I don't know why the launch is slated to 2027 if the rocket and the ship are going to be ready this year. Oh, it involves one or two HLSes, and I hear almost zero updates from Blue Origin and SpaceX regarding this.

I have used NanaZip (a fork of 7-Zip) and it works. Thank you.

I get this error while trying to extract the files of antelope_scn.zip. I have pressed "Try Again", but the stubborn dialog box keeps coming back again. What to do?

I'm trying to land a Shuttle on Edwards Air Force Base, but the runway is too bumpy to land properly, unlike on SLF. How to flatten the terrain? I don't see the option on Video > Advanced.

I wonder whether Orbiter runs well on ARM devices or not, including both Windows and Mac. I'm asking this to the forum since Orbiter isn't listed in the otherwise community-maintained Software Compatibility List for Windows ARM, and the discussions on Mac support are mostly on Intel Macs...

Anyway, I have fixed the issue by running dxwebsetup.exe, and enabling "DX12Wrapper". And now I'm more than happy. Thank you everyone for help.

I have tried that configuration setting with D3D7Client. And it shows this thing below for some time before causing a silent CTD. Here's the log: **** Orbiter.log 000000.007: Build Dec 31 2024 [v.602931718] 000000.016: Timer precision: 1e-07 sec 000000.168: Found 0 joystick(s) 000009.060...

Yes, I have set the symbolic link to "High Performance" in my graphics settings, but still the GPU does not come under "3D device". Yes, I have installed the runtimes, but still it does not work. It's still a mystery how I enjoyed Orbiter 2016 a lot for five years (2018-2023) on an outdated...

Nothing. Blank. Seems like Windows 11 really sucks, and is not limited to Copilot. I jumped from a Windows 7 desktop to a Windows 11 gaming laptop mainly because my desktop was dated, and I needed a laptop for college. Now, the desktop does not have Windows 7 anymore (it runs Linux), and I'm...

I have NVIDIA RTX 3050 on my laptop, but I can't find any graphics card in the option.

Long time no see. Just installed Orbiter 2024 on Windows 11 25H2 with D3D9 runtime installed. But I see this issue when I switched to "D3D9Client" as my graphics engine. It still loads Orbiter without graphics.

I was away for a while due to academic pressures. Now, I am back with both Orbiter 2024 and KSP 1.12.5. I purchased KSP early this month, and learnt to fly ships very quickly. Today, I have performed my first docking with KSP.

I used to take long breaks from Orbiter and this forum due of the academic pressure. But as I have heard of Orbiter 2024, I have just installed it and tried to open both Orbiter.exe and Orbiter_ng.exe using my Windows 11 24H2 laptop. But none of the two opens. No logs appear, just a window...

I see the Indian media still portraying Crew-9 as a rescue mission, and the two astronauts onboard as rescuers: https://www.businesstoday.in/technology/news/story/sunita-williams-rescue-mission-begins-spacex-crew-9-successfully-launches-with-two-nasa-astronauts-447985-2024-09-29 By the way, I'm...

Although the tweets are quite old, I think Sergei Krikalev is one of the few cosmonauts who went to space as a Soviet citizen and then returned to Earth to get the Russian citizenship.

I think the Soviet Union was ahead of the US in this aspect. In fact, Gagarin never flew his own spacecraft.

Wait, didn't they scrap the Jacklyn landing ship bought from Stena Freighter?

At least the two astronauts are not alone. There are currently 9 people in the station, which will reduce to 7 people after the next SpaceX crew rotation. Also, more people are on Earth than in space, so we can make the most of our time while being stranded on Earth, similar to what Williams and...

I'm too late in this thread, but I see that three people of Indian origin have used New Shepard to go to space. A Pakistani citizen also flew to space using New Shepard, becoming the first Pakistani space traveller. Pardon me, but I don't understand how a Pakistani citizen can be rich enough to...

Are you running Orbiter.exe or Orbiter_ng.exe? Orbiter_ng.exe requires D3D9Client to run.
