Sorry, I must have missed that post.. But anyway, there exists an error condition with the "old style" MFDs and the first MFD update cycle is skipped. There's no clean solution to fix it. Should not happen with Orbiter Beta.

I meant this post in the Beta thread:

Using 16.1 and there is an issue with the animation in SF ET umbilical doors. This was a bug I remember happening many builds ago, where when the ET is jettisoned the doors snap from the open position to the closed position, and when I trigger the animation to also stow the MPS (which seems to be working normally), the doors then rotated into the orbiter.
Before I forget to say it: R16.2 is working very well. With this update Orbiter 2010 is beter then ever. MFD problems are gone indeed.
But there is something to notice, not really a problem, rather something funny, but maybe good to know:
When using Deltaglider IV vessel, and showing it's most lower 2D panel, pushing the down-arrowkey now results into the panel to be "stretched out" instead of it to move up, (ok, it's already a bit weird that this can be done indeed).

Tested 16.2 just now with a Shuttle Fleet launch, with the ISS 3.2 automatic launch sequence, and when the SRBs separate the ET umbilical doors switch from open to shut.
Thanks, I found the old fix from SVN.
The ExtMFD issue will be fixed from the next release. What buttons ? The ones in the main toolbar ? They should be working fine, although, I haven't tested the "true" full-screen mode for ages. I am running the Orbiter in a full-screen window.
Ok, just tested and they are working fine in all three modes in Orbiter Beta. So, what's the problem ?
jarmonik: Could you officially implement my more realistic sunset/sunrise colors? Data can be found in these two posts: http://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?p=450584&highlight=sunset#post450584 and http://orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?p=452006&highlight=toasted#post452006
Done.

Camera and Display do not for me, if it works for you then likely it is an issue on my end, I wonder if others have the same problem.

Yes this fixed the animation issue, but something strange has popped up with this one, and it is something I have never seen before so no clue what is going on. The OBSS is flipping around the attachment points at rapid speed.
I also check out my space station in orbit and the URMS is just flailing around, it is quite a sight to see.
Can you confirm that this is a new issue and does not occur in 16.2 ?
I have SF 4.8 installed, is the problem re-producible with it ? how ?

I think I found it. Just tested ISS A to Z and solar panels are rotating like propellers.:lol:

Yeah it is only a 16.3 issue, I have JSGME in my Orbiter install and I flipped around between the various 16 releases and then back to 12, only 16.3 exhibited the dancing to the rhythm behavior lol
And now I see the upper panel has the same thing, when pressing down, really funny.
Ok, thanks. It's now added.

I am not able to reproduce that. Is anyone else getting that ?

Kiitos!
Oh, and now think already I see why you didn't reproduce!:
I work with an important change of a setting: I have set the Panel scale to 2. *
When setting it back to 1, the panel does not stretch out and works normally.
* This setting change needs to be done as a work around for addons like the XR vessels and DG IV to work correctly with my screen resolution 3840x2160: these vessels do not really automatically scale their panel and their maximum size fits a 1920x1080 monitor, so it looks to small on my monitor by default.
That's a stupid issue, because the normal Deltaglider looks very bad with Panel scale 2, it's double in size. I need to switch out of Orbiter and change the setting back if I want to switch to between the different types of vessels.
