    Hello Venus

    My first venture inward from Earth got me a spectacular sunrise at Venus. Ok...I embelished a bit in photoshop. TransX works quite well in reverse (inward towards sun). For some crazy reason I thought the burn would need to be retrograde so that the planet sort of dropped me off. I'm...

    Problem UV Mapper Leaves Behind One Facet

    When I select an object by group in UV Mapper and then move it, a facet is left behind on almost every object that I try to move. I can enlarge overlapping items and try to go in and pick out what I need. Problem is, UV Mapper does not appear to allow me to add to a vertex selection. I've got...

    Question Bad Time 4 Noob to Add-On?

    Greetings Fellow Space Primates! Some questions before committing: 1. Due to the 2009 beta, would this be a bad time for an add-on noob to dive into creating a spaceship add-on? 2. Should I use the 2006 SDK or the most current beta SDK? 3. If I go beta, how would I know if I was screwing...

    Tutorial TransX: Earth To Mars Checklist Updated

    Greetings Fellow Space Primates! I have updated my checklist for getting from Earth to Mars with TransX. I have now added steps for a much more accurate insertion at encounter. Perhaps a bit behind the curve since there are several excellent video tutorials out there and the new Orbiter...

    Tutorial Cape Canaveral to ISS Checklist

    Greetings Fellow Space Primates! :) Maybe the world didn't truly need yet another tutorial on docking for beginners... But I made one anyway. ;) Lots of hand-holding early on but the pace is quickened as it progresses. Tutorial uses standard DG with no add-ons and is aimed at the rawest...

    Waxing Thankful

    During lunar training with DeepStar 2.0, I made a not-so-good ascent with Lander 2. Rather than try to hog DeepStar itself into a rendezvous, I dispatched a DG (docked to DS2's nose & brought along for just such an occasion) to retrieve the lander. As I approached the wayward lander I switched...

    Alien Obelisk On The Moon? Or Other Hidden Surprises?

    Greetings Fellow Space Primates! This will sound a bit crazy but has anybody ever seen anything in orbiter and wasn't sure what it was? I know the code is accessible and scene files should list everything that is in a scene. But, then again, it is programming and maybe someone hid some...

    Missing a Step In Earth to Moon Xfer?

    Greetings Fellow Space Primates! What the heck am I leaving out? Delta glider from earth to moon. Set up my burn in transfer mfd. All looks good but when I hit the gas for TLI the dashed orbit from the HTO expands out into the cosmos instead of the actual orbit displaying in the transfer...

    Buck Rogers Retro 3-Ship Pack?

    Greetings Fellow Space Primates! A long time ago in this galaxy I downloaded a pack of three ships for Orbiter that looked very similar to these. I no longer have these ships. Have searched and searched but can not find them for Download. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Or if...

    Question MFD colors - Yellow/Green Indistinguishable?

    Greetings Fellow Space Primates! Am getting back into orbiter after a long time away. My apologies if this has been discussed previously. My searches on this and other forums came up negative. But I'm horrible with those search engines. :blink: My problems is the green and yellow text...
