Great. So in the sts2016 we updated some add ons. Basically changed the attachment values. Then pick which shuttle the early which was the 3 monitors on the front or the later 10 MFD one

So I also would be happy for:
1) STS-44 with great DSP satellite.
2) Spacelab in Orbiter is very old mesh, since ~2003. I have seen a lot of Spacelab mission photos. And they look different in real life. High quality Spacelab module would "fulfill" a lot of missions (unlike STS-44, where DSP was only launched once)...

True DSP had one Shuttle mission, but it would also make a great payload for Titan and Delta. At one point, ROSAT was to be deployed from Shuttle as well.

So MAybe update the ASE with bridge rails and satellites. STS 5 had no labels on the ASE

It seems the roof may need to be lowered and that make the science airlock taller

Thing that can be done is add supports for sides. Redo science airlock. Add CBSA.

STS_Payloads and the HD launch things seem to be missing textures.
NASA-2, Atlantis2, SHUTEX3.

I found them and can add them.

EVA may be an issue. The guy may appear in the tunnel. But the airlock hatch on top is not animated.

I assume that is just a cover over the airlock

Thanks. I will take a look. I think the sizes are off on the Spacelab. It looks as if the interior should be flat and not cone shaped? on the ends

Looks about right to me.

So thinking about the external airlock and spacelab. Right now we have the aft hatch open on the external airlock. But what about the top hatch? It looks like in the Spacelab to do an eva you would need to go thru the top hatch?

Back from vacation. We are working on a new zip for download. It will be on the first page. The first goal was to get the shuttle flying in 2016. That is done.

Next maybe going back to the missions and updating things. Things like updating the satellites and ASEs. Adding some pieces. Mainly eye candy. Any specific missions?
something i would find interesting is a Columbia STS-118 mission, which was Columbia's next mission after STS-107 and would've marked its 1st visit to the ISS, ive been playing around with scn files to see if i can try and make it myself but havent had much luck

Basically STS-118 (Columbia) is just the same as STS-118 (Endeavour) that eventually flew in 2007.

The SPACEHAB-SM, S5 Truss, and ESP-3 would be flown along with the actual crew assigned to Endeavour...the only difference is the Orbiter used itself and of course, the launch date (13 Nov 2003)

What issues?


Looking at SPACELAB and made some changes.

redoing the Intelsat6 satellite. Since looking at the other satellites. I realize the animation was wrong. THe solar Arry goes down. It will have the cut holes for rcs,.....

I think once it is done the new zip will be made. Then the fun begins redoing ASE,and clamps,...

Working on the satellites. Intelsat6 and the HS 376 ones. Both redid meshes so the rcs ports could be seen. holes in the solar array. It is the outer part that extends.

We are trying to get the masses and rcs thrust correct
