Black Dart Revival Project, second day: Making it run again, using Orbiter_NG and DirectX 9

(I usually create this bases when I need a runway for a bad reentry)

Ahah so when you miss a reentry, you create a base where you fall just to make a good landing ? :lol:

You're the Chosen One in the Matrix

So we finally get to see this eh? Funny, it almost looks like its painted in Luftwaffe colors :hmm:

It's one of our stops, actually... :hide:

Don't worry, I've had to deal with Star Children before. They're actually quite crony-ish--you can easily bribe them with shiny planets *cough* I mean rocks. Don't try giving them dominoes though. They find that insulting

Night loading operations in preparation for Chronus 9

I didn't find out about Orbiter until right after Orbiter 2010 came out. I was interested in seeing what the program use to look like, so I downloaded the oldest version I could find from OrbitHangar and gave it a go. It's so ghetto looking!

But I managed to rendezvous on my first try:



I'm going to have to dig into the manual to figure out how to dock though. (There aren't any buttons on the MFD's and I can't seem to find the keyboard shortcut for changing to a docking port.)

-----EDIT-----

I figured out how to dock. You have to press CTRL+D to request docking clearance. Once you get clearance, Dock MFD automatically changes to the docking port.



Steady... easy does it.



And docked. gg

Some pics of Chronus 9:

Lovely retrograde sunset with the Pleiades.

In orbit waiting to catch Odyssey.

Bay doors open.

Odyssey in sight.

Approach.

Another angle.

Station-keeping! Ready for cargo and crew transfer.

Indy's EVA.


The rest of the operation was too tense for taking pictures...We had a tight timeframe.

The Altair under construction at the Shipyards Orbiting Upsilon Andromedae D-I. (really wish there was an actual name for it). The vessel will be used for a flyby and return of UPS D-II.



And launch!



Aerobrake is a resized version of Izacks aeroshield down to a 27 m. I just couldnt come up with a way to elegantly attach enough fuel tanks for the 11000 m/s round trip, so I'll have to aerocapture the return phase. 8500 m/s isnt bad for using Nervas though.

Beautiful!

Beautiful!

Thanks. Unfortunatelly I'm still waiting for HDD circuit boards to resume work on XR3 (hoping they'll work). All I have now is 50% of mesh and no crew meshes at all. :/

Worst case scenario - new crew meshes and getting the mesh done from mesh I've sent to Woo few months ago (seen in picture).

Donamy's HTV3, in D3D9 with new textures.

Wow that is a stunning pic right there. Gotta love D3D9 client with the reflective surfaces.

Constitution towed to KSC SLF for PRIOPS checkout.
Monday, 12 April 2021 01:32:15 CDT.



Orbiter Vehicle Constitution has arrived at the Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility, Runway 33, in order to run the first of twelve major systems checkups prior to her re-certification into active flight status. She was towed the short distance from Orbiter Processing Facility #4 after a brief ceremony.

The orbiter, having completed a ten month Orbiter Maintenance Down Period (OMDP) following the successful completion of SEP-010, has been the subject of intense scrutiny and review. The entire spaceframe had been disassembled completely and inspected in detail, and the reconstruction of the vessel lasted two months beginning in January of this year.

To date, no plans for flying Constitution have been announced. Enterprise remains grounded at Edwards Air Force Base pursuant to her own ongoing OMDP.

God I love me some good old SEP-Constitution pr0n.

Sadly the Altair's first flight was a decided disaster, a YASIOLEO that wasn't even orbiting Earth! So the ship returned to the docks for further refitting.



Unfortunately, a few tweaks still remain to be implemented, but the design is almost ready. :thumbup: More on this later.
