OHM FalconHeavy for Orbiter2016

[gattispilot]

I loaded the latest version ( 220707 ) and the patch.

Not sure what file this goes in?

LargeFairing = 1


I get a CTD on restart.

I get a CTD on restart.

In your scenario, change the line in the FalconHeavy vessel entry to:

FAIRS 0 0.0000 0 0

From your scenario, the .cfg file for your FalconHeavy is
Config/Vessels/FalconHeavy/f9h.cfg
Add the line

LargeFairing = 1

Not sure why you get a CTD on saved scenario - try without your payload.

Cheers,
Brian

 

[gattispilot]

thanks. I get the fairing.

Looks like I got the Shuttle launching pad there. I must have that pad loaded in the sol.cfg?

Install LC39A SpaceX - follow the installation notes and scenario CONTEXT line.

 

[francisdrake]

Now we got a proper fairing! Not for a fancy roadster, but for a real mans' truck!

I think I have seen this before. I am sure user error
But here when the Falcon launched the launchpad moves
I reinstalled:

FalconHeavy for Orbiter2016 220707 and the patch for fairing​

On launch the whole assembly moves

I don't know why that would happen!
Do you have anything like "Attachment Manager" MFD enabled?
Which Orbiter version are you using?
Post orbiter.log if possible.

 

[gattispilot]

Thanks. Yes attachment manager was active. I will deactivate and try

 

[BrianJ]

Update v.230920

New .cfg file options for:
Large 22m fairing
Upper stage grey insulation
Recoverable fairings (Fairings now "passive" by default)


Scenarios updated
Red-heat glow on upper stage engine

Cheers,
BrianJ

 

[gattispilot]

Thanks. Worked for me

OTV-7

For @barrygolden and anyone else - a package with X-37B Service Module and launch scenario for OTV-7 mission on FalconHeavy.
otv7_231206.zip attached below.

Launch scenario starts 12:00:00 UTC 10 Dec 2023, FH autopilot set for 28.6 deg.inc., 200km orbit, boosters flyback to LZ.

No info about target orbit or Service Module data (Service Module is my best guess, passive payload).
Issues:- Liber's nice X-37B model is a little too large for my fairings, spacecraft3.dll has a problem with payload jettison.

Infos in Doc/OTV7/ folder, launch scenario in Scenarios/OTV7 folder...

[francisdrake]

Thanks for the early-morning launch scenario package!

 

[barrygolden]

Hey there FH looks and works super but no OTV on my FH

 

[BrianJ]

Hi Barry,
make sure you have all the add-on requirements listed above.
Also, if using D3D9 Graphics Client, make sure you have done the "Create Symbolic Links" thing on the video tab.
Cheers,
Brian

I think you need to download and install the Boeing X-37B.

 

[BrianJ]

A bit more launch info from SFN and NSF....
10 minute launch window starts 01:14:00 UTC, 11 Dec
+48.25 deg. inclination parking orbit, 185km

 

[barrygolden]

still no joy no OTV

 

[francisdrake]

still no joy no OTV

If it runs, but does not show the OTV, then maybe VinkaSpacecraft4Pack is missing.
Install the spacecraft pack before installing the OTV.

 

[BrianJ]

still no joy no OTV

I'm baffled!
I can see a "mesh file name not provided" error in your orbiter.log, which would imply that Orbiter isn't reading the mesh file line in the OTV7.ini - not sure why that would happen.
If you have all the required add-ons, it "should" work.
I dunno. Sorry!
