Just to give some sign of life I just wanted to report that the communications are STILL being added. Things have taken quite some time but since you get wiser by age and we have got hands on even more detailed mission checklists the missions is being tweaked at the same time.

All this makes the Beta much more complete and reduce the number of possible bugs. When it comes to the communications all Capcom except landing is finished. All different comms during launch is finished. STS-1 is finished and STS-8 is almost finished.
Next things to add is docking ISS and EVA communications. It takes time, but as the library grows we don't need to add new sounds.
Its that darn listening/cut/resample/save part that makes you go LOL exactly  :(

But were getting there!
Finally, a little task for anyone that feels committed. We got the real INSAT deployment checklist for STS-8 and at least three DPS displays in SM mode is missing in both the "big" DPS dictionary and the Shuttle Crew Operations Manual.
We got the commands issued in the displays, but not the actual display layout.
The displays are numbered SM 211 <name of payload>, SM 206 <name of payload> and SM 201 DEPLOY.
If the shuttle had more payloads the next  payload displays was the next number.
So for STS-8 the SM 211 is ANIK and SM 212 PALAPPA and so on. Any info is appreciated :D

(Next time I promise we will add some screenshots to :P)

Regards!
