Dan's holding out... :)

>Here's the last feature never seen in Orbiter:

A 3d Radar that work really and show ship around base... I plan to give
control of range with the VC and I plan to add sound like
"new contact designated RED ONE in approach"

One can power the radar on/off when off the green sphere is not displayed.

Will the interior of this base be viewable as several differet vcs, or will it be a case of using the U-mmu inside it?

Poor Dan... Everytime he has an update, he has to post it in at least three different threads to inform his legion
of anxious fans.  Take that, and add in the development of 5 new addons simultaneously. 8o

So sorry to bother you all with this pesky question...
I have been away for a while (due to finals).  Has a beta (or an alpha) been released for the symphony base? :bave:

Delayed to undefined date,First I'll finish the DeltaGliderIV, then I'll work several month
for my official job then I'll continue it.

Sorry, I understimated the time taken to do both addons, so finally the choice was either to
release two addon fast and badly done (DGIV and symphony) either to focus on one
and do the other later. Anyway as Symphony is a project  that I have since a long
time in mind I think I'll finish it, just the date is undefined yet.

In parallel with DGIV I'll finish also the UMmu SDK wich will be released
in same time than DGIV (I think january) and OrbiterSound 3.5 with somes
bug cleared.

Dan- If I ever win the lottery, I am going to support your family full-time. This way, in your "spare time" you can make
add-ons for Orbiter.

@Reekchaa

...oh yeah, the good old times :-)

...the Cobra Mark III, 100 credits, the Thargoids :badsmile:
And my first invest: a damned docking computer!!...hee...hee
That (manual!) synchronizing the spinning of the station...it was really tricky to dock, wasn´t it?
I still hear that music (Donau waltz from Straus, wasn´t it?)
Very similar to the new DG upgrade :) ...there is now an automatic docking also if you want...but much better graphics
at all ofcourse...and "Bach" not "Strauss" :badsmile"

@ Doc

You must be a young man, Doc...starting with a 386 :)

Isn´t that industry crazy? That´s my hardware-carreer:

1. That f** Atari console (can´t remember the name but a gane called "Star Raiders" - where everything begun :)

then...

2. Sinclair Spectrum ZX 81 (and a programm called "Fighter-Pilot" ...a F-16 on TAPE!!)  :badsmile:
3. C 64
4. Atari ST
5. Amiga 500
6. 1st PC 8086!! ...buahhhh :badsmile: CGA graphic, then EGA, then...can´t remember...
7. 286 and first Soundblaster!!
8. 386
9. First Pentium!! :badsmile:
10. Next Pentium
11. Actually: Pentium IV

Overall I spent a lot of money to this "Toy" - so what :badsmile:

hehe no no, i didn't express myself well enough. I was born in 75, so..

I only PLAYED elite on PC. Never got my hands on it, when I had c64. Did play Fighter pilot tho.. And MS Flight Simulator II.
haha. Refresh rate, 1 FPS.

Myself I started with C64, didn't care much for Spectrum. Went on directly to 286 (Monochrome), 386 (VGA), Pentium and
Athlon. With a few iterrations in between.

that strange sound (...iiiiihhhh....biip...biiip....rrrrrrrr.....iiiiihhh) and that blue color and the milky white text and that
order:  *,8,1 or so...can´t remember exactely and tht first steps in BASIC and...and...
...those days are gone (:
but today we have good machines :)  to play at home all that amazing stuff we´ve seen 25 years ago in the
the cinemas (in my case: "Star Wars", Starship Galactica" and so on)

THX to Martin :wor:
