    Advanced Question Tranquillity Base His Res

    I installed the moon hi res package for 2016 but I don't have enough detail to simulate the Apollo 11 landing. Would it be possible for me to create a higher res for the Tranquility area? Thanks

    AscentAP Scenario Parameters

    I haven't found the documentation for the scenario parameters for the ascentap for Atlantis. Any help would be appreciated. Also, the ascentap parameters in the 2016 Edition/Space Shuttle ascent autopilot scenario is missing a parameter. It should be: ASCENTAP 0 0 1 350000 1.5708 0.00000...

    orbit.medphys.ucl.ac.uk Working?

    "The server at orbit.medphys.ucl.ac.uk is taking too long to respond." I may have a DNS problem. Anyone else?

    Question Atlantis Landing Sound

    If I use Orbiter Sound on the stock Atlantis landing at KSC with the stock Final Approach scenario I get a nice satisfying wheel screech if I do a proper landing or a crash sound if not. If I try the stock Atlantis with the STS-125 Finals at Edwards scenario in the Antelope Valley Scenario...

    Question Loud Noise with SRTM

    I'm using the SRTM shuttle payload by "no matter" https://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3925 It works fine but if I change the scenario focus to point at the SRTM, I get a loud thunderclap like noise with echos on startup. Perhaps the attachment isn't complete until started?

    Advanced Question Orbiter Asyncronous Processes?

    I'm wondering how or if Orbiter implements asynchronous and maybe parallel processes. I ask because I have identical (I think) scenarios running a take off of a heavy aircraft implemented with Vinka's SC4 and using Arlav's UAP on different systems. On an AMD10 3,5GHz 12 GB, it pitches up at 80...

    Flight Question ISS Docking Is Too Realisic

    I have two joysticks emulating the RHC and THC on the stock space shuttle. Docking with the ISS works fine but it is too real. At the risk of going against the Orbiter Prime Directive, I'd like to make it less real. I'm thinking of using this with kids and decrease the difficulty and time to...

    Start Clients Paused?

    I'm thinking of setting up a parallel approach and land. Is it possible to connect the clients in paused mode? It would be nice if the "GO" could be issued from the server.

    Advanced Question Simulation Speed Increment?

    I'm looking for a quick (one button) way to speed up a simulation by a smaller factor than 10 ("T" key). Even better would be setting the speed from a scenario. Perhaps TimerMode in orbiter.cfg would help. What does it do? Thanks

    Question HSI Glide Slope for Stock Shuttle

    When running the Final Approach scenario with the shuttle Atlantis, the glide slope lights are correct but the HSI MFD glide slope is set for airplanes. I looked at the canaveral.cfg and Earth/Data folder but it isn't obvious that this is easily changed. Can anyone help? Thanks

    Advanced Question Small Earth Demo

    I am attempting to build an unrealistic demonstration of orbit alignment, sync and rendezvous. I have shrunk the earth while keeping the same mass. With videnie, I can get a nice animation showing complete orbits around the earth with an orbit time of about 60 seconds. Now, I'd like to show...

    Programming Question Stock Shuttle as Endeavour

    I want to use Orbiter for a display for the Endeavour. I have copied and renamed the stock Atlantis' config, modules, meshes and textures so that all of the demos and gauges refer to Endeavour. However, the external view still shows Atlantis. I think this is because the Atlantis.dll refers to...
