    Coming Back to Orbiter After Long Break

    That's good to hear! Are there elevations for other worlds as well like that can be added via mods?

    Coming Back to Orbiter After Long Break

    I saw Dan Steph's stuff still hasn't been updated. But did see the videos showing the development progress, but those vids were from last year. Hopefully it gets updated "soon." I really love the Arrow freighter

    Coming Back to Orbiter After Long Break

    Hi all! I used to play Orbiter 2010 a lot from 2012-2016. It pretty much taught me everything I know about spaceflight. I remember near the end I went crazy with mods and my install became so bloated. It got to the point where I’d spend hours trying to make a scenario or mod a mod to make it...

    Request Any SLS and Orion MPCV in development?

    Nice addon! The only problem I've run into is whenever I separate the SLS Core stage with the Orion MPCV attached orbiter CTDs. When I check the logs there seems to be nothing wrong, no missing meshes or textures. I've disabled things like StateSaver and other things that don't agree with...

    Problem TransX Crashes When Making Ejection Plan

    I recently downloaded the TransX 2014.04.26 ModuleMessaging addon and every time I start an ejection plan Orbiter crashes. The crashes only happen while I'm making an ejection plan. I made sure the TransX2 and TransX modules were active and I downloaded the latest version of the Messaging...

    Challenge Prelude III Ariel to Miranda

    Glad to see I started a good challenge idea. Coping without the autopilot was pretty difficult, but I was able to do it, but now I need to try it with the expert settings.

    General Question Ariel to Miranda Autopilot Reference

    I was using the DGIV, but then I switched to the XR2. I was able to land though. I deorbited close to the base and did some low gravity surface flight with the descent hold when I got to about 1.200 km. Because of the low gravity I barely burned up any fuel with the hover thrusters.

    General Question Ariel to Miranda Autopilot Reference

    Yeah, I think I'll just autoland when im near the base. The only problem is aligning with the landing area and keeping the ship at Normal + or - while firing the thrusters because just the slightest stray will mess up the orbit. Anyways I love the addon especially the terrain meshes.

    General Question Ariel to Miranda Autopilot Reference

    So after downloading the Prelude III bases I decided that I would attempt a moon to moon transfer. I wanted to get some practice going to, getting captured by, and orbiting low gravity objects. I'm in orbit around Miranda now and I think Miranda's close orbit to Uranus is messing up my...

    Hi

    Hello, I've been reading this forum for awhile now and decided I should make an account. I've been playing Orbiter for a few months now and I've learned most of the basics, but I figured this would be a good place to learn more.
