2 cache T8300: 2.4 GHz, 800 Mhz FSB, 3Mb...

Really? That movie's plot was horrendous. 1. Why was a manned crew even sent? I didn't see anything that couldn't have been done by a robot. 2. On that note, how could there not be an error check for a manuever that could potentially vaporize the spacecraft? At least two people on the...

I stand corrected. I thought the US was a day later, but you are right.

I'll agree, the 1918 treaty's heavy handed approach was pig headed, and I can see how it would cause another war. I never said we protected the FRG for altruistic reasons. Countries don't have friends...only interests. That is a very good question. What would have Bush senior done? Reagan...

Likewise, I will address your points in order This was really written as a joke. Though the constant pressure of ethnic germanic tribes didn't help. What! The 1883 Treaty of Versailles was forced on the French by the victorious Prussian Empire, and the burden was carried by the French, not...

How can anyone from Republika Srpska criticize anyone else, considering that their province started a brutal war and was responsible for some of the greatest human right violations this half-century? And as for the "imperialistic US" imposing its will...? The EU recognized the independence of...
