Out of curiousity I bought on of these calculators via ebay. Reason? It was a funky shade of blue, but more importantly these calculators were carried as backups on the Soyuz trips to Mir in case the computers failed. http://www.calcuseum.com/poc_08367.html...

So. I decided to get a little ferry mission going, whilst (trying!) to get used to IMFD and the XL5 Vanguard - she is quite the nice big bird to fly incidentally! :thumbup: Before taking off I've called up surface launch on IMFD, target moon, higher orbit program (no data from course) to give...

Not a bad little add-on! Tiny compared the Delta Glider on the pad next to the capsules. A nice idea having tracks in the dust around the various features. I was going to comment directly via OHM, but there's no thread set up yet it seems...

Can anyone help with this problem? I only noticed the "un-blended" textures (dark rectangular borders) after installing an addon, but not sure which one :facepalm: XR5 Vanguard maybe? :cheers: in advance.

All I can say is, it really is rather good! It got that lumbering old brick of a freighter (Clydesdale) out from LEO to a Lunar orbit. Why Clydesdale? Well, its RCS isn't that powerful, it's a bit slow to accelerate, but it has quite a lot of fuel. To quote Refuel MFD, its fuel tank is COLOSSAL...

It's been a while, but thanks to watching David Courtney's youtube vid on reentry from LEO using only the basic instruments I managed it :hailprobe: She handles reentry very well I think. Ended up using a powered portion of the return due to being about 200 km out from CSSC and unable to...

Or more specifically, the pads are just black octagons. Is it something to do with the surface tile or mesh height? Thanks.

and plasma effect. Everything else regarding the DGEX appears to work fine in D3D9 client. It's great that I can still use her with hardware acceleration :) But.. When using an addon skin (there is not very many extra skins - shame!) the nosewheel & strut are untextured. Having opened up the...

Does the main base building the dome have a breathable area in it? I've opened the airlock door sent the UMMU inside, closed the door, but there doesn't appear to be a breathable atmosphere. Is there meant to be one? Or is the airlock just a nice procedure to use when EVA'ing the base personnel...

Please? The spaceplane displays in D3D9, but the custom animations don't work and neither does the custom HUD (showing engine config & canard position). I've not actually test flown it within D3D9, only taxied it. Apologies if it appears I'm cross-posting (orbiter visualisation, vchamps Total...

Apologies if this may seem like another necro addon post (Clydesdale freighter was the first), but I'm trying to get back into Orbiter (2010 P1) and have the simulator similar to how I remember...with a few new bells & whistles of course! Mars just has something lacking without a representation...

OK I know this addon goes way back, but 2010 P1 runs the freighter fine...on its own. The scenario with the Dragonfly causes a crash. The cargo pods are not displayed, neither do they show up in scenario editor. Clydesdale V1.1 Is the Clydesdale just WAY TOO OLD,... or am I? :facepalm: Thanks.

Hello again everyone. Well, it's been some years since I was last a part of the ORBITER community, but I'm back...from outer space.... AHEM :D never was much good at singing. Anyhow, just been given a free pc tower by a friend who had to have the latest in upgrades for his gaming PCs, so now...
