    Software anim8or crash problem

    Hello, Having some trouble with anim8or. I was in the middle of making a space plane when I messed up, and attempted to load a previous save. anim8or immediatly crashed, bringing the standard windows "Program has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem" message. This...

    Question Wings and Boosters

    Hello folks, I'm new to the whole addon making scene, but I managed to knock up a decent STSO and an Aircraft Carrier, so I figure I'm ready to have a bash at designing and making my own addon. I'm just going to go for a pretty standard spaceplane, with the idea being that it's the sort of...

    Advanced Question Making a texture and fitting it to a mesh...

    I'm just sorta getting into the whole addon making thing, and am knocking up some reasonable first attempts at meshes within anim8or. Next step (obviously) would be making textures and fitting them, however, I'm unsure what the best program to use for making the textures is, and I'm also curious...

    Programming Question Creating a ship as a beginner

    First of all, I apologies if this has been answered already. Seems like it would be a common question, but I can't find it anywhere. There's a ship I'd really like to fly in Orbiter, nobody is making it and nobody seems to have any plans to, so I'd kinda like to simply make it myself. It's a...

    Problem 2D Cockpits problem

    Hi folks, I'm having a bit of a sticky issue, unfortunatly this is ruining my orbitnauting, since it occurs with my two favorite craft, the XR-series and DGIV. Essentially, the 2D cockpits are messed up, it looks like the moveable sections (i.e. the power levers) are somehow behind the main...

    Problem Odd FPS Problem

    Wotcher folks, I've really, really been enjoying orbiter. But I bought a new laptop, and it is now unplayable, which upsets me very much. Oddly, this laptop is far better than the last, so I see no reason why orbiter shouldn't play. The problem is pretty simple, upon starting Orbiter...

    Request Adamist Starships from "A Nights Dawn" Trilogy

    Wotcher folks, I'm a big fan of the Sci-Fi author Peter F Hamilton, and would especially love to see some of his ships recreated in Orbiter. Has anybody ever done, or would anybody be willing to do, an addon to simulate some of them? There are quite a few in total, but the simplest would...

    Problem Odd Jerkiness and Problems with Widescreen

    Hi Chaps, Loving Orbiter even more than every really. I have to say this is one simulator that gets more and more fun every time you play it. I've recently developed a couple of problems though, I bought a new laptop (yay) and promtly installed orbiter (though I had to re-download everything...

    General Question Module Quasar

    Hi Guys, Having a bit of trouble with the Quasar module (Module Quasar), I'm trying to install it onto a station I'm building, but I can't get the module to appear. I can put the vessel into the scenario, and the sim thinks it's there, but there's nothing to actually see, just empty space. I'm...

    General Question Sync orbit taking too long

    Wotcher, OK, little odd one this I feel. I can Sync Orbit fine, but as I'm beginning to use more realistic craft such as the XR-5 I find it takes too long, the crew runs out of oxygen and everybody dies. Now, I think the problem is that when I first Align Planes and prepare to Sync, the...

    General Question A couple of (probably embaressing) questions

    Hi chaps, Right, I have a couple of questions that are probably ridiculously newbie, since I can't find anyone else asking the same thing. That sorta hints to me that I'm just being incredibly dense. So, without further ado: 1) How in God's name do I get spacecraft to appear in the...

    General Question Total fuel loss upon final seperation.

    Evening everyone, First of all I'd like to introduce myself; my names Dan and, although this is my first post here, I've been flitting around both Orbiter and this forum for about a year. I'm a fairly casual player, but I've so far managed to master the DGIV, DGex (which I particularly...
