Just a quick question. I know that there are virtual airlines for those who use flight sims, so I am wondering if there is a counter-world available for those who fly the Orbiter? Just wondering.... Thank you in advance.

Perfect. Thank you so much. That solved the problem.

I think I misspoke. I did do a SAVE from the Editor, and it put my NEW scenario into a list at the top of the Scenario window in Orbiter, under the name I used to do the SAVE. So I am sorry, but I did do that already. Thank you

Hello all...I am trying to make my own scenario, basically starting with a DGIV on the runway at KSC, with a satelite loaded in the cargo bay for later deployment. Here is my problem...I am able to start the Scenario Editor, click on New, then choose a DGIV craft and name it. The name I chose...

I am looking for a video and/or .pdf file, which explains how to fly the shuttle. I want to learn how to: 1. Launch the shuttle. 2. Put the shuttle into a stable orbit. 3. Load the cargo bay and once in orbit deploy the payload. 4. Safely reenter the atmosphere. 5. Land at an airstrip, i.e...

I recently downloaded and installed a few addons dealing with Woomera 6A and 6B. They seemed to install correctly, however, when I tried to run the scenarios, the program always crashed when it tried to load a file named cookiesheet_crackle_ofsq.dds. And it appears that each scenario dealing...

I can certainly see that now...and I have started the procedure over and over in order to learn the process by heart. I am also doing some reading to make sure I not only understand the terminology, but the reasons behind the processes I am doing in order to dock an earth based vehicle with an...

I finally got RInc to 0.00. I went back and made sure to wait until the ship was aligned with the AN and went right into translation and burned up or down, depending on how the RInc number responded and I finally got 0.00. I think I will be practicing that for a long time, but I finally got it...

I am approching an Ascending Node and I have set the craft to Antinormal for the burn. I get the RInc to 0.02 and there I lose control. Thank you again for the help, I will continue to try to get the number to 0.00.

Thank you all for the tremendous help and invaluable information. This is a wonderfully helpful community and I certainly appreciate the effort. Thank you all again. ---------- Post added at 11:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 PM ---------- OK, I tried the process explained above...

Thank you for this explanation, however, I am still too new to this program to understand what you mean. Is it possible that you could link me to a .pdf which explains this, or if you could step me through it? Better yet, is this process explained in the DGIV manual? Thank you again for the help.

I was watching the awesome video by Tex "DGIV to ISS Video Tutorial Redux" and while attempting to line up the orbits of the DGIV and the ISS, it was mentioned, by Tex in the tutorial, that he had to translate the DGIV a bit to get the RInc exactly to "0.00". I understand everything up to the...

Thank you. I had assumed that the Quicksave folder would be in the Scenario folder, but for some reason, when I originally looked I did not see it. I just went back and there it was. I set up a new sub-folder in the Quicksave folder and put the "special" saves I did not want to lose into it...

I have been accumulating quite a few scenarios in my Quicksave folder. Some of them I do not want, while others I would like to keep. This brings me to my question: Where does Orbiter save the Quicksave scenarios? Normally a program will store your saved games/scenarios in a seperate folder...

I recently installed the addon Tranbase_A11.zip to my Orbiter folder. The addon sets up a folder under Scenarios named "Return to Tranquility Base". The first scenario in that folder is named "Are you want to driving down)))(Find Cat Paw)". I ran this scenario and it loaded, however, only a...

Hello, just wondering if there is a listing available that lists the basic hotkeys. For instance...to increase thrust while in the DG you hit Ctrl and +(numpad). I am new to the orbiter and I am slowly learning which keystrokes perform which function, however, it would be nice to have a...

Thank you for the quick comeback, however, I am new (about 3 days now) to this program and I have no idea where to find the utilities you mention. Please let me know where to find them. Thank you

I have noticed in various tutorial videos that the spacecraft in the video always starts off on a runway. When I go to the required scenario in my program and run the scenario, I always seem to start up out in the grass/ in a field, somewhere away from the runway. Is there a setting to make...

If you are the one who makes the TexFilms, I need to say...Amazing job. I have subscribed to your TexFilms on YouTube and am looking forward to many more videos in the future. Also, I have to ask, did it take you a long time to learn how to operate the Orbiter with the skill and expertise you...

Hello, first I wanted to thank you for your addon covering Tranquility Base. My problem however, is that I cannot seem to get it to work correctly. I have installed the main addon and also MESHLAND and the Apollo Project addons. The other 2 addons you mentioned are either scenario specific or...
