OFSS II - Project Info & Discussion Thread

Not open for further replies.
which payloads? if they are SC3 you can edit the payload mass in the ini file.
 
Space Station Building Blocks.
Yeah I think they do use SC3, but I read in another thread that even editing the payload mass via ini doesn't fix Shuttle Fleet not making orbit.

I'll have to see for myself.

Ok having another issue.
I manually added pad LC39 which is part of the ISS v3.2 addon.
No where in the documentation does it list key commands to move the pad parts i.e. fuel cap, whiteroom, RSS.

I was also looking for documentation explaining the lines of code for LC39 in the scenario file.
Also missing from the documentation.

Example:
Code:
LC39:ISSR\LC39
  STATUS Landed Earth
  POS -80.6041380 28.6082950
  HEADING 0.00

END

Where's the documentation for this stuff? Or am I blind?

Here...
Don't know the answers to your question though... I've never tried the LC-39 manually, I think it might have been mentioned in the thread for ISS 3.2 though.
 
I have exams and I broke my ankle during STS-134's launch so I haven't been active in supplying missions so I'm giving the next 10 scenarios or so in PM to PhantomCruiser so that he can be in charge of the project for the time being.
 
Scenarios received. The next pilot on the roster will be getting a PM reminder soon after I get home today.
 
STS-150 Mission Information

STS-150-Mission-Patch.png



The NASA Authorization Act of 2010 directs NASA to conduct the STS-150 mission. The mission is scheduled to launch tomorrow morning, Thursday, December 3rd 2015 at 01:17:09 EST (05:17:09 GMT).
{actual launch this afternoon}
Astronauts Gene F. Bishop will command the shuttle, along with pilot Don "Smitty" Statsmith, Ty Vause as mission specialist 1, and ESA's Arturo Fioravanti as mission specialist 2.

Endeavour will carry the Habitat Module 2, or HabMod2 to the OFSS2 space station, providing even more living space and comfort for station inhabitants.
The mission also has two space walks scheduled for additional station assembly and maintenance.
Endeavour is planned to return to the Kennedy Space Center on Sunday December 13th.


Meet the Crew

bishop.png


Gene F. Bishop
Commander
Age 47

Flew for his father's regional airline before he graduated college with an Engineering degree.
Enrolled in the U.S. Navy after several years of civilian flying. Met Don Statsmith on the USS Nimitz during his second tour.
Stayed for another two tours before leaving to consult for a classified government agency.
Eventually joined NASA to start flying again, but insisted that they only hire him if he was allowed to bring cassettes of every Genesis album ever made on each mission.
And a tape player.


statsmith.png


Don "Smitty" Statsmith
Pilot
Age 45

Started his aviation career early playing with balsa wood gliders in his backyard.
Received his private pilot's license before his high school diploma, a day after he turned 16.
Completed three tours in the U.S. Navy off the USS Nimitz before testing new designs with Lockheed Martin.
Is known to pick up local bar girls three at a time the day before a mission. Several reprimands on file.


vause.png


Ty Vause
Mission Specialist 1
Age 46

Built his first engine before he could legally drive a car. Was interested in aviation through his father, a then United Express J41 pilot.
Rebuilt two early retired J41 aircraft from Trans States Airlines before he graduated college, earning a degree in Aeronautical Engineering and later a Masters.
Has a superstition that if he doesn't take Tang with him on every mission his EVA suit will malfunction.


fioravanti.png


Arturo Fioravanti
Mission Specialist 2
Age 45

Flew Panavia Tornado IDS A-200A aircraft for the Italian Air Force after he finished college.
After several tours he left to work as a foreign consultant for Northrop Grumman.
Eventually joined the European Space Agency after learning of plans for the Orbiter Forum Space Station 2, since his father had also been with the ESA and helped build the OFSS1 station.
Makes every shuttle crew he flies with sing along to R. Kelly's "I Believe I Can Fly" after MECO.

(** I'll post the screenshots and possibly a youtube video of the mission after I fly it today. Stay tuned **)

Alrighty!

So STS-150 did launch yesterday (as it's 1:22AM while I type this).
I didn't finish the whole mission, I only had time for launch and completion of Flight Day 1.
What else did I do with all that extra time?

Bring you a video! And yes, it's on youtube for your convenience and viewing pleasure.
Enjoy the launch of STS-150, taking HabMod2 to the OFSS2.

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhDky-1z-a0"]STS-150 Endeavour Shuttle Launch[/ame]

I'll finish up the mission tomorrow, and then upload a video of the landing complete with an uplink to Pilot Smitty's HUD on the flight deck.
Screenshots I'll post in the screenshots forum after everything is wrapped up.

For tonight, the four crew members of STS-150 are going to get some sack time. They have a busy day tomorrow (and so do I).

---------- Post added at 21:58 ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 ----------

STS-150 complete.
I still have to finish editing the landing video and sort through my screenshots.
I won't finish that until tomorrow, but the post-scenario file is posted.

Aaaaaaand here's the landing video.
I know some guys have trouble with shuttle landings, so I'm also including the playback file of my manual approach. The playback starts as the shuttle just hits the west coastline of Florida.

STS-150 Landing Playback Scenario
http://www.mediafire.com/?viv17o2of6otc1v

If you want to follow along to the MFD's I used, you'll need the GPCMFD ops 3 page (included with ShuttleFleet 4.7) and GlideslopeMFD (http://www.orbithangar.com/search_quick.php?text=glideslope&submit.x=0&submit.y=0) which does work in 2010+P1.

Maybe people can take away what they want from what I did to help their own manual shuttle approaches (at least until the new AutoFCS version is released for Orbiter 2010).
Enjoy the vid!


Will post screenshots in the screenshot forum in a bit.

I just can't get over how amazing your updates regarding STS-150 are, well done sir!
 
Here you go. And it's mission 19 BTW, must be another mistake in the pre-flight scn's thread.

Ah, roger that. Saw Mission 19 posted by Kyle, then 21 by Phantom, thought I might of missed a program change, like an insertion of a non-STS mission between STS-149 and -150. It's just a typo, however.
 
STS-152 finished. Will post screenshots a bit later today.
 
Ok I really need to get all the required add-ons installed.I only installed a few yesterday.Should they be installed in any particular order?
