    Back from Orbiter 2006

    Just want to say: STSPayloads is one of my most memorable Orbiter experiences. You really put a lot of time and effort into getting everything working, despite some of the shortcomings of pylon at the time. Hats off to you Gazza.

    IMFD DGIV Interfering

    I've had the same issue that you have. The Enter key on the alpha side of the keyboard shares it's functionality with the DGIV's computer. The Numpad enter works fine.

    Crazy Ice in Pittsburgh

    We've had some crazy icy weather in Pittsburgh, and there are some steep hills. This happened the other day. Maybe this belongs in the physics forum. An object in motion........

    A UCGO pushback cart would be pretty cool. Am I right? Something like: That would be Badass.

    I've always had the best luck with Aerobrake MFD, and the Manual Re-entry autopilot on the DG-IV.

    Problem Hi-Res KSC flashing textures

    A little update: Strangely, I tried the same setup/scenario on my ATI laptop and got the same results. This lead me to believe that the issue was not caused by graphics card issues.(Though thanks for the suggestion) When I used the default orbiter END1/END2 against the hi-res base cfg, the...

    Problem Hi-Res KSC flashing textures

    I'm a long time orbiter user that is just getting back into it. I've forgotten a lot of the tricks I used to get scenarios to work before. Anyway, I'm trying the DGIV-2 KSC Runway 33 to ISS scenario, and I'm using the Hi-Res KSC addon from kukanotas.(Orbiter 2010) It seems like when I am...

    Apollo By the Numbers

    Greetings, In the Apollo By the numbers documents, they make several references to "Space Fixed Flight Path Angle(deg)", and "Space fixed Heading Angle(E of N)". I understand that these are describing the craft's current attitude in space, but what is the reference point that is used. I guess...

    Idea Mobile Orbiter App

    Hello all, Ascii Here....Long Time Orbiter user. So I got this new Android phone and thought to myself, with the new Orbiter Beta out there, and the graphical and physics elements separated. How cool would it be to look at portable MFDs and even pull off simple maneuvers with a mobile phone...

    Avsim hacked!

    I disagree. When hackers attack companies, jobs are created. More criminal activity = bigger police force. Most hackers don't make a cent off of their activities. Much as a common vandal makes nothing off of a spray paint tag. Attacks like these are more for disruption and mischief than...

    "From the Earth to The Moon" an AMSO 1.17 Apollo 11 Full Mission Tutorial Using IMFD

    Has anyone ever attempted to do the 3 sec SPS evasion maneuver after jettisoning the S-IVB? I understand that in reality there were a few extra seconds added on to the TLI burn to make up for the 3 sec Retrograde TLI burn that was done after jettison. Will doing this in AMSO put you too far...

    General Question Tips to help organize my addons?

    I will normally extract the normal addon to my MODS folder. i.e. AMSO 118 then if i make any cfg files changes I will make them in a new addon "AMSO Modified". This keeps the original addon intact. As long as you keep the same directory structure that orbiter has, everything will go in the...
