Thanks for the update and congratulations on being finished with the beta version.
I hope everyone had wonderful christmas and have a happy new year!

BTW Admin you might want to check the update post again, some of it got written twice.

Best Regards Mikkel.

Thanks for the end of the year update, good to hear that the beta is approaching finally.
Also, don't wanna be the guy, and I know it's still very much WIP, but I'll point it out just in case: the real STS-93 landed before midnight at MET 4 days and 22 hours. I know this stuff is secondary to having the mission work correctly, but since the landing was included in the screenshots, couldn't "not notice it"

Happy New Year to you, the whole team and your families, may it be filled with joy, health and satisfaction

You are correct, of course.

As the sim is now you can actually manually control the sun. Something that would be really nice in real life

Mostly to be able to test night/day texture transition and to improve visibility during testing.
But we are tempted to perhaps keep that "cheat" in the final release.

I understand, some useful development tools to test various things in game are welcome to try out different things without having to go back and forth and do it quicker.
Sorry if I came out as being pedantic and nitpicking, just wasn't sure what it was, especially since I remember that in SSMS 2007 there were some "alterations" between IRL missions and sim METs.
I now know better

Greetings to all, really looking forward to SSMS2

Thank you for the end of the year update. I hope that all of you had a good holiday. It is great to see that you almost have a fully working beta version of the program ready. I am looking forward to when the Space Shuttle Mission 2 program is finished, thank you for your hard work and continuing to develop the new simulator.

Hello @Admin, can you reveal the new features that has been worked on and added to SSMS2 over the years
Maybe with a gameplay video of the sim?

Regards Mikkel

Hi there!

Well, it will be a long list, that's for sure. We will prioritise the beta version first. And since no one at this end is good at making movies I guess we pass that one to.

I know we have a bunch of beta testers that is more into this movie stuff and I'm sure they would love to contribute with more then just beta testing.

But your point makes sense, of course.

Loving the progress! Thanks for another update!

CDRMikkel · May 30, 2024, 10:19:41 PM

That *NEW* on the Purchase button on the frontpage got me!

Admin · May 31, 2024, 07:30:30 AM

Sorry for causing confusion!

But when the new version is released it will probably be with more "fireworks"

Hello!

Just the finishing touches on beta version. New award functions is finished. And now we just play through all finished missions fixing bugs and checking collisions and comunications stuff.
A testable beta will be finalized before autumn, and that is almost a promise this time.
