I think DaveS said he fixed the issue but for some reason he has not checked in the new meshes...
I ve done my best to change the textures to fit the mesh in all other areas (mainly the vertical stabilizer and the FRCS module).
The new textures for all orbiter variants were ready to be released...
It seems there was an intermediate configuration for OV-103-104-105 between the first (your pic dated 1985) and the last. This pic shows Discovery on STS-85: the AFRSI on the PB doors roof does not merge anymore and it seems also it only partially covers the side fuselage.
The area around the...
Question about the TPS coverage on the fuselage: Columbia latest version (our 8thmod texture) had a different AFRSI layout (covering a larger portion of the fuselage and PB door roof compared to the latest Atlantis,Discovery and Endeavour). Was this AFRSI layout the same on EARLY Atlantis...
If you guys have no objections I won't add the cavity to the textures (actually it has been already and it shows in the current Atlantis texture; I'll simply remove it from the new upcoming textures)
As far as the TPS in that area it will remain even as I cannot spot any cover in the original...
So in summary: The textures will show the cavity only on the port side of both Atlantis (all versions) and Challanger. As far as Challenger TPS scheduled modifications I understand the changes were to be made post STS-51L (last flight) hence there is no change to be applied to the texture in the...
Question on the Lower Centaur RBUS Carrier Plate Foot Cavity: was it installed on both Columbia and Atlantis? Should it show on both "original" and "mods" versions of the orbiters?
I have a sinilar one but I am afraid the view angle is too much too make it usable for a texture..
BTW in SSU the top side of the vertical stabilizer pops up from the SILTS pod. That shouldn't happen since that part shoild be totally embedded in the SILTS pod :uhh:
Good news.
Finally all the OVs have their photoreal textures. I started from the rudder which now not only matches the new SSU mapping but it has been basically re-painted from scratch thanks to some hi res pictures of the real orbiter I used. Then I worked on Columbia original and 8thmod...
Done it but unfortunately it didn't fix the issue. I ve also tried substituting the Earth.cfg file with the one from another install on the old PC but still the problem is there, so I am not surre this all depends on the Earth.cfg file... could it be some corrupted stuff in my Orbiter download...
