New charred hull textures and upper stage engine detail by @francisdrake Some small fixes for functional compatibility with OpenOrbiter2024

My guess is that its a combination of using oapiBlt(...) to swap vessel skin textures, and OpenOrbiter2024 generating texture mipmaps for vessel textures: oapiBlt(...) only swaps the main texture, not the mipmaps. So from a distance you get the originals mipmaps, up close you get the new...

Update 250122 Fixed some stuff so it works in OpenOrbiter2024. Cheers, Brian

Small bug fixes for compatibility with OpenOrbiter2024 (as far as possible).

Same here. Thanks!

Seconded. Its a fine looking launcher, too. Nice colour scheme and logo. By all means, if they can follow my "digital spaghetti" mess of code. Might be better to extract just the "DoBoostback(...)" section of code which requires a target name and gives you your required flight vector (minimum...

Thanks for the report. I tracked it down to un-initialized DEVMESHHANDLE value - if your system decides it is 0 at sim start you're OK - if not then CTD. I'm surprised it didn't bite me til now. I fixed the booster auto-pilot problem. The custom texture problem remains in Orbiter2024, but can be...

Hi, I'm getting a CTD using OpenOrbiter2024 D3D9 GC on any saved scenario post-booster separation. Works OK using OpenOrbiter2024 D3D7 default graphics. Anyone else seeing this? Thanks, Brian

Hi, OpenOrbiter2024 working well on my old PC, integrated graphics chip, Windows8.1 For me, OrbiterSound5.0 seems to work OK with OpenOrbiter2024 D3D9 Graphics Client - but causes immediate CTD with default D3D7 graphics. My mouse scroll wheel stops working sometimes with OpenOrbiter2024 D3D9...

Hi Jacques, so OrbiterSound5.0 works OK with OpenOrbiter2024 D3D9 Graphics Client - but gives me immediate CTD with OpenOrbiter2024 Default Graphics. (I was using OrbiterSound4.0 before) No, I do not have the "ting" when the mouse wheel stops responding. Cheers, Brian

Hi, finally had time to try out OpenOrbiter2024 - works fine for me on ancient PC, Windows8.1 - except my mouse scroll wheel gets lost sometimes (can't change view point/zoom). But certainly some issues with Falcon9 and FalconHeavy add-ons + OpenOrbiter2024..... 1. Default Graphics & D3D9...

I wasn't even aware of this launch until a couple of days ago. From Spaceflight Now: https://fireflyspace.com/blue-ghost/ https://hakuto.r.ispace-inc.com/hakuto-r/eng/about/ Cheers, BrianJ

Thanks. Its coming along OK (y) :LOL: I wish. Easier and cheaper! Anyway, I must try out the Orbiter 2024 soon and report back. Cheers, Brian

Hi, I don't know - haven't even had time to settle down and try Orbiter 2024 yet. I'm focused on trying to rebuild my kitchen and bathroom. Been at it since before Christmas! Cheers, Brian

Thanks for the clarifications (y) The different time coordinates always confuse me (not difficult, I know). I realised that my thinking on the orbital velocity/flyby distance/time coincidence was too simplistic. And its just comparing different mathematical models, of course. Anyhow, thanks...

Great! Thanks for testing (y) That one works OK for me. Did you remember to switch on the BC_TOWER catch function ? If "Yes" - did you add any additional vessels to the scenario? Mea Culpa! Again. I should put a note on my screen (Use Alt NOT Shift!) :rolleyes: Noted. Cheers, Brian

Patch 241217 (for version 240805) Just a few tweaks after watching the test flight footage: New .cfg file option for ascent autopilot orientation: ORIENTATION = 0,1,2,3 (0 = Heads-up, 1 = Roll+90, 2 = Heads-Down, 3 = Roll-90) So, for roll to Starboard, which is how it seems to go, use...

Hi, patch 240605 is only valid for version 220923. Re-install version 220923: https://www.orbiter-forum.com/resources/spacex-starship-wip.126/version/5484/download then install the patch 240605. If you still have a problem, post your orbiter.log. Cheers, BrianJ

Hi Luis, I'm doing OK, thanks :-) (but very busy with some home maintenance!) Great video! (y) Those are some cool tracking shots - you must be using a powerful Orbiter-zoom-lens !? I think I misunderstood your request - if you do not want the Hot Stage Ring, only install version 220923 (link...

Hi, if you install this version 220923: https://www.orbiter-forum.com/resources/spacex-starship-wip.126/version/5484/download ...and then install this patch... https://www.orbiter-forum.com/attachments/starship_patch_240605-zip.38604/ I think it will have the HSR jettison... Cheers, BrianJ
