is there a good Buran Spacecraft addon available for orbiter 2010? i thought it would be nice to see "the other shuttle"
thanks
thanks
Yes, it did. What it didn't have was any main propulsion system engines equivalent to the SSMEs. Instead those were mounted on the Energia LV.Besides the shuttle's orbital engine (Buran didn't have one) the parameters should be almost the same.
I have read somewhere, though not from a very secure source, that some russian scientists are trying to revive the Buran program, meaning it would fly again and replace the US Shuttle. Though, I think that's very unikely.
But nevertheless, it would be great.
As with many other addons that stopped working, the easiest way would be to reuse the meshes (there's some good work there). There's a spacecraft3.dll version of Atlantis so there's already a nice workbase. Besides the shuttle's orbital engine (Buran didn't have one) the parameters should be almost the same.
A Buran VC is something that I always wanted to do....
Where can I find that SC3 Atlantis? I've looked in OH, can't find it.
So I looked for it, came here to ask where it is, and I had I all along n my SC3 folder. :facepalm: I'm thinking of making a Buran that works in 2010P1. Nothing very complicated, just a SC3, with this: BuranDEV
Of course, I'll do it if no one else isn't doing it already!
There are three Buran addons available, but if I'm not mistaken, none works in 2010.
