How large is your Orbiter?

[ar81]

...Why does this thread sounds like a PG-13 variant of that thing dimension-one measurement comparison?

When you have males in a forum, the comparison is unavoidable.
Human males compete a lot... :lol:

10.8 GB on 5 installs, including a packrat's collection of meshes, models, textures, references, and code.

When you are at some place in which along the people around, there is one very rich guy, you will see that human females compete a lot too

More seriously after a hard drive format and a reinstall, i got Orbiter with only the addons i can't fly without anymore.

This way i could start relatively clean with Orbiter before adding more content potentially ruining the framerate, creating more incompatibility errors etc...

I was surprised to see the size being a bit more than 600 mb.
nearly 75% of those 600mb are the planets and other floating rocks textures.

247 MB to 1.7 GB each in 7 seperate installations of Orbiter. I like to seperate the addons to minimize problems and shorten load time.:beach:

It's not the size that counts, it's how you use it.

She lie you.

About 1,5 gb , I have an instalation with a lot of addons. and scenarios all classified in programs .For example:

Spaceships ( but realistic )
USA new program
Russian and esa Actual real addons
Deltagliders
Energy , buran, and tugs ,
shuttle fleet
History and modern probes...

I tried to do a "full" instalation , but it´s a challenge because some times there are addons conflicts and one addon requires another to work...

Sadly there aren´t any big pack like in another games ( GWX in silent hunter ) so i´m trying another new installation usin a addon manager

JSGME allows me to keep it one folder. And while I've heard thickness is important, I believe size and efficiency are most important.

 

[Brycesv1]

no. its how long you can hold that size that truely matters

I've never had a problem holding sizeable volumes over significant amounts of time and my hard drive is very, very experienced.

 

[ddom2006]

Mine is a measly 910MB, Feels rather insignificant now :lol:

 

[Ark]

4.65 gigs.

My second one for LEO-only operations because the first was getting too crowded? 2.95 gigs.

Also 1.31 gigs of addons stockpiled on my external drive.

 

[Brycesv1]

3.54 GiB.

 

[cinder1992]

My O2006 folder is: 2.24 gigabytes

my O2009-RC1 folder is: 209 megabytes

my add-on folder (excluding files not yet
transferred from downloads) is: 1.95 gig

my downloads folder is mostly addons... but there are some random other files, so I chose to ignore it (even though it contains 9/10 of my addons)

 

[the.punk]

2.83 GB

For one installation. I often mess ud my installation and then I install a new one.:lol:
