Patience, this is a project that will take a long time to complete so don't expect daily updates. Besides I can only dedicate a few hours a day to this. With that out of the way here's the latest work:

Latest work, finished up the OAA A/C ducts, at least to where they make a bend north onto a platform on the hardstand itself which I do not have.

The early work on the new White Room, devoid of any equipment:

After a few days away from this, I decided to work on the RBUS platform/porch making it more accurate and in style of the rest of the new FSS. The porch section is complete less the top beams. I still have to do the platform bottom and top beams and handrails. All in all, so far I have spent around 8 hours researching and modelling what you see in the below screenshots.

After 6 days of work, the RBUS platform/porch have reached 100% structural completion! Only things left are the kickplates and the actual grating.

How is the White Room perspective now?

What do you mean? Do you mean if it is open instead of the solid block we have now? If so, then yes, it is fully open.

Yes, and how it does compare to the NASA TV camera views during crew ingress or OAA retraction.

Should be pretty accurate. I can't test it in GMAX as doesn't do close-ups that good due to clipping. The screenshots currently show both the east door that faces the orbiter and the north door that folds inward to clear the side hatch being open in the event of a Mode IV Emergency Egress in their closed positions (nominal). But they to have the provisions to be animated in the future.

Due to a mild cold I have had to put this on a pause while I recover. Hopefully this unplanned interruption won't last too long,
