    YES! I forgot the textures for my Orbiter Beta installation are drawn from another Orbiter setup (to save harddrive space) Thank you! It is working now - BEAUTIFUL!

    Surface Base Apollo Landing Site Sceneries for Orbiter 2016

    Thanks @kuddel ! I checked and it is set to "Cache & Archive". Fired up Orbiter again but still no Taurus Littrow hi-res elevation to avail. I don't get it. The other landing sites show the hi-res terrain (same orbiter installation). :unsure: EDIT ohhh... the textures are drawn from another...

    Surface Base Apollo Landing Site Sceneries for Orbiter 2016

    @ggalfi this looks really spectacular. Thanks for all your efforts in creating this. I seem to have a problem, although I correctly unzipped the elevation files into my orbiter main folder, the hi-resolution elevation surface just won't show up in Orbiter. Do you have any idea? Thank you! Happy...

    Problem Cannot launch AMSO LM from the Moon

    Either the CSM is out of plane (ground track is too far away from your location) or the CSM apolune/perilune is outside altitude constraints.

    ggalfi , how are you doing? Is there any news for a possible Apollo 17 landing site elevation map now that the 50th anniversary is here? :)

    Surface Base Apollo Landing Site Sceneries for Orbiter 2016

    Just a sidenote for this nice add-on. In order to land at the historically accurate position on the lunar surface, make sure your (AMSO) bases (Tranquility, Frau Mauro,...) have the correct LAT/LON in their config files! The meshes appear to be placed very precisely at their correct location...

    ggalfi, so I installed everything into a new Orbiter Beta and I absolutely love your terrain works! Now John and Charlie are loading up the LRV for their first trip at the Highlands of Descartes! :) I am very much looking forward to the Taurus-Littrow elevation textures, I hope you will do...

    Surface Base Apollo Landing Site Sceneries for Orbiter 2016

    Excellent work ggalfi! I just tried it and for some reason, my terrain seems to be enlarged on the z-axis (vertically) by a factor of maybe two or three? Not sure what I did wrong, just installed the files as mentioned in the doc. Here's some screenshots, the elevation of the surrounding look...

    OHM Better ISS

    Very nicely done add-on! Does this ISS have any exterior lights that can be activated so we can see the station like during nighttime EVA's? And is there an EVA astronaut with headlights available?

    Question Jarmonik's micro texture - question

    Hello all, I'd like to use Jarmonik's nice micro texture addon in orbiter 2016 with the D3D9 client, however only for the highest resolution level on the moon, namely the D3D9Moon_A and/or with D3D9MoonB textures without the other ones ( D3D9Moon_C and D3D9Moon_C2 ) so that I have only a micro...

    New Release D3D9Client Development

    Hi jarmonik! Just wanted to say the Earth and Moon now looks amazing with your graphics client. I love the vessel self-shadowing and reflective surfaces and the shadow of the LM on the lunar surface during approach...gorgeous! I did a new global moon texture without shadows so that these are...
