 ASTER GDEMv2 30m mesh North Africa Pt14 incl Morocco, Algeria, W. Sahara, Mauritania.
209.04Mb (579 downloads)
There are Eighteen (18) parts of this mesh to download as separate files. ASTER GDEM Version 2 is a 30 metre definition DEM, its better than the version 1 data that ERSDAC, of Japan and NASA originally released, but it does have its limitations. GDEM has been obtained from a satellite that uses stereoscopic infrared scanning cameras, this brings with it problems in the resultant data.....where it sees the tops of trees, buildings etc, as the ground terrain. If you look at the jpg image with the terrain type errors shown as a graph, you will see that the only 'safe' terrain to use this data with - in FSX - is scrubland, or desert terrain. Its hopeless in defining the terrain in places like Europe - with all the artificial structures, (buildings) and different types of woodland, so any mesh I create from this data won't include areas like that....it will be more desert type terrain, and scrubland. I won't be doing Greenland because something about the ice around Greenland, (or any other land mass with ice) it creates false data. It does give enough fine data to reveal railway lines, and some roads though. This mesh has been made for FSX only. Grateful thanks to ERSDAC, and NASA for making this data freely available to the public. ASTER GDEM Copyright (c) 2009 - 2011 Earth Remote Sensing Data Analysis Center (ERSDAC) All rights reserved.

Soviet Space Shuttle Buran V4.8 Release 3
Soviet Space Shuttle Buran V4.8 Release 3 (Category: Space Orbiter > Orbiter Addons)
3.65Mb (6307 downloads)
Soviet Space Shuttle Buran, Version V4.8.1 on January 16, 2012. This model utilizes meshes and textures recently updated by Don Gallagher ("Donamy"). This version is essentially a Shuttle Fleet V4.8 vehicle, modified in several places. This package uses a Multistage2 (included along with BrianJ's updated stage.dll) Energia launch vehicle. Because of the changes to the fleet vehicle, this model required its own version of the GPCMFD ("BGPCMFD.dll, included) and the payload bay lights ("BPBLights.dll", also included). The included scenarios have two scenarios that utilize the latest New Mir release: Three runway bases are included, Baikonur, Khorol in the far East (a contingency abort landing site) and Simferopol (the western contingency abort landing site). The BGPCMFD uses a separate landing site table file which has these three landing sites as the first three landing site choices. To use these bases, a model of the Buran Analogue which had its own jet engines is also included in order to practice approach and landing. The majority of features and key controls are identical to the Shuttle Fleet V4.8 and the manual for the add-on should be referenced. The one major key difference is using "CTRL+J" which will extend / retract the docking system tunnel. The tunnel should be extended prior to docking (the docking port is offset accordingly as is the docking port view). The latest versions of RPOP and Universal Pointing MFDs are included in case you install this package and do not have Shuttle Fleet V4.8 already installed. Please test this package on a "clean" installation with only Orbitersound, UMMU 2.0, the latest Mir package and Shuttle Fleet V4.8 only.

Embraer 312 Tucano 2D wide-screen panel.
Embraer 312 Tucano 2D wide-screen panel. (Category: FSX > Panels)
4.50Mb (926 downloads)
A 2D wide-screen panel for J.E. Narcizo's beautiful Embraer 312 Tucano T-27, based on the Simshed Shorts Tucano panel and gauges, and including an adapted minipanel. No VC. Most probably FS2004 compatible. Will fit to any other EMB Tucano (e.g. J.R. Lucariny's Tucano).

NASA Aircraft Fleet V4.5 for Orbiter 2010
NASA Aircraft Fleet V4.5 for Orbiter 2010 (Category: Space Orbiter > Orbiter Addons)
10.46Mb (4552 downloads)
This is an add-on pack for use with the shuttle fleet. Please read the manual included in the Add-on Docs directory. You must have first installed Shuttle Fleet V4.8, BEFORE you install this package. Credits in the manual. UPDATED 13 July 2007: Corrected the aircraft flight models to have the jet engines flameout at too high an altitude and corrected the inappropriate deployment of the landing gear on Enterprise when being carried on the SCA. To ensure that automatic deployment occurs, the scenario file line "CALLOUT" must be included, otherwise the gear can only be armed and deployed manually. UPDATED 22 NOVEMBER 2007: Version 4.0.0 includes updates based upon HUD updates to the shuttle fleet to correct a problem with the altitude ladder above 5000 feet. UPDATED 20 December 2007: Version 4.0.1 is a minor update that removes the RCS indications and the autopilot attitude hold mode selections from the aircraft fleet. UPDATED 2 July 2010: Version V4.5 updates the aircraft fleet to the new Orbiter 2010.

Skylab Fleet V4.8 for Orbiter 2010
Skylab Fleet V4.8 for Orbiter 2010 (Category: Space Orbiter > Orbiter Addons)
4.33Mb (2769 downloads)
Back in 2004, Manuel Amorim ("McDope"), one of the original add-on providers for Orbiter, released a package for use with Orbiter 031217. This package was for simulations of the Skylab program from 1973. While better meshes and models are available today, these models provide excellent frame rates and are still useful for simulations of past missions using historically accurate state vectors. I decided to update these models for use with Orbiter 2010 since the originals no longer work under the new Orbiter. Additionally, these models will provide for alternate history simulations with the Shuttle Fleet V4.8. I have added the UMMu capability to the Apollo, Skylab, and a docking module that will allow for shuttle missions and have created attachments for navigation / rendezvous and spot lights using historical documentation of the location of these lights. Finally, I have created the necessary docking port to allow for the attachment of the CMG V2.0 by "poscik" and the CMGmesh V1.0 by "c3po" for attitude control. Using the state vectors, I have provided historically accurate launch scenarios and undocking scenarios for use. One of the motion pictures that helped foster my love of spaceflight in my youth was the classic "Marooned" from 1969. Before there even was a Skylab, the crew of Ironman One spent months in an orbiting laboratory. In the movie, a Saturn V launched the lab, but I have created a "wet" workshop that can be launched by the Saturn-IB for this addon just for fun. Upon docking, switch to the workshop and deploy the solar arrays using "CTRL+K". This workshop can also accommodate the CMG add-on for attitude control. I hope you enjoy these "legacy" add-ons from the past of Orbiter as well as the enhancements I have created for them.
