Any idea when the next orbiter version will be out & what to expect? I'm guessing 2 to 3 years optimistically thinking. What I would like to see in the next Orbiter build is all necessary addon utilities like Spacecraft & Stage DLL included in the build & full compatibility for older addons. I...

I guess I can try downloading the Arrow Freighter addon to 2010 on my new computer. That I know should work. Do you have a link to where I can download 2010? Cant seem to find it through Google anymore. I just have 2016 which tends to have issues with older addons like Arrow & the other UCGO stuff.

Been having issues with all Arrow Freighter scenarios not loading in Orbiter 2016. Downloaded it directly from Dan's Orbiter page as I've done in 2010. I have Spacecraft 4 now so that shouldn't be an issue if it ever was. I remember downloading it with no utilities in 2010 & it worked just fine...

Cool, I'll give it a try.

Doing it from the config file just seems like an unnecessary extra step. I just wish it was more like how its setup in Microsoft flight sim where we can edit keys from the main menu. As for feasibility of a HUD or MFD programmed into Orbiter as a checkable module, I think its entirely possible...

I've always struggled with figuring out what keys do what in Orbiter while playing with an addon or scenario. So I figure a display of some kind ether in the form of a HUD OR MFD that show what function is assigned to what key could be a good idea. It would be much easier than digging through...

Welcome! Yeah Orbiter 2016 has been having a few issues here & there. Its relatively new compared to Orbiter 2010. What kind of issues are you having? If its with addons its usually ether a compatibility issue with an old addon on a newer version of Orbiter or a lack of utilities. Spacecraft 3...

Interesting. I may give it a try. I'll probably have to get it on my old PC since it still has 2010. Any tricks that might help it work for 2016? Been doing all I can so I'm not relying on such an old PC. What exactly could cause an addon to not work with a newer version of Orbiter anyway? I...

Cool, it looks like the DG/DGS already has a bay door of sorts already rendered into it. Its just not functional:

I'm curious as to if anyone developed or is planning on developing an addon for DG/DGS that allows for a cargo bay door. Wouldn't be all that big based on the size of DG/DGS but it could be used for small satellites or a small fleet of cube sat deployment.Has anyone tried something like that?

Appreciate it thanks! Just downloaded & installed it. Hopefully it should fix a few addons that I was having issues with in Orbiter 2016.

Can someone provide me a download link to the Spacecraft 3 files? Cant seem to find them in the Hangar. It only takes me to addons that are compatible with Spacecraft 3 instead of the Spacecraft 3 download itself.

N_Molson; Interesting. I've thought about designing a stage adapter for DG/DGS so it can launch in a similar way on a modern liquid fueled booster like a Falcon or Atlas booster so it can be launched like the SNC Dream Chaser lifting body shuttle.

So I suppose the DG/DGS VTOL thrusters are only good enough for takeoffs from the moon or similar celestial bodies. Is there any way to tweak the VTOL thrusters so it can lift off from earth & Venus? Kinda ruins some of the included DG/DGS scenarios where its supposed to take off from a VTOL pad...

I guess it was just the DG that didn't have scram controls. They both really should though as it really saves fuel reaching orbit. I'm considering abandoning the DG & DGS altogether & switch to the XR2 which looks like a far more superior upgrade to the DG. Hopefully they made the XR2 virtual...

Shame what happened to center core. The curse strikes again. Hope they don't have those kinds of issues recovering the Super Heavy 1st stage. That would be a dangerous crash landing near the launch pad. I hear it was a thermal protection breach near the engine cluster from the stresses of a...

I recently picked up Orbiter 2016 after taking a long break since I used to play Orbiter 2010. I really enjoy allot of the updates they made to the game particularly the enhanced graphics & the new virtual cockpit for the Delta Glider is pretty cool & allot more useful & interactive but the new...

I've been on the hunt for a lander for the UCGO Arrow Freighter that is capable of transferring crew to it & landing them on planets with an atmosphere like earth or Mars. Since the Arrow Freighter isn't designed for atmospheric entry it would be nice to have an atmospheric entry capable crew...

The launch scenario keeps crashing on me. I have all the required addons including the Jarvis E rocket needed for the launch but it still crashes. Here's the log: **** Orbiter.log Build Aug 30 2010 [v.100830] Timer precision: 4.66608e-007 sec Found 1 joystick(s) Devices enumerated: 4 Devices...

Nice job! Better than slapping a US Air force sticker on the side of a Goa'uld death glider (just a little SG-1 humor) Textures look great and performance is outstanding. I love anything Stargate & this is one of my favorite ships from the series.
