It could very well be a compiler bug. The compiler that ships with Dev-C++ is about 5-6 years out of date at this point. This is why the use of Dev-C++ is usually recommended against by people who write a lot of C and C++.

According to WolframAlpha, that's only about 3gs of acceleration on average. You'd still need to be pretty strong, though. Lots of squats. :P http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=speed+of+sound+%2F+11+seconds

Whereas in mine, it's closer to $800-$900K. Maybe more. Then again, this is in the 7th richest neighbourhood in Canada.

It's possible. I've done it once or twice. You need to control your angle of attack very carefully and precisely, and launch from just the right altitude and speed.

I'm getting crashes no matter what I do. It loads the scenario fine, displays the scene (apparently without flaw, from what I can tell), and then crashes with this following OGLA.txt log. I've tried playing around with compatibility settings and gotten nothing. I'm running Windows 7 on an...

Well, you CAN shut off an SRM, but in order to do so, you have to blow it up. So still testosterone-fuelled.

So much space. Need to see it all. Er, I mean, this would be a cool idea. Although, wouldn't copyright be an issue? SPAAAAAACE!

Some would disagree...

I've tried to run it in Orbiter 2010 P1, too, and I get a CTD upon going into the cockpit view. As long as I stay in the external view, everything is fine.

Spawn more overlords.

One thing that always struck me about pictures I've seen from LEO is how much light there is. Sure, the unattenuated sunlight illuminates everything a lot, but a good portion of the effect comes not from sunlight, but from light reflecting off the Earth itself. That's why, if you look at...

Maybe in the addon they're supposed to be the uprated RS-68As? The RS-68A is supposed to run at around 3.12MN, which isn't quite 3.3MN but it's closer. Or maybe they're RS-68Bs, which presumably are even more powerful?

Ah, I didn't know there was a patch for 2010 out, thanks.

Just installed from orbithangar. No CDT, but when the scenario loads none of the meshes show up and everything is on the equator. My log displays the following: **** Orbiter.log Build Jun 6 2010 [v.100606] Timer precision: 6.98413e-008 sec Found 0 joystick(s) Devices enumerated: 6 Devices...

I just downloaded it, and I'm getting the same problems others were having with the simulation loading okay but nothing showing up. My OS is Vista and I've got both the 2008 and 2010 versions of VC++ Express installed. I'm using Orbiter 2006P1.
