    Gaming Furymetal: a Dwarf Fortress succession fort

    Thanks Eagle, sounds good. :) DF really looks very complex, I love that. However, I'm a little bit confused about the game modes - maybe you guys can help me out a bit. I know what the different game modes offer but I'm not sure if I understand how they are connected to each other. Lets say I...

    Project Shuttle Concept

    I hope it won't. We already have lots of high-quality DG-type vehicles out there (XR1, DGIV, XR2...) - but for a real shuttle, like talking about a plausible successor to the real world space shuttle, there is nothing I guess.

    OFSS Pilot Briefing Room

    Just finished OFSS30 - I'm glad to be on board btw. :) I want to make some comments and maybe get some suggestions from you guys. 1. I usually have Nonspherical gravity sources and gravity-gradient torque enabled and I can rende-vouz the shuttle with ISS. I found it very difficult though to...

    OFSS Post Flight Scenarios

    OFSS 30 Successful CleanRoom docked to Neesys module. Problem: I did not realize I docked the CleanRoom to the wrong port untill I wrote the mission report. So its not docked on Port #6 but on the opposite side of Neesys. But thats not a problem a quick EVA (aka Scenario Editor ;) ) could fix -...

    OFSS Call for pilots

    Hi there. I'd love to fly any space shuttle mission. As it seems there is no pilot for Mission 30 yet - I'd like to hereby sign up then. :) I haven't done a OFSS mission yet so you have to tell me which add-ons I need, where I can get the latest scenario file and all the regularities. :)

    Project Shuttle Concept

    Awesome model! :) I love it. I believe the space shuttle is still the most beautiful spacecraft out there and I always wondered why there is no real successor model out there. Now this ship only needs some great features like DGIV or XRx and it will be my first choice. ;) Btw: It reminds me of...

    Idea Would you use this?: "Orbiter Storyline"

    Sounds like a good idea! The most enjoyable thing for me in Orbiter was and still is to follow the true STS/ISS missions with the help of the respective add-ons or to create own "storylines" (i.e. a sequence of missions). This add-on would def. help to enhance the experience by these sequences...

    Question AutoFCS

    Ok thx for pointing things out. :) However, I'm pretty sure that one has to push the lower SEL button as well. If I don't push it, the shuttle continues to pitch up >> 40° even when at EI. But maybe I should have waited some more untill AutoFCS pitches down again to 40°. See you~

    Question AutoFCS

    Thanks David for your detailed reply. I used your .ZIP file and tried your scenario - everything worked fine. I just want to make things clear - so I know I understand the procedure: 1. AutoFCS will _not_ perform the correct de-orbit burn by itself. The user has to align planes accordingly (or...

    Question AutoFCS

    So the user is still in charge to do the de-orbit burn? And by "selecting" - you are probably talking about the SEL button in the pre-burn part? However, how does this influence the actual landing location of the shuttle? Yesterday I tried it again... my orbit passed right over Edwards AFB so...

    Question AutoFCS

    Hi there. I have some questions related with AutoFCS. Hopefully you guys can help me out. :) The issue is the following: I have installed the ISS Addon (International Space Station V.3) by following the installation instructions step-by-step. I used a clean Orbiter folder for this...

    Update International Space Station v.3.0

    Found another issue. Maybe its only me but I just docked to the ISS on STS-88 and uhm... somethings missing here. ;) Yes, in this picture the shuttle is already docked. I know from the Shuttle Fleet documentation, that there is a command to add the docking port (ODS?) to the scenario file -- so...

    Update International Space Station v.3.0

    True. I realized one can just copy the STSGuidance.dll into the modules folder and it will work. :)

    Update International Space Station v.3.0

    Hi there. Your addon is awesome - I gotta say that :) I have one question though: The basic Shuttle Fleet package has the STS Guidance MFD which is a great tool for orbital maneuvers (esp rendevouz). After following your installation instructions though, the STS Guidance is not listed in the...

    Idea Autopilot / Interface for external data input

    Hi there. Currently I'm working on my diploma thesis in mathematics/optimal control and this includes the calculation of optimal climb profiles of rockets (and some other similiar applications). Now I think you guys will agree that it would be awesome to use the calculated data as a "autopilot...

    Avatar movie

    Same here. From the trailer this movie looks like typical output from daily hollywood factory: nice visuals, crappy story and bad characters. Teh bad humanz are invading a paradise-like planet with elves in the trees, only to get the ressources. A hero shows up. His bad master orders him to...

    Project Universal Car for Orbiter (UCO)

    Good to see that this is still going in a very impressive way. :) Dan, after trying out your FsP demo during the last days I just ordered the full license. I have to say that FsP simply makes FsX 100% - vanilla FsX looks "incomplete" without your awesome work. So hopefully your UCO project...
