I hope that you all notice the new cool environmental sounds we've got from "Moonwalker" here (flight deck, mid-deck and SpaceLab, and the additional Shuttle on Launchpad 39B, ready to jump to the rescue in case STS-125 is in danger <g>.

If you also want to practice that rescue mission, you only have to fire STS-401 and have a ball

. I guess we've covered all the bases here.

Very nice!

Curious, though, if you thought about changing from LON-401 to LON-400, as the mission would have been 400? Just a question, doesn't need action.

I left STS-401 for last mission hoping for STS-125 release, and so now I'm very happy! I have just placed Hubble on the FSS....

Good idea to add new sounds, and yes, the second Shuttle made the pre-launch very cool!
Thank you very much for this gift!

I haven't checked it out yet, but including the second shuttle o0n the other pad is very much appreciated. Thanks, guys

Great to read that you obviously have included the sounds. That's amazing, at least I hope so. Because I'm not yet able to have a look sadly. I had to reconfigure my entire system and lost my SSM partition (and so the activation). So I'm going to use SSM on a USB stick to avoid future activation issues. I'll get the stick hopefully tomorrow. Can't wait to check the latest SSM version

I just love this simulation and its progress

Moonwalker, you are also credited in the Commander's Reference manual V3.40 -

Thanks. I did not expect that something like this happens at all. That's how a small idea becomes reality after watching a NASA clip. Thanks to you guys!

By the way, how do the sounds work? Does the sound change depending on where you are floating to (mid-deck / flight deck / Spacelab)? Do you have a short pre-information for me until I get SSM running on my new stick?

Admin · July 23, 2009, 08:37:32 AM

Yes, of course! And they merge and mix wonderfully depending on your location. We like that very much!

WOW! It must sound just like within the real Shuttle. It's like Christmas now until I get my USB stick...
