OHM 3D Sun

[OrbitHangar]

Author: dagoO

This is the first 3D Sun that you can found for Orbiter. you will find two new halo textures with it. (a white one and a yellow one wich is in the screenshot)

It does not require any add-ons, if you have already downloaded a Sun texture, it will not probably work.

Read the ReadmeImportant file, you have to add the star in your Sol.cfg file. (to avoid some bugs with anyother download planets)

Now for Orbiter 2010 P1 !

Could something like this be included in the next version of Orbiter?

 

[Hartmann]

Pros: superbe impression !
Cons: les taches peut etre un peu sombres ?
Review:
Superbe texture et impression de 3D enfin! Merci beaucoup. Ce qui est bien c'est qu'en vue cockpit 3D il apparait un peu plus sombre ce qui simule bien la protection. ( Je sais pas si c'est fait exprès ) je me demande pour les tâches si les éclarcir ne serait pas aussi bien dans l'impresion générale. Ceci dit, elles sont peut etre très sombres en vrai, mais occultées par la luminosité ambiante. ( pour les voir faut un filtre ) Donne envie de s'y frotter.

I haven't installed this yet, but I'm wondering if anyone's tried to get close to it, and if so, how close?

Testing on Orbiter 2010, adding "Planet9 = Su" to the Sol.cfg file seems to cause troubles with UMMU 2.0 astronauts walking on planets. No idea why this would be.

It does not works on orbiter 2010. But i have already already pointed out the problem, i just have to publish a new one.

I'm haveing the same problem with the 3D stars in all my solar systems but can't find the problem.

 

[DagoO]

That's because of the 0 semi major axis. Just push the star a bit far away and it will work.

 

[donatelo200]

O ok. I will try that now

 

[DagoO]

Even by putting the semi major axis at 0.1 by example, it will not be perfect cause the star will twinkle. to repair that you can put an alpha hole at the center of the 2d texture, to see only the star without something behind.

Getting close to the sun makes orbiter crash.

Actually, it's Orbite'rs way of saying, " Game Over, you've melted." :facepalm:

[theoriginalchill]

was just strange when i tried to set up orbit around the sun it started acting weird warped my orbit and sucked me in. The orbiter crashed.

Tried it at sundown, still crashed just wasn't as bright.

This add on opens up new possibilities for sun add ons.

 

[Carmen A]

Yeah, like Orulex terrain for the sun
