My opinion: I like manually controlled features. Playing with all the widgets and gadgets is a large part of the fun.

I meant the actual flight instruments on the instrument panel. Attitude indicator, altimeter, mach meter, VSI, etc. The "steam gauges" that a player would use to fly the orbiter through reentry and landing in cockpit view. If those aren't usable (and believe me I'm not suggesting you tackle that...

Do I understand correctly that the instruments in the MCDS version are just a texture, and non-functional? If that's the case, then I suggest leaving the HUD installed. Sacrifice a tiny bit of authenticity for increased usability.

I just want to thank you so much for tackling this whole project. The Space Shuttle is my all-time favorite spaceship, and this representation is looking great.

Just out of curiosity... do you have a goal in mind to call this mod complete? Or at least, complete enough?

After reading the YouTube comments denigrating Balsa as merely SimplePlanes 2, I saw SP was on sale for only three bucks, so I bought it and played around a little bit. Even this very brief trailer demonstrates the core gameplay of building and flying airplanes is so much more advanced in...

Better than The Last Jedi, not as good as The Force Awakens. Many enjoyable moments, but overall I felt they were trying to cram too much into one movie. Still a good ride and worth the ticket price. Keep in mind... it is literally impossible to please the Star Wars fan base, because we all...

If we build ridiculously overpowered airplanes, are transonic and supersonic effects modeled?

I'm so happy to see this!

Okay, I realized most of the scenarios giving me problems were from Gargantua2024's Space Shuttle Missions packs, but I also see that error in Orbiter.log after attempting to load Discovery2 on orbit. Considering that the same bug shows up in scenarios from more than one person, I figured there...

Yes, I got that far last night, reading the MS2015 documentation. So at least I know how to launch now! :thumbup: I like changing focus to the orbiter and opening MS2015 on one mfd, then setting that mfd to target the ET. Set all other mfds as desired, then hit AP. It works. Now I'm reading...

Ah, so my problem is I don't know how to use Multistage 2015. That makes things clearer. I'll go read up on that system. Thanks.

So I'm getting back into Orbiter after a long absence. 2016 version is very cool, but I miss the old Shuttle Fleet. I see this thread, and am very pleased! Then I try using the new shuttle... Apparently there's no option for a cockpit view? And I can't figure out how to launch; the SRBs won't...

103 attempts! :sweet:
