In this thread i introduced my current addon project, a Single Stage to Orbit Airbreathing Vessel using Polywell Fusion Reactors.

Here is now a more detailed concept of the engine.



as you can see in the picture above the engine consists of the following parts:
1. MHD Extractor
This device is used at high mach numbers only. The inflowing airstream is...

I discovered Orbiter two years ago. Since that time my favorite group of add-ons has become, by far, Greg Burch’s “future history” series. The release dates of Greg’s add-ons span more than one version of Orbiter and (as he points out in his add-on documentation) a steadily advancing “state of the art” of his own abilities. As a result, things don't "fit together" quite as well as I'd like.
Greg has a very clear vision of the future he wants to portray. I respect that and have no...

So, I thought I'd make a short tutorial covering panels in vessel modules. I'm currently adding a panel to EOP, so I'll use it as an example.

Part 1: Preparing the Panel

1. First, get a panel drawn. I'm using wehaveaproblem's panel that he drew specifically for EOP. I'd reccomend you make the dimensions 1024 x 768, as this is compatible with most resolutions.

2. Bring the panel to the bottom of the image, and leave the rest white:

G'Day.
I've decided to hold out on this mission after i come back from a trip to Canberra. If the sound pack is ready i'll plan it around somewhere in September.
I've been installing visual enhancements for the moon and earth for the best visual effect as possible. I've also been finding MFDs that will help me fly to the moon.
I've even printed out the original Apollo 11 flight plan from the Apollo 11 Flight Journal, i'll follow this flight plan so i do everything at the historical...

G'day.
During the flight, i will going to take pictures of all activities during the flight both interior and exterior. I will post the good looking ones on the blog and keep the random ones and not very good pics in storage.
I'll also be making a small movie of the flight, so does anyone recommend a video editer that is kind to Orbiter, if you have to pay for them bugger off
I'll keep you updated on the goings-on in the planning.
Ryan.
