XR5 Passenger flights to the moon are fun!

My brand new SpacePort I have been working on during my free-time. It doesn't work as quite well in Orbiter 2016 because I created it in Orbiter 2010.

Lunar City; I found the mod on an abandoned website. It adds a very nice habitation city dome; I think David Courtney did a video on it with Beautification of Brighton Beach. I think I found it on the abandoned website as a mod pack that adds all sorts of stuff, including changing pad textures...

Exactly. It's sad, but I love going in deep with abandoned things. I go to wayback machine and see all those dead Orbiter IMFD Tutorials, Direct Lunar Reentry video on vimeo that has 13 views but helped a lot, abandoned mod websites and fan websites, etc. Remember William Gilliam? I like his...

I really like Kulch's lunar masss driver, Lunar city, and Fuel Service Station mods. Very very fun. The mass driver doesn't work, unfortunately, in Orbiter 2016.

My favourite thing to do is simulate passenger flights to and from modified Brighton Beach (Lunar City Mod, it's outdated but kinda works). I pretend that the XR5 is a big passenger spaceliner, and simulate standing at Wideawake International (Which is very glitchy in 2016), loading passengers...

Some of them I don't even know how to use, some of them I don't even know what they do. I have a mod called "Tether MFD" that allows tethering of spacecraft, which is pretty cool and still works in 2016, even though it was meant for 2005. There is also random Guidance MFDs also. Clock MFD is...

Wow! Thank you!!

Well, If I recall correctly, IMFD has a nice 3D map with movable camera views only in the left mfd.

One can never have too many mfds on the ship computer ?

So in Michael Jackson's tour "HIStory", he made this great entrance in his spaceship, which looks a bit like the Default PB shuttle in Orbiter. I was wondering if anyone could make a basic vessel similar to the PB, but using the model of Michael Jackson's spaceship. There is a black canopy...

So I messed around with Paint.net yesterday. I can confirm that it does edit transparency layer. What do I do next? Do I just create a new layer, type text in new font, align it over the top of the old text, and somehow remove the old text? I am sorry, my photo-editing skills are a bit low.

Great Work! I always love this mfd, but I am usually too lazy to go all the way to the end of the mfd selection pages and select this. Is there a way to bring it to the front? I think OrbiterSound did this too.

I am just an enthusiastic and brilliant 10th grader. I plan on getting into engineering or computer related field one day. My goal is Aerospace, but in India, there are the JEE exams, and IIT. :(

What is the alpha channel? Is it the background layer? I can't edit any of the text, so do I have to create a new layer and retype all the text, then position it on top of the old text, then merge the layers?

Thank you! I was wondering the same thing about the upper text (time warp, mjd, fov, etc.) and I noticed that it was different for me and had the legacy yellow text in textures, but the white text in sim. I did go through the cockpit textures folder. Will I be able to edit it using Paint.net?

Thank you so much! I am planning on replacing the textures with Futura font, and since I mainly only use 2d cockpit, will I be fine just replacing the font1tex.dds? Also, how would I get the same size font and spacing? What did you use? Edit: I tried editing that file, but it doesn't seem to...

Oh, okay. Thanks! Do you know what font is specifically used in Orbiter MFDs?

Hi Everyone. I noticed that in @dgatsoulis 's videos, he had a custom font for the hud and mfds. Is there a way to set it like that? Here is the video for reference. Thanks, Krishnan

Hello Everyone! How did you discover and start playing Orbiter Space Flight Simulator? My story goes like this. I was watching a youtube video where the Youtuber Swiss001 builds his own aircraft and tries flying them. Instead of doing my work, I procrastinated and decided to give the game a...
