    That was it. LaunchMFD now runs on 2010 and 2016. Thank you! :cheers:

    General Question LaunchMFD Failing to Load in Orbiter '10 and '16

    Thank you for the replies. :thumbup: As for service packs for the VC++ I downloaded and installed the latest versions for VS 2015, 2017, and 2019. Would I still need to install separate service packs for these? Also, I learned that the latest VC++ versions have their own distinct runtime...

    General Question LaunchMFD Failing to Load in Orbiter '10 and '16

    In my ongoing quest in reuniting with Orbiter... Have both Orbiter 2010 (100830) and 2016 (160828) installed. Launch MFD does not show up in the MFD menu when [SEL] is pressed, in either 2010 or 2016. [SEL] is pressed multiple times to cycle through the complete list. Both of the latest...

    Advanced Question Troubles with Carl Sagan Space Center

    No, it's orbiter 2010. Sorry, should have pointed that out already. CSSC fares much worse in 2016 as there are a host of apparent incompatibilities when you see it there. That's probably a dead end unless started from scratch. I only reinstalled 2010 just so I can use some addons that don't...

    Problem CPU reboot at Load screen Orbiter16

    Absolutely agree. Was having a similar issue a few months ago where anything that asked more of the GPU (graphics intensive games, etc) resulted in a system reboot. Also noticed later that a red LED on the motherboard indicating a memory issue was on when the computer was turned off. Turns...

    Advanced Question Troubles with Carl Sagan Space Center

    Recently reinstalled and getting familiarized with things. Installed CSSC, it shows up in the sim except there is no crane, no locomotive, no radar, and both launchpads are bare, lacking a tower and adapter. However, all of these objects are listed in the Scenario Editor. The DG, shuttle...

    General Question Returning After a Long Absence

    Returning after a long, long time away from Orbiter. Last used Orbiter 2010. Just installed 2016 today for the first time with D3D9 Client and XR sounds. Downloading the HD textures as I type this. Ran the 2016 "welcome" demo and it looks very nice and smooth with every visual setting maxed...

    News Add-ons working in Orbiter 2016

    That has increasingly become contemporary online behavior recently. If certain individuals don't get exactly what they want and precisely when they want it, while contributing nothing in return, they will immediately lambaste whoever they deem responsible. You often see this sort of thing in...

    General Question DGIV on Orbiter2016?

    Just did a manual install of Dan's DGIV into Orbiter 2016 and it seems to run just fine. I like to use it in "hard-core" mode with the smallest fuel and oxygen reserves, and using the MkI 50 KN engine. Thing is, I used Kulch's HCLV-4 Hyperion Sidemount to get it into orbit Space Shuttle style...

    C-130 Hercules still going strong

    Years ago I used to fly as radio/nav in Coast Guard HC-130s out of Sacramento. 1600 and 1700 series (I don't remember the exact numbers of each aircraft). A few years ago one of the 1700s I used to crew was lost in an accident, a mid-air with a Marine helicopter. Good airplane, though we...

    Updates SpaceX Falcon 9 F5 CRS SpX-2 through CRS SpX-12 Updates

    Wonder what they'll stencil on the pad next time: "Look, just RTFM, okay!? It's not hard."

    Updates SpaceX Falcon 9 F5 CRS SpX-2 through CRS SpX-12 Updates

    The fact that the stage even made it to the barge is an accomplishment in itself. It's only a matter of time before it lands successfully. First still shot of the stage approaching the barge on Livestream, before impact...

    Updates SpaceX Falcon 9 F5 CRS SpX-2 through CRS SpX-12 Updates

    Lol, it wasn't personal, that's basically how you sounded. If that made you upset then perhaps you should look inward... Besides, if you make the claim that they backed off for no good reason, you're the one that has to show directly supporting evidence of that, not the other way around. It's...

    Updates SpaceX Falcon 9 F5 CRS SpX-2 through CRS SpX-12 Updates

    Certainly, that's an extremely easy assumption to make: "Bah, it's just normal Florida weather! That was just a little booger on the radar. They're pussies for not launching!" :lol:

    A Sense of Accomplishment

    A combination of BaseSyncMFD, AeroBrakeMFD, and the Deltaglider's PRO104SPEC40 reentry program (a reentry autopilot where you are allowed some limited control over pitch and bank if desired). And tons of reentry practice before the mission. Tons... Initially during practice, nailing the...
