are those things about orbiter 2010 real or are it only stupit rumors ?

[zionn]

is it real ?

 

[Urwumpe]

is it real ?

Let me quote martins on that one:

"No. Orbiter 2007 will be out in 2008 at the earliest. Orbiter 2008 is then targeted for sometime between 2010 and 2020."

 

[ar81]

It will be released on Tuesday... which Tuesday? I do not know.:lol:

 

[martins]

I notice that Orbiter 2007 is somewhat behind schedule. I will have to redouble my efforts. Luckily, Orbiter 2008 is still on target.

I can now reveal that the release of Orbiter 2009 is planned to coincide with the first manned Mars landing (in other words, it's nearing feature completion).

If you want Orbiter 2010 then by all means download it.

Play the heck out of it and report any bugs.

Last I looked it was release candidate 2.2? That means the beta releases are all done and there just needs to be a bit more polishing to be done. As it stands now I've messed around with it as much as I have 2006(+P1) and the only trouble I've had were MY graphics issues, once solved it's all good.

There is a sticky on Orbiter 2010 here.

:rofl:

If it coincide with Mars landing, we may play Orbiter and show off before our friends and say we were already there and NASA came second... :lol:

O RLY

:yarly!:

The launch window sequences repeat after 15 years, there are seven launch windows in each sequence...and there are not many launch windows which would combine a 150 day journey with chemical engines or a 90 day journey with VASIMR, with a early Earth-return trajectory by a Venus flyby.

Considering that it's a public beta at the release candidate stage, it pretty much is here. All that we're waiting for is (perhaps) a couple of bugs before it is officially announced with great fanfare (though when that will be is unknown).

But you can go grab the release candidate any time.

[dumbo2007]

Well the version about to be released made some really deep changes that opened up a huge number of possibilities like an external graphics engine and LUA. I am just wondering what Dr Martin has in mind for Orbiter after this release.

Taking a break?

 

[Urwumpe]

Taking a break?

Sail around the world and plant a tree. :rofl:

 

[Linguofreak]

Sail around the world and plant a tree. :rofl:

Eh... Sailing around the world doesn't take that long if you do it with a Shuttle...

 

[Urwumpe]

Eh... Sailing around the world doesn't take that long if you do it with a Shuttle...

Yes, the sooner he can work on Orbiter 2008. :thumbup: With level 20 textures.

 

[Ghostrider]

Sail around the world and plant a tree. :rofl:

Yeah, that would be great. I'd like to do that, as well. Sail around the world, in a boat. And then plant a tree, in the boat. Like, dig a hole. Into the boat. And then plant a tree into it and, er... I've changed my mind and I'm so totally not planting a tree in any boat I'm sailing in. Instead, I'll hang a sail to the nearest tree and see what happens.
