Very nice skin! You should fix the folder structure in the .rar file, though. The folder called "XR5 Vanguard" should be "XR5Vanguard".

You could probably kick hard enough to basically stand knee-deep in an 8-foot deep pool. Hell, you might even be able to do dolphin-style jumps out of the water. Man, now I really want to swim in a lunar pool...

The readme mentions accelerating past what the crew can handle. If their virtual mass is being lowered with the ship's, wouldn't that mean that, despite the very high acceleration, they'd be feeling the same force? Like, take the Arrow, which accelerates at about 1 gee. If you reduced the...

Ooh, would it be possible to make a contrail texture that looks like the lightcycle trails?

Animated textures. It would take a chunk of RAM to work right, but using it you could make a planet's appearance vary by the season, or make aurorae, or watch the clouds move over Earth or any of the Jovians. I think, if nothing else, that would make Orbiter look incredible.

It's a mining vessel, so maybe the shape allows it to consume small asteroids and comets. Otherwise the designers just wanted something alien-looking. Whatever it is, it looks pretty cool, so not much else matters. I like using this ship for emergency rendezvous scenarios/testing to see how...

This wouldn't make a real stereoscopic 3D video. 3D doesn't use identical videos, it uses videos of the same event with two cameras at slightly different angles, which lets us perceive depth the same way we do in real life.

When I first saw drake's Stanford Torus upload on OH, I got pretty excited. I remember reading about the Stanford Torus when I was in elementary school, and I've loved the concept of orbital colonies since. But when I downloaded the addon and fired up Orbiter, I found that the habitation level...

It shows up fine in 2010-P1, but for some reason the animation doesn't work. I don't know much about the spacecraft.dll modules, but I took a look at the config file for sir mildred pierce's Big Wheel addon, which I'm assuming has the same animation, except slower. Both ini files have similar...

Thanks, but that's not the problem. The problem is that, when extracted, it asks to overwrite a file that doesn't need to be overwritten. I was saying that, rather than include a bkgimage.cfg file in the archive, just include the text we need to add to our bkgimage.cfg file in the readme.

Do you think you could just include the line to add to bkgimage.cfg in the readme file? As it is, the bkgimage.cfg file in the archive overwrites the user's bkgimage.cfg.

Lol, I didn't mean to say summation. I forgot that I made it closed-form, so I didn't actually calculate a summation. Answer's the same, though.

So I set up a summation of what I think is the function described in the limerick, which is a summation of 2^(n-1)*(2^n-1)/2^(n-1) = (2^n)-1. I decided to exclude the "-1" from the function since 2.02*10^20 >>>>>>>>> 1. Going by that, it's a simple logarithm, so I plugged log(2.02*10^20)/log(2)...

I use brianj's SolarSailEx all the time. I find solar sailing very fun, so I thought it would be cool if there were more more solar sail designs. I came up with this simple one. It's just an octagon with 8 attitude panels. I figure having 4 more panels would make oblique rotations easier to...

There is quite a bit of flickering, but this thing is so awesome I find it hard to notice.

Aside from the mesh flickering on the tether, this works perfectly well in Orbiter 2010.

When I first got UCGO, I ran the Arrow Auto-Land demo scenario. After the landing was completed, I unloaded my cargo and immediately selected a UMmu for EVA to unpack the cargo. After deployment, I switched to him and saw that he was dead because I forgot to deploy the crew lift first. :cool:

This is so fun to fly! If there were any attitude autopilots, this would be perfect.

This is nice to have, but it looks like the terraformed Moon and Venus aren't based on their actual topography, which I think is disappointing.

This was awesome to watch. The entire reentry sequence was absolutely crazy, and I have to learn how to do that landing now.
