How soon do you figure the texture wizards can apply the New Horizons imagery to the Pluto mesh? All the buzz around the project is pretty awesome (I think so anyway).

@Fred18
I don't know anything about NH_zinc02.dds. :blink:
What happens if you load BrianJ's flyby scenario only?
Hey fred18,
I know you are busy but while you are here, I wanted to say that I enjoy using: http://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=31886 with the New Horizons mission.
Have you thought about putting some of the hard-coded configuration settings as user-specified? I want to try to trim down the network a bit. At 30AU, I have no need for TDRS, for example.

Did you use TransX or IMFD?
Jupiter flyby(March 1 2007)
Pluto encounter(August 26 2015)
I released a Global Level 8 Pluto map ( Pluto Level 8 global map ) .
Yet Pluto, as defined on "Pluto and Moons" by piper is not presenting the correct side during approach (or in relation to Charon).
I guess that could be fixed on pluto.cfg, [...]
When NASA releases a Charon map, expect a similar update!
cristiapi, I'll not add fictional details.
The idea is just to have the NASA map on a format we can all use.
I usually add a neutral color to the areas not imaged, since that looks nicer in Orbiter.
NASA will eventually update the map to cover the missing parts, so... let's wait!
Great that it works with your CeBoMo addon.
I haven't tried it because it looks too complex for my needs
So can I add that the map is compatible with CeBoMo on the description ? :yes:
Could you share your pluto.cfg so that I could try to tweak "Pluto and Moons" ?
Due to the limitations of putting elements into Orbiter, there is an issue with the orbital period for Nix and Hydra. In real-life, the two moons orbit the combined mass of Pluto+Charon, however in Orbiter they can only orbit around the mass of Pluto, and their orbital period is calculated as such. Because of this, the orbit slower then they would in real-life, so while the shape of their orbits are correct, their positions are not.
