Long live Orbiter ! Here's to another decade of virtual space flights ! 🍺

I couldn't wait lol, imported my custom mission from SSV 1.9 Orbiter 2016 and worked instantly in Orbiter 2024, perfect, I know what I'm gonna do tonight now lol

Many many thanks for your fork @GLS This is a great gift for this year end :)

For me it's just like you, i like Orbiter because it's light, customisable, portable, moddable, and as you said, the community is helpful ! I run it on my laptop when I'm travelling, it's great !

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to ask for this. A friend is 3D artist (examples of his work: 1, 2, 3, 4) and he's a space/flight sim fellow as well. I showed him Orbiter (and SSV), he saw that the flight deck was "old" (low poly/textures) and he offers his help to make a beautiful...

Bye bye 2023, Let's go 2024 !

Bravo !

Yes SSV can deploy and recapture a vessel back in its bay. I did it with a custom payload, I all did was to have a XS attach point for bay, and a GF for the RMS (explained the SSV manual as GLS said above). We need to take the XYZ coordinates of the payload before launching it in order to...

I wanted to convert it to DDS but the texture isn't ^2 or square Unless Orbiter handles JPGs for the textures ?

Same here, I don't have this texture file. And I know that Orbiter doesn't like a missing texture, it causes CTD. Where can I find Eureca so I'll take a look with the JSON mission file to see if I can make it work on my end later ? Is it this one: STS-46 for ShuttleFleet ?

Hello @MaxBuzz, I took the liberty to edit Stykovochnyy Otsek to make it work with Space Shuttle Vessel, edited the orientation of the docking port :) I'm doing this based on photos, I don't really find documentation that clearly says the degrees. Great work btw ! Cheers !

I'll ask my friend to try your recommendation. I know he started from the default STS-101 template and just edited the mission name with STS-900. He didn't change the OTHER VESSEL parameters for the ISS or anything else).

A few screenshots from my last missions: Here LGS-7 with a lab module and a CMG to keep the station on its LVLH. Then LGS-8 with a solar module in the bay (made with VesselBuilder, it's awesome). and LGS-9 made on tuesday to bring a custom MPLM called Michelancargo 😋 Now it's...

Incredible work GLS as always ! Can you tell us what's switches v2.0 ? A new way to interact with the cockpit ?

Welcome welcome ! :)

Oh nice find !

Amazing details, we need a tool to automize this process, kind of Ortho4XP in X-Plane.

the LCC, pad and all has their own code to launch the Shuttle. Even is needed to be at the KSC or Vanderberg, I tried to place SLC-6 at Kourou in French Guyana, it didn't work :p I wonder if we edit the textures and save them as transparent (1x1 pixel even), would it make the vessel transparent...

Heyyy I like to play that game too lol DGex with Energia. it worked si I wanted to try heavier, like the Vanguard xD But it couldn't reach orbit so I tried with TWO Energia, it's a fail lol I also tried this thing with Hyperion LV, very KSP-like haha

Yes that's a SILTS pod. In SSV Mission Builder if you create a scenario and choose Columbia as a base template, you can select to have the SILTS pod or not.
