Hey folks. I've been away from Orbiter for several years. I saw the new 2016 release and wanted to come back. However Orbiter is crashing when I select launch. I've not installed anything other than Orbiter 2016 and set my video configuration in the video tab. I've tried starting several...

Hey folks. I finally got around to installing Orbiter again after getting a new pc earlier this year. (Core i5, 4 gig ram, GTX 270, Windows 7 64bit) For some reason it appears as though when I select 32bit color in the video options, while in game when I hit F4 to bring up the program...

Can someone tell me what this error message is that I'm getting. I seem to get it when I try to zoom in very quickly on something in Orbiter. Thanks for any help. Here's my log: **** Orbiter.log Build Sep 29 2006 [v.060929] Found 0 joystick(s) Module AtlantisConfig.dll [API v.060425] Module...

Would it be possible to get a simple, generic jet engine that could be placed in the scenario editor? Something similar to Sputnik's Velcro addon that inludes the jato. That way we could use Kulch's universal cargo deck to attach the jet engine to other vehicles. Overshooting my base with the...

Hello there. Could someone point me to a site that has good, high resolution wallpapers of outerspace/shuttle/space vehicles? Thanks.

Hello there. I have the KSC Medium resolution texture installed but I'm also using Project X-15/Delta and Mercury Project. The custom Canaveral that these projects are using are overlapping my Medium Res KSC texture. Is there a way to disable the Project X-15 canaveral so that it does not...

Is there a fix to keep the GTX Trailblazer spaceplane from crashing? Usually the supplied scenarios work fine but always always always, the GTX crashes most of the time in the scenario editor. No matter what computer I'm on or what umpteenth Orbiter install I've tried to use the GTX in, it...

Could we at some point see a controllable freefaller? It would be great to have a controllable astronaut or ejected pilot. Control options would include for example: -ability to deploy the chute manually whenever and wherever desired -ability to have minimal control of the chute so as to...

Would it be possible to create some very simple and generic hangars and builidings that would be selectable from the scenario editor. I suppose then they would technically be vessels sort of like the prelude base. But it would be great to have a few selectable hangars and maybe very simple...

Is it possible to create a stationary camera view anywhere in Orbiter? Donamy had a youtube video of his Black Dart and the view seemed to be stationary while he was slewing to follow the moving craft. How do you achieve such a camera angle? I've tried experimenting with the camera options...

Would it be possible to create a spy camera either as a physical module that gets attached to the cargo bay of a recon bird or as a special mfd? I was playing with the camera mfd and it has a lot of great features that if enhanced a bit, would make a great spy camera for spyplanes. The spy...

I've been trying out the nebo cloud addon a lot more lately and have been enjoying it though its a bit intensive for my lower end computer. However today I installed the contrail addon that makes the exhaust plumes look more smoky and realistic and it appears that the nebo mod draws upon the...

Hello there. Could someone tell me what this is and how to fix it according to my Orbiter log? Finished setting up render state >>> ERROR: Missing texture: asphalt.dds >>> [C:\Source\Orbiter\Texture.cpp / 781] **** WARNING: Mesh not found: .\Meshes\.msh Thanks.

Hey there. I've never had this happen before but I recently reinstalled Orbiter again. For some reason my framerates and performance go to a crawl(borderline freezes) when I go into the 2D panel views. When I go outside and pan around everything is fine and dandy. Is there a specific order...

Hey there. Is there such a thing as an addon that will add just a bunch of objects and buildings to the scenario editor? Would like to put up some hangars and stuff and create my own little base. Thanks.

Hey there. I'm having trouble getting PX-15 V2 to work. I made a clean install of orbiter. I installed the CVEL Titans. I installed PX-15 V2. This is what my orbiter log says: **** Creating simulation session DirectDraw interface OK Direct3D interface OK Zbuffer: 32 bit Stencil buffer: 8...

Hello I'm new here. Though I still know very little, I've been enjoying Orbiter for quite awhile now. I have a question about astronaut models. Is it very hard to reskin an existing astronaut or are there any astronaut models out there that can be used as a replacement? I would love to...
