Thanks so much, I'm downloading burn calc 2 atm and will let you know the results. The reason why my Ej was so far in the future was because I was under the impression that the best practice to setup trans X plans is to first find a date where the target Planet is closest then work from that...

Maybe the problem is differen't versions of TransX cos when I loaded your scenario I also didn't get your TransX plan. The version I'm using is TrasX-3.13.1.3. Last Night I got to a point where I had copied a reasonable TransX plan into a manoeuvre ( in manoeuvre mode ) and was ready to start...

Thanks dgatsoulis for your help. I have changed my Ej Orientation to 57 as you suggested ( this matched my current Inc which is 57.25 ) but my Rel Inc is now 117.5 deg. Massive . If I change my Ej Orientation I found that with experimenting I could get it down to Rel Inc 21.24 at Ej Orientation...

Thank you so much, just the kind of reply I was looking for. I will give this a try asap and let you know of the results.

I'm fine with it being stupid but I obviously didn't know that, being a little new to the sim, I don't need to prove myself right or you wrong. I just thought you put it a little bluntly considering I was just looking for some help. But anyway, lets not get off topic, I'm still confused :-)

OK fine, no plane alinement's needed, great! But I could still use some help. So I have a good TransX plan for Venus, I have set my Periphrasis distance but I still am unsure of how to use the Ej Orientation variable. I kind of understand the process used in the fly tandem Mars to Venus tutorial...

Hi there I'm trying out the World of 2001 scn of station V to Venus. I'm finding that the station is a bad place to launch from as its orbital inc is 57.25inc 233.53Lan and Venus is 9.58inc Lan 349.97. Now plane changes are very fuel costly as I have discovered but I'd rather not use the...

Found the problem, It was not working when I was forcing anti aliasing settings from my ATI control panel, if I leave them to application settings its fine, though It would be nice to have a high AA setting.

I am also having this problem, No hud, No fuel info. I am however using ati Radeon 4870 ---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:10 PM ---------- Found the solution, atleast with ATI. Disable any kind of Anti aliasing you have on your hard and let the application...

Ah, thank you Wally for your reply. I do then have one more question. The reason I was using the beta 2009 orbiter was because the Hud is no longer working for me in the 2006 version. Any ideas about that ? I should also mention I am running windows 7

Hi there, bit of an orbiter N000b here but I came back to it recently to play around with the 2001 mods. Anyway I'm using the current 100503beta but with most ( not all ) of the addons I Install, the new ships are invisible. I have tried all different gfx settings and I don't know what is...

Thanks mate, you've hit the nail on the head. I also completed the free return and had exactley the same experiance, great vid but i had no clue what i was doing, i was just entering in arbitary figures into an unknown system. It looks like im not alone in my n00bness of IMFD, is there something...

Wow, i'm sensing some hate here Belisarius! I voted Liberal Democrats 1st choice, Borris and conservatives second.

thats kinda what i meant, but either way, using the target intercept you set earth as the source, if you look further up in this topic you can see step by step what i did, maybe you can see where im screwing up

yup, its the starting ( source ) point for target intercept program and should be set to earth
