Probably the best and most interesting cancelled Gemini variant is the Gemini Lunar Rescue. It would rescue the Apollo crews if they were stranded on the lunar surface or in lunar orbit. More info: http://www.astronautix.com/craft/gemcraft.htm IMHO, it really is worthy enough to make an add-on...

You know you're addicted to Orbiter when... Your car looks like this: :rofl::rofl:

This is the Apollo 15 Soundpack for use with AMSO. This soundpack covers all of the major events of the historic flight from launch to splashdown. I also added post-recovery audio as a batch file that covers Dave Scott's remarks aboard the USS Okinawa. NOTE: Al Worden's transearth EVA is...

I searched Apollo 18, 19, and 20 on Astronautix and came up with these dates (month and year): Apollo 18 - July 1973 Apollo 19 - December 1973 Apollo 20 - July 1974

I just created this thread because the RSS was not registering it somehow. Apollo 8 Soundpack (AMSO) PS: This is my first add-on! Have fun! :speakcool: ---------- Post added at 05:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:47 PM ---------- UPDATE: I now added more audio covering the re-entry...

Very very nice Saturn V! AMAZING! :speakcool: I salute you for all the work you've done! :salute: How about the Mercury recovery sequence? Will there be a new carrier and will the helicopter be compatible with the capsule?

This is the AMSO EVA Soundpack. It has 3 sound files from three spacewalks of the Apollo program: Apollo 9, Apollo 15, and Apollo 17. The batch files allow you to alternate the EVA audio from one mission to another, which adds more realism. Unzip into your Orbiter installation.

This is the Apollo 8 Soundpack for use with AMSO. It covers major events of the historic flight from the launch to recovery operations. All times and audio were based on (see links in readme): The Project Apollo Archive Honeysuckle Creek Apollo by the Numbers: A Statistical Reference...

I completely understand you Saturn V. Alain and Luis already have done an incredible job with AMSO. IMHO, AMSO already is the best add-on in Orbiter! I have indeed received a PM from ACSoft telling me that the next release of AMSO will not come until a new version of Orbiter is released. Also...

The one thing we really need to improve is the recovery sequence in Mercury. It is a let down to complete a successful mission only to be disappointed by the "buggy and bland" recovery. Saturn V already made a couple of better aircraft carriers. Follow the thread here...

You know you're addicted to Orbiter when: NASA accepts your candidacy as an astronaut because you had "spaceflight experience". You change the exhaust pipe of your car to a bell nozzle. You add a HUD to your car. As you are walking to the park, you cross the street thinking that you adjusted...

If you're not really into interplanetary flights, I really recommend Lunar Transfer MFD for Earth-Moon flights. It is much more accurate than IMFD, VERY VERY easy, and has a TLI, LOI, and TEI autopilot.

My playlist: Launch: Guns N' Roses- Paradise City (EPIC) :P Earth orbit: Bach- Air on a G String Earth Song- Micromegas II Earth Song- Outer Limits David Bowie- Space Oddity (nice chill-out song) Voyage to the Planets OST Reentry: Armageddon OST- Long Distance Goodbye (nice to hear when...

I recently found out that the only way to fix the bug is to exit Orbiter and reload the scenario.

Once again, BRAVO! :thumbup: Beautiful and accurate astronaut! Now all we need is an AMU, a tether, and a UMMU-like interface (oxygen, HUD, etc.), and we can have a realistic Gemini EVA.

I have tried Lunar Transfer MFD with AMSO. It is very very easy to use and much more accurate than IMFD. I finally did a perfect Apollo 8 flight (by the numbers) with that MFD and a little help from NukeET's tutorial found here http://orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3491. It was so accurate that...

Saturn V, here are the meshes and the sounds. Enjoy! :speakcool:

Ever heard of Buzz Aldrin's latest rap? :P: Get it from iTunes! Proceeds go to charity!

A very suspenseful, dramatic, and heart-warming story on how Apollo 11 was so important to the world. Borrowed a copy from my library.
