1. Learn writing proper titles for your threads. "Help" is a good reason to delete the thread right now.

2. You need the Deltaglider XR1 add-on.

Thanks, I just installed the XR1 addon. Orbiter doesn't crash but the Xr1 has the default skin on it.

You will need to edit the config file (or read the readme/manual) to change the texture.

 

[Arrowstar]

...as well as some graphic arts software (Photoshop, etc) to actually create the new skin, and a knowledge of the texture files used by the XR1 vessel.

I downloaded photoshopcs4 trial and I'm using the XR1 paint kit from this site http://http://www.dougsorbiterpage.com/index-3.html
