All is running well until I launch CRT MFD. Orbiter craches.
Maybe this is already posted but what it that?

Did you activate CRT, in the modules from the launch pad.

 

[the.punk]

Yes. When I start it orbiter crashes.

 

[retro]

wow I got it working ,really really sweet thanks to all that worked on this
super project!
ps now i use space shuttle missions 2007 a lot less.they have that sim all screwed up

 

[Interceptor]

What did you change, retro to get it to work.Thanks

 

[retro]

all i did was to delete the first download,redownload it stick it back in there and it worked,crt problems are gone and i already took sts 126 into orbit,only issue i see is the obs is sticking out of the cargo bay.
'was up all night now gonna play all day,hope this helps.

How did you solved into orbit I have these problems:
1.The platform doesn't retract
2. I don't get off the landing pad. It says hydraulic failure (apu not on?) but I had apu on
3.Redownloaded it and CRT MFD oroblem isn't fixed.

 

[Interceptor]

Thanks Retro I guess I'll try STS-126, then,instead of STS-120, untill things are fixed up.

What I'm doing wrong? The platform doesn't retract, I can't take off and I have these orbiter crashes when I start CRT MFD. I made all what is standing in the check list.

1: Which platform are you talking about?
2: CRTMFD is not required and very unstable and buggy at this time
3: Did you expect a complete and finished product? If so, your expectations was alot off from reality. In this case, you better stay away from SSU until it's more complete and bug-tested.

1. I don't know how it is called exactly but I mean the platform that covers the shuttle. In the scenario sts-126 launch it isn't retracted and I read that it retracts automaticly but it doesn't.
2. Ok I understand that it is not required.
3.I don't exepct a complete product but a few people reached orbit and I can't take off from the pad. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

1. The RSS does NOT automatically retract, you must do so ahead of the launch.
2. Does not apply here.
3. See above.

1. How do I retract?
3.What do you mean exactly?

 

[astrosammy]

I still need to get a good OMS-2 burn, but I made it into Orbit by increasing the AP target velocity, again great work, guys!

 

[Urwumpe]

1. How do I retract?
3.What do you mean exactly?

1. open the control dialog of the FSS/RSS structure (focus to LC-39X), by pressing CTRL+spacebar.
3. Sie müssen nur den Nippel durch die Lasche ziehen und mit der kleinen Kurbel ganz nach oben drehen. Da erscheint sofort ein Pfeil und da drücken sie dann drauf, und schon fährt die Service-Struktur aus.

Hey AstroSammy. what did you change to get the shuttle to go past T-minus 31, and launch in STS-120 scenario.Thanks

 

[astrosammy]

I don't remember what I changed exactly, but here's the scenario, it begins 24h before STS-120 launch:

EDIT: But somehow I get boosted out of the solar system after SRB sep.

 

[Interceptor]

Thank you. I'll give it a try but you already launched STS-126 into orbit and that scenario works ok.

OK finaly launched STS-126 and it looks amazing. Really good attention to detail.I wish I could see more because this ones a night Launch.

 

[astrosammy]

Ok, so how do I get the RMS controllable via Joystick? Sorry if it's in the checklist or manual, but I didn't find anything there.

 

[Donamy]

I think we settled on "cntrl+A", then "keyppad /" to make sure you are in rotation.

 

[astrosammy]

Great, got it, thank you Donamy!
