Well, it's been a buisy time
lately, which means that i haven't had much
time to
do anything for Orbiter... But in this vacation i
had some time to check out the
new version of Orbiter, and i have to say it's pretty
nice to build your own stations
and dock your vessel to another one...
But to get to the point, i haven't made any new
add-ons yet, and although i'm
working on some of those models i got from a
website they still need a lot of work.
I did notice that Orbiter now supports
directories so i just got started with
upgrading my old add-ons first.
I've updated all the bases, space stations and
combo's, the updates mostly where
the introduction of the directory support of the
scenario files and i also
recompressed the
upgrades so that my add-ons no longer are zip
files but now are self extracting
winrar archives, the self extractor makes the use of
Winrar obsolete so you won't
need to download winrar, and winrar compresses the files
better then winzip so i
can now put more files in one compressed winrar file. The
self extractor does have
one slight disadvantage, the smaller add-ons
(like my bases)
now are larger in
filesize because the self extractor had to be intergraded into
them. But the larger
add-ons like the OSCF or Project_Mars have become smaller in
size.
Furthermore i've opend a domeinname for my
website, it's a dot tk adress but at
east it's free and the url is now easier to
remember.
the url is: www.voyager-sputnik.tk
. There might be a error while opening the
website through this url because Netstat (which keeps
track of how many people
visit my website) doesn't seem to like it when someone
visits through a dot tk
adress. but it should not make any links break down or something
so it should not
be such a problem
And
the last thing of this update is that i'm building as you read this some
nice
station parts and some launchers to bring them into
orbit.
I will also continue to
upgrade my remaining add-ons and i will release those
soon. (within a week or 2)
I hope you all had a nice christmas and a HAPPY
NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!

Finally a
new site lay-out!!, i don't know for all of you but the old site was hard
to
work with and i didn't like the way it looked eighter, so i put
many manhours into
making a new website and this is what came out of all my effords, i hope you
all like
it! If anyone has any comments about the new site feel free to mail me anytime
with suggestions,
questions, remarks, ect.
With the new site lay-out comes more pages and a
much more usefull interface
system, and i've split the pictures site up into multiple sites so
that you guys out
there who do now have such a fast internet connection as i have (Cable) can
still
see the pictures without
having to wait for 30 minutes before the page fully loads.
For the rest
all the old add-ons are still available at my site.
As some of you may know from me i never make a
new site update when i don't
have a new add-on ready to download, so here is a list of new
add-ons i've created
in what ever time i could find to make them, i hope you all will like them:
Click on the names of the add-ons to go to the
sections where you can download
them
- VRDB (Voyagers Research and Development
Base)
- SORS (Saturn's Orbital Refueling
Station)
- EHGL (Experimental High Gravity
Launcher) (usefull on Saturn and Jupiter)
I've alsp put the Space Shuttle Fleet up for
download, you can only download
Atlantis and Columbia yet but i plan to make all 6 space shuttle in
time.
Also i've uploaded some of my source codings and
a tutorial to help you guys who
want to program for yourself
And on popular request i've uploaded a traveller
preview, so you can toy around
with this fine rocket.
