Here's another batch of screenshots that I don't believe that I've shared yet. Viking-2 entering orbit around Mars: The Viking-2 Lander on the surface with the discarded parachute in the background: The Venera-9 Orbiter in orbit around Venus: The Venera-9 Lander on the surface of...

It's not any one rocket, sometimes it's a Titan IIIe, other times it's an Atlas-Centaur. I'll post an example of one of my Titan IIIe setups with one of the Voyagers. [MISC] cog=0 telemetry=1 [TEXTURE_LIST] TEX_1=Exhaust_atsme TEX_2=Exhaust2 TEX_3=Contrail2 TEX_4=Contrail TEX_5=Contrail1...

Here’s a link to the page of the Multistage2015 Development thread where my conversation with the devs took place: https://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=35845&page=63 The entire conversation is contained on this one page, starting from the second post on this page.

Hey, I'm here with a problem that exists with the 2010 version of TransX and might exist for the 2016 version (I don't have an immediate way of testing it currently but I'll get right on that and add a follow-up post). Basically, it's an issue with how TransX communicates with Multistage2015. I...

Does anyone know what happened to the add-on for the Mariner-4 Mars flyby mission? I believe that it was uploaded by Felipi1205 but it’s no longer available on Orbit Hangar. Any help would be appreciated.

I decided to redo the SCA flyover so I could better recreate this frame from the NASA film, "Go for SEP." The flyover shown in the film is from Free Flight 4, but I still wanted to try to get something that resembled what's seen in the film.

Did some atmospheric flying for a change. Flew the final Approach and Landing Free Flight of Enterprise and did a complementary fly over with SCA 905. Then I looped back around and landed 905 on Rogers Dry Lake. It's been a long time since I've done a landing in a traditional aircraft and...

The final Lunar Orbit and TEI is complete.

I've just done the jettison of the Lunar Module. I'm going to systematically go through and finish cutting together the audio centered around the CSM, before going back and doing the Lunar Module surface stuff. I had been working on the post-EVA Q&As the last time I was working on this but I...

STS-63, the "Near-Mir" mission.

You can get some of these original Multistage1 and Spacecraft1 add-ons working in Orbiter 2010 and (theoretically) in Orbiter 2016 by upgrading them to use Multistage2015 and Spacecraft4. I just got the old Pioneer 4 add-on (made by the same person who made the Vanguard add-on) working in...

Ah, sorry for the misunderstanding. This is Burn Time MFD with a Pioneer 11 escape burn loaded into it. There's no difference in times between MS2015 and MS2:

I believe R15 is the most recent release where GDI compatibility still works. That's the only other version I have on file.

I tried it again using Burn Time MFD alongside TransX and the results were a little bit better but not quite. There is a difference in the ignition times which gave me some hope: But the result was still an offset (not as bad as before but still off): In this instance I was using a live...

I put Ulysses into polar orbit around the Sun and got a nice portrait looking down at the 4 inner planets. I ended up approaching Jupiter from its south pole and it sent me going over the Sun's north pole first and then looping around to the solar south pole, I believe that the real Ulysses...

Any chance of seeing the GDI compatibility issue fixed with the most recent D3D9 client for Orbiter 2010 or has the 2010 version been abandoned in favor of Orbiter 2016? I also noticed that GDI compatibility also doesn't work in the latest version of the client for Orbiter 2016. For Orbiter...

I wasn't using a live payload with that particular add-on but it makes no difference whether the payload is live or not. ---------- Post added at 07:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 AM ---------- I've never used Burn Time MFD before but I will check it out the next chance I get.

There is no auto-burn with TransX (as far as I can tell) I do the burn when the time to burn counter reaches 0 and burn until the Delta V is at zero. I did use the auto-center feature for both burns, but manually tracking the green X gets a similar result as well. Both screenshots are of the...

Of all the gravity assists needed to get Galileo to Jupiter, the first Earth flyby was my favorite, with a pass over the North American continent at night:

I've noticed a bug in Multistage2015 for Orbiter 2010 where there's an issue with doing the ejection burn using TransX. I've not tested this with Orbiter 2016. The following screenshots are of an escape trajectory from Earth to Venus using both Multistage2015 and Vinka's old Multistage2. When...
