Hi there,
How many of you are still using Orbiter 2006? -
Example reason being, a favourite add-on or spacecraft isn't compatible with 2010 and/or no longer supported?

I still have it, but don't use it as often (for obvious reasons).

I started this set of missions here... [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3085"]Mir-2 (pr.1993) V.1.1[/ame] and couldn't get everything to "work" in Orbiter '10. I'm getting back into the swing and will eventually finish station building.

I have all my files and configurations. But I don't use it.

Somewhere, but not here.
I use it occasionally. It would usually be to go back and review my old VSA scenarios.

Nostalgia sometimes grabs a hold of me too due to the fact that it was the Orbiter version that I got started on.

Now I use only 2010 but I think that many people still use 2006 because it's the version I could call "The Rise of Orbiter".

"Orbiter 2006: The Rise of Probe" :lol:

Can't you smell my T levels?
I wonder this too, because I always consider dropping Orbiter 2006 support in Launch MFD, but on each MFD release I notice that the 2006 version makes 10% of downloads of the 2010 version and it never drops below that, so I'll keep it as it is.

That could be the case, but many newbies to orbiter may not know the difference. Ive found that creating a good Orbiter set-up is a piece of work in itself.
