I have decided to get a team together and build the largest surface-landable ship in the Orbiter community.  But I'm
going to need some help.  I can build the Anim 8 or models, but I'm going to need somebody to do the dynamics,
textures and panel (and a few extras).  Development on the 3D model is already underway.
You can find more information in the forum at http://www.brenton-spaceagency.cjb.net

I wish I could help in even the littlest way, but, however, I suck.


Edit: thinking back, maybe you guys can let me beta test it? hee hee!!

textures)

News: Prototype 3D model has been completed.  You can see a screenshot of it at
http://www.brenton-spaceagency.cjb.net and click the OHCP link in the menu.

Hmmm... This ship doesn't seem to be able to land on a surface or even survive a reentry!
Is this one going to be realistic or sci-fi-like?


Cheers,

Probably a sci-fi type spacecraft, anyway the model shown on the site is only a prototype model, undoubtedly the
final version will look a lot different (I can only make basic shapes in Anim 8 or) The screenshot's only really there to keep people interested TBH.

Maybe I could try to do the mesh for you!
You could send me the *.3ds file.

Err, can i jsut say that you probably wont get help by pposting "i need a programmer" threads every couple of hours,
you're just likely to piss off the programmers :)
Looks good, though.
