    General Question No correct shading for terrain?

    I've just started using Orbiter 2016 with the hires planetary textures and I have to say I am a bit disappointed that the surface of bodies such as the Moon and Mars are not shaded correctly. I thought the whole point of having elevation data was to shade the surfaces realistically. Maybe I...

    General Question Starting with Orbiter 2016. What now?

    I have finally downloaded Orbiter 2016 and I have forgotten which basic improvements I downloaded for 2010. There were things like Spacecraft 2 or 3, sound upgrades and various others. Can anyone point me to info about the best things to get straight away for 2016? Thanks for any help.

    Problem RCS thrusters stuck on

    No. I am not doing anything different to what I was doing when it worked perfectly. Actually, it might be something to do with that. I will investigate.

    Problem RCS thrusters stuck on

    The RCS thrusters on any ship that I use keep getting stuck on (usually UP rotation). I can turn off the RCS and kill the rotation with the scenario editor, but as soon as I turn on the RCS, the thrusters come on. Any ideas? (Orbiter 2010, Windows XP)

    Problem New system - surface gravity much stronger

    Problem solved. It was nothing to do with the system and its planets and everything to do with the scenario file. For some unearthly (;)) reason the scenario file had given my Shuttle-A a PAYLOAD MASS = 120000. There is a rational explanation for everything. Oops. :blush:

    Problem New system - surface gravity much stronger

    I have made my own fictional solar system and I was pretty proud of it until I tried to take off in a Shuttle-A from my Earth-like planet. I couldn't. The surface gravity was 1.7 MN! This on a planet that is very similar in size and mass to the Earth. Strange. So, I made another planet very...

    OHM Cardassian Keldon Pack

    A beautiful model. Very nice. I have found a problem, though. The docking port is a long way outside the ship.

    OHM Cardassian Hutet Class Starship

    Nice model indeed, but I cannot see anything. The interior vantage point seems to be inside the ship.

    General Question Adding attachment points to UCGO Shuttle-A

    I've done it using the Spotlight 2 keys. In order to use the UCGO Shuttle-A with a spotlight I have to cut-and-paste part of the scenario file into another scenario.

    General Question Adding attachment points to UCGO Shuttle-A

    This addon: Attachment tells me that the attachment point does not exist. It says that only the ummu point exists, but no others.

    General Question Adding attachment points to UCGO Shuttle-A

    Sorry, I should have written that, according to the "attachment" addon by tl8, the attachment point does not exist at all.
