Hi everyone! I've been around for a while but only recently got back into Orbiter properly again. Anyway, I've slowly been building up an Orbiter installation including various addons, texture replacements etc. I installed the DG-IV-3 to play around with it and came accross a problem. When I...

I have a feeling that you had this. It's the one I have and seems to work on 2010P1. I hope this helps.

Fish So there was this little fish and it went nom nom nom on a plant. Then, a bigger fish went nom nom nom on little fish. Then, a large fish went nom nom nom. And there was this bigger fish and it went nom nom nom, and there was this huge fish and it went nom nom nom! The they all blew up...

Gene Kranz, due to his efforts and hard work in all the missions. One of the less glorious heroes of Space, but without him, Lovell, Haise and Swigart (is the spelling right?) wouldn't have made it back.

Hi Bruhaha. I've PM'd (is that the right term?) you with information and details. I hope they are OK. My demo making skills are, I'm afraid, practically nonexistant at the moment, I'm still learning Orbiter myself. If anyone else out there can help, please let Bruhaha know. It doesn't have to be...

The launcher is here: http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=1957 A quick manual search brought it up, but the url above is right. :hailprobe:

Just one thought - the tanks do exist separately - when jettisoned from the main spacecraft. It would probably be possible to launch these, and attatch them together using a little scenario editor magic. Some may even be docked - it sounds like it in the vid. To launch and assemble 'properly'...

I agree - he probably did use the scenario editor. I have read the book this comes from (I assume I'm not the only person) and the launch sequence goes something like this: 1 The main tank (MSII) is flown up empty on a saturn VB (the one seen in the video) 2-3 The external tanks are flown up...

Looks great! I'm having a little play with this, using markers (shuttle PBs) in a scenario just behind the 'inspositions'. It really helps! I think the words you want may be intake and output, though I'm not sure if an XR5 can be an output yet. Keep up the good work! Trainguy

Dambuster - re the 'system tool', I got it and found it in a hidden folder in the program data folder (I have vista) When it opened, a shortcut appeared to it on the start menu. Right click on it and select open file location. Then select it, right click and somewhere under properties will be a...

Is that what the bar is? I hadn't realised. Re the MFD - I think the ability to transfer LOX as well as fuel would be good, as these are both used in the vessals talked about (DGIV, XR etc) A decision will have to be made soon as to how much fuel the cargo carries - on the one hand, fuelling...

That's a shame. I'm sure we'll do our best to keep this running. Could you add the mesh as an attatchment so others (not me, I'm still learning, but have enough experience to test and play with it in orbiter) can polish it, texture it etc. Good luck moving house!

Looks great vchamp! A few things. Firstly, I think it would be good to have that dialog as generic, as I can't see anything manufacture specific. Secondly, the UCGO fuel truck can already add fuel to any vessal. Perhaps take a look at this and modify it, to combine this and the ability to...

Thanks for this, it is much clearer. The only thing that springs to mind is - will the tugs have to be built as well, along the DG-XR2-XR5 progression or will they all be available from the start. Neptune doesn't seem so far away now, so long as there are no time constraints. Also, it would be...

Grover: OK, I didn't realise you were just making meshes. Look great by the way! vchamp: when you read my previous post, could you just let us (Grover and myself, by PM if necessary) how the workings will work. It's just nice to ensure we are all talking about the same thing.
