    Software Problems rendering panels

    Hi all, I have a weird problem I can't quite wrap my brain around. So, I mostly run Orbiter on my mid-range Win 7 64 desktop with great success, but occasionally my laptop is all I have handy. Years ago, when the laptop had Vista installed, I had Orbiter 06 and (at the time) the RC for what...

    Rotating LPe in non-circular orbits

    So I've been playing around with the latest AMSO release, trying to optimize my lunar orbits while maintaining close association to the historical timeline. Using a combo of LTMFD and IMFD, optimization over AMSO's standard 110km circular orbit with respect to historicity wasn't too difficult...

    [IT] Term for parachute landing flare in Italian?

    So at the skydive center where I jump, we have a new student, Luca from Milan. He's having some minor problems with his landing flare, and realized he doesn't even know of an adequate Italian word for this all-important part of a canopy flight. Any of our Italian friends out there have a...

    Hardware Weird display problem

    Hi all, thought I'd bounce my issue off of you folks before venturing into the mysterious realm of the graphics card forum. I have a 5 month old computer rig, with an AMD Phenom II 6-core processor clocking 3.2Ghz, 8 Gb RAM, 1 TB HD, Win7 64 bit, and an AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series graphics card...

    Hardware New Machine Revisit

    Hi all. This is kind of a retouch of a recent thread (Recommendations for a New Machine), but one that hasn't seen new responses in a couple of weeks. I'm also considering a new platform, one totally dedicated to Orbiter and associated programs, plus a few other games I play infrequently at...

    General Question Very basic compiler issue

    Hi all, So, after modifying craft using vinka's custom dlls for years, I finally decided to try my hand at creating a custom dll for a vessel I'm working on. After some research, I downloaded and installed VC++2005 Express and Windows SDK for Server 2008. Problem is, neither appears to...

    OFMM Development: Spacecraft

    OK, so given that we're at some 19 pages already on the main forum thread for the OFMM, aka Project Prometheus, with everybody clamouring for attention on countless various subjects pertaining to this Project, it seemed best to start a page devoted exclusively to development of The Stack and the...

    "Breakthrough propulsion systems"?

    So after watching, then reading, the President's remarks at KSC last week, I get the strong impression that Obama really wants something innovative and new in a HLV for NEO, Mars and beyond, not just a rehashing of DIRECT or a reconfigured Constellation derivative. He used terms like...

    TransX TransX oddity ... compatibility issue?

    Hi all, So, I've been away from Orbiter for a few years (too cheap to buy a remote Numpad for my laptop, lol) but I recently saw that a new RC was available, gave it a shot, and lo and behold, I fell in love all over again! Except with TransX. Using the TransX build that came with the RC2...
