Idea Mercury and Gemini add-on improvements

[Starshipexplorer]

MY thoughts to you and your son also.

 

[Dambuster]

My thoughts and prayers are with you, I can't begin to imagine how difficult this must be for you.

 

[jacquesmomo]

So sad... I don't know what to say...

 

[Columbia42]

My thoughts and condolences.

 

[PhantomCruiser]

I cannot fathom what you are going through, I can only offer a few prayers. You and your son stay strong and support each other.

 

[Saturn V]

Rebuilt gantry & animation sequence complete...

 

[Star Voyager]

That's too cool! Excellent work, Saturn V!

 

[4throck]

Nice!

 

[Columbia42]

I have a question about the Gemini spacecraft. What sort of launch abort system did they use? I don't see any launch escape tower.

 

[Star Voyager]

They either ejected with ejection seats if they were below 50,000 ft. or the retro engines pushed them away from the Titan if they were above 50,000 ft.

 

[Saturn V]

And yes, they work on the Gemini 4.5 add-on.

Will try to finalize all the textures and such over the next few days and release LC19 as a "stand-alone" add-on. Still don't have the presence of mind to coordinate everything into one big add-on at this point. I'll get this stuff uploaded as I can...

 

[Donamy]

Very nice !!! I wish there was an applause smiley

 

[80mileshigh]

Wow, that looks awesome. Great work!

 

[Star Voyager]

Does anyone know if there's a diffreence between the Agena's from Gemini 8, 10,11,12 from the "Angry Alligator"?

 

[Shadow Addict]

Yeah, the Alligator was an ATDA (Agena Target Docking Adapter, maybe?), which I don't think had the engines of an Agena.

 

[Star Voyager]

Thanks, I also found a significance that I couldn't see while comparing photos:

 

[Saturn V]

Launchable Agena & ATDA will follow the new LC19 release.

 

[aries197012]

That looks impressive. Nice Work.:thumbup:

 

[Star Voyager]

Launchable Agena & ATDA will follow the new LC19 release.

Can't wait! After all this, I think there will be nothing else to improve. Unless you have something else you want to work on...

 

[Saturn V]

Been looking at a releasable version of LC19 and realized that some of the scenarios are dependant on the Agena configuration of LC14 as well, and that being the case, it wouldn't make much sense to upload it until I've finished the fine-tuning on that...which also means that the Agena/ATDA should be (pardon the pun) "launched" with the rest of the stuff. Kinda painted myself into a corner on this one...

Agena launch setup complete.

Can anyone help with the ini & guidance files for the ATDA launch?
