| New EMU and LRV meshes for NASSP v2.2 (BETA2) |
|
File Description:
This add-on is simply a slight modification to an already superb add-on done by Spacebar Joe (NASSP) and I created it to enhance the ambience and experience of lunar landings in Orbiter.
Although the Orbiter simulation engine is still quite limited when it comes to modelling character or land vehicle movement, the NASSP package
offers a nice way for you to do this. However, I was not satisfied with the 3D-models that came with the add-on, so I decided to create my own detailed 3D-models for the lunar astronaut (EMU) and the lunar rover (LRV). The new models are named sat5AstroS.msh (745 kb), and LRV.msh (1,617 kb), both of which will OVERWRITE the older NASSP astronaut and LRV models. Please back up these two files (in your meshes folder) before installing this add-on. The LRV was created based on 3-views (plans) photos and drawings that I got from the Apollo Lunar Surface Journals (ALSJ) Website. The EMU model was created mostly from videos and pictures of Apollo spacesuits. It features a semitransparent
faceplate (visor up) and you can actually see the astronaut’s head inside the helmet! ;) NOTE that this is still a BETA (work in progress) and the models will be updated periodically.
WARNING: Due to the fact that these models are quite polygon-heavy, some
slower computers with low-end graphics cards will run very slow if my models are active. There might also be cases when ORBITER will crash due to the complexity of the models.
More info can be read in the PDF file that comes with the package.

| Apollo 17 Night Launch |
|
File Description:
Apollo 17 night launch scenario.All floodlights activated. Countdown picks up at T-10 minutes. Many thanks to Brian Jones for his awesome lights and Kev Shanow for his incredibly detailed pad and MLP. MUST have latest Orbiter and all patches installed in addition to NASSP 6.4.2 to use this scenario! Includes textures and cfgs (renamed where necessary to avoid overwriting).

| Saturn V Crawler Rollout version 10.. |
|
File Description:
This is the Saturn V VAB to Launch Centre Crawler version 10 with the NASSP 5.0 Apollo 11 attached...High detail (High Polygon Count)...Not For Low End Computers..The Saturn V Mesh is included because it needed to be rotated 90', but the Module and Textures are not included so the NASSP ver 5.0 must be downloaded and installed first before you install this add-on,it can be found at ( http://spacebarjoe.free.fr/NASSP5.zip ), the mesh names are changed so it will not overwrite.Press CTRL and Minus on the numpad to get rolling, throttle back to maintain a velocity of 1..In Scenario 4 use K to operate the Crane and G to operate the Gangway and Swingarms.Uses Vinka's Spacecraft2.DLL(included)...Needs OrbiterSound 3.0 or higher installed and the latest Orbiter Version and Patch.

| Early Saturns Version 1 |
|
File Description:
The Early Saturns project accurately simulates the early saturn boosters that predated the Saturn IB and Saturn V. These interim vehicles taught the US how to build superboosters and helped make the moonlandings possible.
Included:
Saturn C-1 two stage booster
Saturn SIC three stage
Saturn SIC/boilerplate with a test Apollo CSM (similar to block one, recovery systems not implemented in this release)
Launch Complex 37A and B, update to Launch Complex 34
REQUIRES VINKAS MULTISTAGE DLL!
NASSP SATURN IB REQUIRED IF YOU WISH TO USE THE SIB ON THESE PADS.
