    My purchase came with a disc and an activation key code. You don't buy the latest versions of Windows directly from Microsoft, you get them from a third-party distributor like an electronics store (real life or online). On PCPartPicker.com, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit is listed as only being...

    I was going to get an i5-4460 at first because it was the cheapest i5 listed on PCPartPicker, but I saw recommendations for i5-6500 (because it was the newer and better counterpart, "slightly more expensive" than the 4460). And as you've shown, I'd have to get a more expensive motherboard in...

    I'm about to have my first PC build very soon - I got an i5-6500 and a R9 380 but I'll return the latter and live with integrated graphics for another month until the RX 480 comes out.

    Okay, finally making some progress after shipping my computer cross-country from college: (exhaust is a modified version of default textures. There are also RCS blocks in the second stage mesh)

    Just a warning: the show doesn't get as far along the overall storyline as the (currently on-going) manga that it's based on. It was put on hiatus to let the manga "catch up," but now the manga is apparently much further ahead. (I hope it will return, because I would rather wait to experience it...

    Well, it's next decade, if the Constellation program wasn't cancelled. There are silly moments but there are also very dramatic and emotional moments.

    You were right about the full expendable capability being about 22 tonnes to LEO.

    Project M-III launch vehicle

    I recently got the leg animations to work, and I also moved all the decals to the interstage as you probably wouldn't see them on the tanks if it was launching in real life (same reason for the M-II). Also, the texture will still be frostless like the M-II add-on.

    I think I might put a "frosted-over" effect this time for the sake of realism. ---------- Post added at 07:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ---------- or should I just forego that depiction just like what I did with the M-II - this is especially the case for landing, the stage...

    Wait, does F/s mean frames per second? What are your processor and graphics card?

    News ULA and Bigelow Announce Partnership

    It's also because Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy seem to offer only one fairing size, and B330 won't fit in that. With the fairing being relatively small compared to the Falcon Heavy's payload capacity, it appears that SpaceX plans to use Falcon Heavy mainly for large communications satellites with...
