Delta IV Problems

[MeDiCS]

Hi,

This is my first post here, and I've been playing Orbiter for over a week now. I'm using all official high texture packs, plus high texture runway, OrbiterSound 3.5, Delta-Glider IV (the ship I like best, since it's very "realistic") and UMMU (is that right?). I've been able to get to orbit (w/ an ecc of 0.0001!), but reentry (don't yet care where I land, just want to reenter) is still impossible for me (I read you need Trim, but what's it?).

I have tryied several times landing from Atmo Testing scenario and the best result I could get was my landing gear getting smashed. A while ago I was able to successfully land on Cape Run. 33 (vertical speed of -4m/s, not sure what's the limit). The thing is that I want to refuel my DGIV: I need to completely stop (done), open fuel hatch (also done) and wait for the refueling truck, but the truck isn't appearing! I landed in the middle of the runway (luckly!).




Also, my cockpit seems too big for the screen. I'm using 1024x768 resolution (the higher my comp can). This happens to all ship's cockpits as far as I know




Thanks in advance for any reply .

The refuelling truck is only a sound that can be heared in cockpit view and is not visible. And to make the panel smaller go to "Parameters" in the launch pad and change "Panel scale".

I'd advise against using panel scale. Usaly it makes things unreadable. You should be able to scroll the panel by using the arrow keys.

Thanks for the replies :speakcool:

Tank refueled!

Yes, scale does make some thing unreadable, but it's the only way to see everything on the right and left corners

Use the arrow keys for scrolling, you can't have everything.
