    Your Favorite Orbiter Advantages

    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 !

    Advanced Question 3D modelling for Orbiter

    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...

    Project Space Shuttle Vessel

    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 ?

    Project Space Shuttle Vessel

    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 ?

    Project Mir station complex / UR-500 family

    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...

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

    Project Space Shuttle Vessel

    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...

    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.

    Yesterday was a fun day for me. I guided a friend who's novice with Orbiter and SSV (but a KSP veteran) via Discord's screen share. We assumed the roles of CDR and PLT, him being the PLT and me the CDR yelling instructing him what to do. We continued on my virtual Space Program with Shuttle...

    Yes, the Shuttle you see being carried by the SCA is from ShuttleFleet.

    It's NASA AIrcraft Fleet 4.5 by David413 that you can find on Simviation here: https://simviation.com/1/browse-Orbiter+Addons-142-1 The plane doesn't work well on the ground (even with the legacy contact point addon), but once in the air, it flies normally. It's was made to work with...
