Oh, could be my mistake...please also try shift-J. (I usually have to try all three "J" combinations before I can achieve separation :P ) -----Post Added----- I admit to complete ignorance of TKS until now...I found this entry online. Interesting! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos_1267...

Thanks for the kind words, Tgep!

This is a beautiful add-on, No Matter! Are you working on a Salyut to go with it? Really love your work... MT

Welcome, Marty! This is the tutorial I followed when I was a newbie. It not only tells you which programs to start with, it tells you how to use them: http://www.eharm.net/shop/freeware/orbiter/developer/model2flight/model2flight.html After playing with Anim8or, which is the tool used in the...

Welcome Ithy! Don't feel lost in a sea of "experts" as we're all trying hard to learn here. (I've published a few add-ons but am still learning C++)

NASA had to switch to Craftsman tools when their toolbag got lost in orbit a few months ago... :P

Salyut 6 By MajorTom Released 2/24/2009 (a Tuesday!) Updated 2/27/2009, to version 1.01.  (Slight improvements to the manual, including more info on using Soyuz, and an additional download location for Progress M by No Matter.)Contents Record-setting Soviet space station Salyut 6 add-on...

Here's another way... Look in Orbiter\Utils at the little Date.exe program. Input date and time, and out pops your MJD. I use it all the time when setting up scenarios, without having to run Orbiter and then open Scenario Editor. Edit: Whoops, my answer's no good for you, since I now see...

I dimly recall there might be a TARDIS add-on. This MFD seems required equipment for you Time Lords out there...

The original poster, while seemingly innocent, is asking some difficult questions: Now that I'm in orbit, what now? Why go into space? "iam_inorbit," indeed you are, congratulations. I saw some of your earlier posts where you were having a rough time getting there. Why are you there? If...

Found this, my current desktop, while out browsing for Soyuz stuff...

RetroGrade Planet...look out!!!

Sorry to break in here, but maybe, just maybe, this thread will help: http://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=5999 (I've had numerous issues, some similar to T.Neo's, building my compiler, and EveningSky's advice was to basically wipe the slate clean then try again. Disclaimer: I've...

Hi Clavius, I've been meaning to play with World of 2001, available at the Hangar for download, but apparently the Leonov is not included with it. Where did you download it from? I've checked 4-5 other sites and haven't located it yet. MT

Yes, they might as well have said "the functioning and ground-controlled Iridium slammed into the defunct and derelict Russian Cosmos 2251..." :dry:

Argh, so close! They could have called it Carbon Observatory - Orbiting (CO2):rofl: Edit: although I'm sure they chose "O-C-O" for that reason. ;)

This is a very welcome development, Martin. The boundary between space and the atmosphere is one of my favorite areas to explore. Improving this model in Orbiter will give us better understanding of orbital decay, the long term future of "space junk," more realistic launch vehicle flights, the...

Update, 2/27/09Improved guidance routine with smoother, more realistic flight. Improved manual with better explanation of guidance system. Contents MinutemanII ICBM launch vehicle and dummy warhead (no nuclear explosions, folks).  Includes one scenario involving an automated launch out of a...

Looks marvelous mate...keep it up!

Yeah, and its launch vehicle strongly resembles Shenzhou's Long March 2F ;)
