Thank you kuddel, I think that was the problem. I changed the OrbiterDir macro to a relative file path (..\..\..) and it fixed that error. Unfortunately a new error arose, in that it couldn't find several "meshres_XX.h" files. After a bit of searching, it looks like the "meshc.exe" program also...

Hello, I think I'm having a similar problem, but the above solutions didn't work. I am trying to compile the DeltaGlider source code in Visual Studio 2017, but I keep getting the following two errors: Error MSB6006 "cmd.exe" exited with code 255. DeltaGlider C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft...

Hello, I am currently studying the lemsystems.cpp file, and I came across the following two lines in the void LEM::SystemsInternalTimestep(double simdt) function (lines 1331 and 1332): double mintFactor = __max(simdt / 20.0, 0.02); double tFactor = __min(mintFactor, simdt); I'm not entirely...

I have a save file from just before MCC-3. Here is the MCC part of the scenario. MCC:ProjectApollo\MCC STATUS Landed Earth POS -95.0883333 29.5580556 HEADING 270.00 ALT 2.000 AROT -0.000 84.912 -60.442 AFCMODE 7 CSMNAME Columbia LVNAME AS-506-S4BSTG LEMNAME Eagle MCC_BEGIN...

I think perhaps there might have been an issue with my MCC-2 burn. I couldn't get through the steps in time, and I didn't know how to adjust the auto-ignition to a later time. After getting through the steps, I therefore pressed the SPS Direct switch and let it burn until the delta-V reached...

Hello, I'm doing an Apollo 11 mission, and I have just been informed that MCC-4 has been scrubbed. It then asks me to prepare for a data uplink by turning on the various UPLINK TLM buttons. I set all of that up, and press the "Ready for Uplink" button, but then, all it says is: "CSM state...

Ahh ok, that makes a lot more sense now. I think part of the problem is that I've been using a keyboard instead of a joystick, and I don't think that works very well with RATE CMD, so I wasn't able to work out what it did. Thanks!

Hello, I have been working through an Apollo 11 simulation, and I notice that one of the switches that I constantly need to press is the Manual Attitude switches. The problem is, I have no idea what they do! I've tried looking in AOH Vol 1, but it's very cryptic, and doesn't really help me...

Thank you for the clarification thewonderidiot! That's a shame about the book, so far I have been finding it quite accessible. I'll certainly take a look at the file you linked, although it might be a bit above my level, since my background is not computer science.

I am currently studying "The Apollo Guidance Computer: Architecture and Operation" by Frank O'Brien, and I'm having some trouble with the section on memory addressing. On page 61, under the heading "Fixed storage banking," it says the following: "One value has already been mentioned: a binary...

Wow, that's really cool. So, the SPS Evasive Maneuver checklist has the following section: SPS Evasive Attitude V49E V25E Load SPS PAD Burn Attitude CMC Mode - AUTO PRO PRO F 50 18 ENTER T-10:00 So, it looks like I need to start the attitude maneuver, wait for it to reach the correct...

Ok, the number is +61.3, so that probably explains it. Perhaps the SPS burn to avoid the S-IVB didn't go well? I think there might be a mistake in the DAP settings for that burn, the RCS rotates the spacecraft so slowly that I just can't keep up with the timings, and I always mess up the burn...

I've started Apollo 11 again from the beginning, and everything was going well until MCC-1. MCC progresses successfully from State 24 to State 25 Substate 2, but it doesn't seem to get any further, it just sits there. I therefore never find out whether MCC-1 is go or scrubbed. A few days ago I...

Ok, so just to clarify, I can safely ignore the (Decal) steps, and everything should still work? I'll keep an eye out for a jumpy needle.

Hello, I'm just wondering, what is meant on the MFD checklist when the item has (Decal) next to it? I'm connecting the LM to CSM power at the moment, and I've just been skipping the Decal steps, but then the Sys Test 4D gives me 0 volts. I guess this is supposed to be the CSM/LM umbilical...

Ahh, I know what happened. In the debug menu I remember pressing Inc state or Dec state or something. I thought it only displayed data, I didn't realise it would actually modify my state. I tried Dec State this time, and also Reset State, and I think it's working now. I'll let you know how it goes.
