Update Shuttle Fleet V4.7.1 (PATCH)

[David413]

Just about ready to release the updated Shuttle Fleet (V4.7.1). I'll be releasing a complete new package along with a patch only for those of you that have already downloaded V4.7. Corrections in this patched version are the previously identified arm tilt issue, the corrected Vandenberg.cfg file, the code has been corrected for the "Contrail4.dds" reference and the camera jump issue when using the shuttle's arm. Finally, a new GPCMFD screen has been developed and added to simulate the SPI (Surface Position Indication) MEDS display. Any last minute items (I'm still looking at the ascent lofting that has been identified...)?

You are confusing the GPCMFD with the AutoFCS (of which I'm not the author). So, "no", the patch will not fix this problem unless the new AutoFCS is available for release with the patch (which is up to the AutoFCS author, not myself).

Could you add a rolling attitude ball MFD?

I have no plans to work on this in the near future. Sorry, I have limited time and other add-ons to support; the current surface MFD is sufficient for my needs.

I guess I should have been clear in my initial post; I'm looking for any additional bug reports for the V4.7 to correct prior to releasing V4.7.1, I'm not soliciting requests.

Oh, sorry I misunderstood your first post, I thought you were asking for requests.

Hi Dave
According to SF manual I can use ODS model from thorton's ISS add-on by entering "ISSV1" in place of "ODS" in .scn file. For me this operation makes ODS invisible. I can only use it with scenarios which are included in throton's ISS add-on.
Is there something I'm doing wrong or something you can fix?

Dave, would it be possible to add a center of gravity shift feature for the entry phase? The real shuttle does this with proper payload positioning and fuel dumps, if I remember correctly.

hi. I'm having a problem with shuttle fleet 4.3. When I start the engines for any one of the shuttles, for some reason only my shuttle's engines fire. My SRB's don't. anyone know how to fix this?( it is funny though to see the shuttle fail at launch)

 

[diogom]

A11, are you using Orbiter 2010P1? If you are, install the 4.5 or 4.7 Fleet, because the 4.3 was made for the 2006P1 version.
If you are using 2006, then I will leave it to Dave to answer .

BTW, Dave, how's the status on the ISS Fleet? Can't wait to have it on 2010P1.

Thanks a lot diogom. I will try it

in the next shuttle fleet or in an add on can you make the panels in the shuttles more detailed where you can flip switches?

Out of the scope of what Shuttle Fleet was designed to do.
You're basically asking him to recode everything he's done so far.

Go download Space Shuttle Ultra (SSU).
You'll get your flippy switches there.
