ORBITER-FORUM will be temporarily closed at 2026-07-23 18:00 UTC while we complete some OF maintenance tasks. The amount of downtime is expected to take up to one hour, but probably less.
I am currently running Orbiter 2016 with the latest D3D9 client on a Linux Mint machine through Wine. I know that for some of the add-ons I use, I need to create symbolic links in order for them to function properly. Unfortunately, ever time I click on the "Create Symbolic Links" button, I get...
I'm having a problem attaching the TransHab module to to starship. I use the included spacecraft manager, which includes the option to attach and detach payloads along with setting the launch autopilot, etc. However, the module sticks out of the side of the spacecraft, and changing the...
While recently browsing, I have noticed that the "heart" reaction seems to have been disabled on the forums. I also remember that up until about a year ago or so, the "laugh" or "smile" reaction was available and seemingly removed without notice as well. I was wondering what the rationale was...
Quite a while back, I encountered a post by Tex, who created a "start scenario" over 10 years ago, with a Solar System populated by many spacecraft. Since I haven't been able to find this scenario, since I forgot the key words in its title and the search engine on here is no Google, along with...
I am planning a mission to Neptune using a high-velocity trajectory. I first planned out the trajectory using the Course program, and then switched over to using Delta V and Map. However, the projected Plan trajectory stops just outside of Jupiter's orbit. Is there a way in the configuration to...
I'm trying to flatten a base I have on Mercury, Myron Base to be more specific. The immediate base area was flattened, however, I am having an issue specifying at which elevation I should flatten. Below is an image of my current situation and my flattening code.

I'm having a bit of a problem with a surface base I'm using on Mercury. It is appearing under the surface. I am using Myron Base by jplaja and the high-resoulution Mercury terrain from the official Orbiter website.
Here is the beginning of the code from the config file for the base. I...
I remember there being an addon for a landing area on one of the aforementioned bodies, though I think it was for Ganymede specifically but am not 100% sure. It was for Orbiter 2010 and consisted of a mesh surrounding a flat area. Does anybody remember what it was? Thx :thumbup:
Tried to install the Hi-Res Titan Textures from the main site and this is what showed up.
It's all installed in the textures directory Orbiter/Textures/Titan/Archive and deleted the rest of the Titan stuff. Running with the latest D3D9. Any ideas?
Just wondering if there are any additional payloads out there for the Shuttle-A, more specifically additional fuel tanks in place of the default cargos. I know that the Shuttle-A already has its own "pre-built" set of tanks in the front but was wondering if there was a possibility to add more...
Hall Base on Phobos was one of my favorite destinations in the Solar System, but unfortunately it does not work anymore for Orbiter 2016 due to the surface being defined as the actual mesh. Would it be possible, through the config settings or something, to restore the "invisible sphere" surface...
Hi there,
I know that there are a few meshes out for Olympus Mons, but none of them color-match the L11 surface textures for Mars. Is someone already working on this? It would definitely make the Olympus Base look a lot better.
Thanks again,
Pioneer
I was watching an orbiter video on YouTube where an orbinaut launched his XR-5 from Olympus base and a question came to my mind. Is it possible with the amount of oxygen and atmospheric density on Mars to do a realistic SCRAM ascent?
Hi there,
I'm looking if someone would make or has already made a landing site for Saturn's moon Enceladus similar to the one for Europa included with UCGO.
Thanks Again,
Pioneer

Does anyone know where I can get this texture?
Hi there,
I would like to request an adapter from the ESA/Russian docking system to the CBM docks like the ones found on Neesys: Module Neesys v1.3
Since I don't know modeling and coding it would be nice if someone could create such an adapter it would help me and other fellow orbinauts out...
