D'oh, for some reason, the first time I opened the program I got a blank black cmd window with C:\Orbiter\Utils\tileedit.exe as its header, then after a few seconds the GUI opened :facepalm: Thanks guys! :embarrassed: ---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM...

So, I'm a complete novice. Following the .pdf created by mxk found here Bulgaria airports 2016 with Face's help, I was able to create the tiles with elevations for a new base. I need to flatten a portion of the tiles to place buildings and a Launchpad. I've installed the MATLAB R2015a runtime...

I don't know about that. Longer, lower, wider, faster, and after day one of testing; Mercedes, Ferrari, Williams...

Moved it to C:\ and renamed it Orbiter160828 with success:woohoo: Thanks Face:tiphat:

I've actually tried it both ways with the path c:\Users\Michael\orbiter_160828\... and c:\Users\Michael\Desktop\orbiter_160828\... But I haven't done this c:\Users\Michael\Desktop\ot3>treeman ..\orbiter_160828\textures\earth Surf -b ..\orbiter_160828\config\earth\base\cheyenne_mountain.cfg...

Face, Thanks for the response. cmd.exe, clearly I'm a novice here. Gattispilot and I are working on an add-on that requires a new base. I'd created its .cfg and tiles for the base in 100830 and want to convert them to the 160828 format. Thanks again, Ben ---------- Post added at 07:19 AM...

I admit I'm out of my element. I'm trying to create a base for O160828 following the format suggested in the .pdf contained here: Bulgaria airports 2016 I have created the tiles, textures, and .cfg for O160828 but I can't get ot3 to work. When I extract it to my desktop and type the command...

All of the Mercury 7 are gone now. I was 9 when John Glenn lifted off in Friendship 7. I made a mock up of a Mercury capsule out of cardboard boxes. At the time, an edition of the Weekly Reader had an illustration of the Mercury's instrument panel. I took every copy I could find and pasted one...

I see the bump up in framerate without the VC but I think the experience is more immersive with the VC.

I'll miss Ron Glass (and Shepherd Book) as well. I sure hope you're right Urwumpe...

Gatttispilot is refining the coding. The Endurance, Ranger and Lander are modeled and flyable. Still working out some bugs with respect to cockpit rendering.

Man, that was one hell of a race! Max Verstappen was kickin' it!

Another interesting quali. Let's see if the championship is decided in Brazil?!?

Don't know about that. The Red Bull's didn't have the power to run with the Mercedes so their tire strategies were screwed from the start. The front three were almost set, the fun was watching how the rest of the top 10 duked it out!

Yeah, I think Lewis has had enough screwed up starts (either wheelspin or bogging down) for the season. His sector 1 for pole in quali was ridiculous! It sounds like Verstappen was admonished in the drivers' meeting and the rule clarification on movement under braking was directed at him. With...

Let's see what happens in quali. It's Hammer Time!

We've hit a wall here in creating a flyable Lander reentry. With the code shown above in Gattispilot's post we get somewhat predictable L/D behavior but a relatively flat AoA www.4shared.com/photo/8_VllTrHce/Lander_Reentry.html We need a little help writing the code for a more realistic L/D...

Even a brick has predictable lift/drag characteristics at hypersonic speeds. The problem we're having is that our current model of the Lander has erratic lift/drag performance. The ship is designed to renter inverted. As you vary pitch, the lift/drag response doesn't allow you fly a reentry...

Well, a new issue here. Gattispilot and Co. have modeled the ships of Interstellar; the Endurance, the Ranger, and the Lander. We're having an issue with the Lander. The Lander is designed to reenter Earth-like planets inverted (cargo pallets are attached to undersurface of the Lander so...

Q3 was interesting. The Silver Arrows have the pace and poise, a bit less so for Red Bull but what's up with Ferrari?
