    Astrophoto thread (your own photos please)

    Thanks, that's what I thought when I looked through the eyepiece. Easiest object to find in the sky, but strangely I rarely observe it. Its a single shot. I accidently used a lite version of a camera app I downloaded, so this is just a 480x640 image. I'll try to buy and use that app for some...

    I guess 0 servers found means I really have to wait for the update to complete. Sorry that I can't be an easy target for you today :lol:.

    Humor [No-one's caring?] 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics Games

    Uhmm... just arrived here... (I think I prefer the Lock On/DCS version) Beautiful landscape down there, that's my reason to (maybe) watch it. Besides that, I like everything that looks easy or involves flying :P. Bobsled for example. I mean it's just like driving on rails. How hard can that...

    :salute: Meanwhile, today's C208 tour with FSX+FS Economy. Look at the logo in the top left.

    :facepalm: http://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/wiki.php?id=163323 Glad they made it out alive almost uninjured... I was in the area a few days ago. Some nice action there, with all the other bases in the area... I saw F-16s and some other stuff, too bad the A-10 is gone... Here, some big ones...

    Orbiter Screenshot Thread

    True. Only the edges of the copied part are fine, they are very smooth. I'm quite happy with the results. Will make the approach to my base much more interesting. (The building with the longest shadow is as large as an Arrow, and used to assemble and launch them vertically). (click image to...

    Orbiter Screenshot Thread

    Will there be a working surface tile system, for both textures and heightmaps? My base is built in a quite hilly are, so it would be doomed if I can't flatten the area. _________________________________________ So I decided to rebuild and match my bases' tiles for the BMNG January textures. I...

    New Release D3D9Client Development

    Wow, really looking forward to this. :thumbup: _________________________________________________ I finally downloaded the huge Direct X SDK and compiled the latest D3D9 code (29936). It looks like any version works without the black flickering, but only if compiled in Debug mode.

    New Release D3D9Client Development

    I did some testing with this old fix in R12, only using it "partially". This works: void LocalVertexLight(out float4 diff, out float4 spec, out float4 dir, in float3 nrmW, in float3 posW) { float3 diffuse = 0; float3 specular = 0; float3 direction = 0; int i; for...

    Scenario ISS Rendezvous

    :thumbup: If you want a special tool, there's Rendezvous MFD, developed for Orbiter 2005, still working great in 2010 with minor quirks, it helped me a lot on final approach. It shows you your trajectory relative to the target and the required trajectory to reach the target at the selected...
