I am modelling a vessel in Blender. This vessel will have an airlock and I intend to animate the airlock doors (translation fore and aft) and use Vinka's Spacecraft when I have transferred the model to Orbiter (using Blake's tools). How do I setup and name the animation mesh groups to correctly...

Has anyone tried to model the current Orion Crew seat?

I recently ran into a situation that puzzled me. When working in sRGB colors are expressed in three characters such as 0,0,255. I ran into a four character description such as 0,0,0,255. I didn't recognize this. Is this a CMYK description? Could someone please educate me on this one. Thanks in...

This is a question that has bugged me for awhile: Does Orbiter have a method for assigning VOR frequencies? Or does the base developer just set his/her own? Do we just use VOR frequencies and not Loran or eLoran for longer distance beacons?

Has anyone tried or considered using a Chat app to provide some measure of communication interactivity in the sim?

For those of you who are already using Visual Studio 2022, it comes with C++ 14 compiler already available. You can change this to C++ 17 or C++ 20. Which version do you generally use?

Okay, I have just redownloaded and reinstalled VC 2022 Community Edition along with the Desktop Development with C++. I intend this for two purposes: to relearn addon development and to build OpenOrbiter. Zo, I really need a step-by-step guide in setting up both to ensure that my setup is...

I thought I remembered a posting where someone was looking for a working link to "Go Play In Space". Did they find what they were after or still need a copy?

Good day, folks. I'm looking for a mapping tool where I can plug in the Surface and/or Elevation tiles of Mars and visually see where they are. Any ideas?

Here is an odd one. I set up a mission to go from Mars to Ceres using the Frelon. I initially set time for today, and launch the mission. After doing what set up I need to do using IMFD and TransX2, I let the mission run in real time in the background. If I get lazy or take a nap, I will often...

When I want to change the "Now" date in the scenario editor, it enters the date in UTC. I have to manually change it to EST. How do I change the configuration of the scenario editor to use EST?

Can anyone advise on how to obtain MOLA data to build an accurate Mars surface? In particular, I'm interested in the Erebus Montes area but it is the general extraction of height data that I want to discuss?

I want to check out OpenOrbiter but can't seem to find the current download location for it. Can someone point the way for me please?

I know we have discussed this before. After a harddrive failure, I reinstalled a completely new Orbiter. On attempting to start orbiter-ng, there is no video tab showing in Launchpad. If I try to start any scenario, Orbiter just drops out. Orbiter log shows nothing. Reinstalled vcredist_x64.exe...
