For those of you who have been waiting to see just how HUMONGOUS a space station you can build with the IMS 1.0 system in Orbiter 2010 P1, the waiting is almost over.
I have completed 222 construction missions to date and estimate that Phase 1 complete will occur somewhere around mission 275 to 280. In about a month, no matter where I am in the construction process, I plan on uploading some screen captures of the Lunar Station as-is along with the Scenario file.
Why upload the Scenario file?
I'm curious to see what sort of FPS folks get when they are approaching the Lunar Station in an XR5. I have discovered on my current system that the frame rate is around 11-18 FPS on approach with an XR5. I've also discovered that when I approach the Lunar Station in an XR2, the frame rate goes down around 1-2 seconds per frame. I suspect that the XR2 cockpit has a lot more detail in it than the XR5 cockpit. In any case, when I post the scenario file, there will be an unloaded XR5 sitting on pad 3 at Brighton Beach. This will give everyone the same starting point.
I hope that folks will post screen captures of their FPS on the scenario upload thread. I'll post a few example screen captures to get the ball rolling when I post the Scenario file.
So expect to see something on here from me around the last week of 2014.
