I´m also still at the noob stage ;) Initial idea and design : my fantasy mostly,some inputs from sci-fi,real world. First sketch: Pen and paper Model : Gmax (pro=free,easy to learn,logical to use,powerful functions for texturing,con=sometimes prone to crash,no updates anymore,no .dds...

ABSOLUTELY FRIGGIN` AMAZING! I think i take my holiday early when UCGO is out... This will bring Orbiter to a whole new level !

i must admit that i used the do31 for my model... ;) http://orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=9948&page=2

Yup...i better not tell that the cockpit needed cleaning after the KILLROT-autopilot :lol:

Yeah...but the cable on the winch of the dropship is only 50 meters long...not 100k ;)

Dropship is nearly complete...im not happy with the vc...but it stays that way for a while... In the process of testing i discovered a new (albeit cruel) sport.... : UMMU THROWING OFF THE HOOK ! Recipe: 1. Get a Ummu attached to the winch : 2. Spin the Dropship fast around Z or X axis...

Nice to see it its still being developed :speakcool: What about a damage model? (overheating,breaking up?) Adding reentry effects?

Hi Well i thought of having a external program (like the config program for the dgiv) for building a custom dll for ships. It should be easy (just some fields to fill out,rollout choices...) to use but still offer flexibility like rotating engines or damage. What would be even more nice would...

here´s the ini: in the normal cockpit view the mfds are on...do i have to turn them on again in the vc? ---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 PM ---------- Problem solved :P I needed to have textures on the planes ...this is neither in the doc of...

Hi im currently building a VC for my addon,but i have a problem. I defined the VC in the ini of my vessel and my mesh has the proper rectangles for the mfds and hud,however i dont see them in-game.i only see 2 black squares for the mfds and nothing for the hud. what could have gone wrong?

Took me a while to fiddle it out right :) Here is the snippet from the *.ini :

Really small update : Some textures done,and just for comparsion a Ummu and a DG:

Small update ;) Zop Heavy Industries presents the Lifting/Landing Utility Craft (LLUC), intended as Dropship for the yet unnamed Explorer: Features: -Fully Moving parts (except nosewheel steering) -elevon control surfaces (ailerons and elevator combined) -retractable Landing Gear -Utility...

Thanks :) I thought of making all the assets (Mothership,dropship and the rover ) Ummu-compatible....but for that i will have to learn to code my own module...which could take awhile. And as of yet i have no idea how this big ship was launched...you are welcome to think something up...or maybe...

small update... dropship modelled , but not textured on approach to its dockingbay... looks like dansteph will beat me for release with his mothership... ;)

*.dds files dont work in gmax as far as i know....
