General discussion / Re: SSMS2 ?
« Last post by gxm149 on April 23, 2023, 01:09:12 AM »
I for one am glad that the Space Shuttle Mission Simulator 2 is still being developed so I want to say thank you to the development team. I will continue to patiently wait until it is finished. I do agree with ratchet233 as well though. It would be nice to have the legacy Space Shuttle Mission Simulator available for purchase on Steam as well, that way if anything happens to your copy of the program or you update your hardware you wouldn't have to worry about contacting the admins for a new key or anything. You could simply reinstall it through Steam. You could maybe update the textures for the earth to a higher resolution though so that it would be closer to the current standards. Other than that I think that the original program would still hold it's own with some of the newer programs that are available. When it was released in 2007 it really was a top of the line program and I still enjoy using it. I would also like to suggest that with the new program whenever it is ready, it would be nice to have the shuttle U.S.S. Enterprise with the Approach and Landing Test (ALT) as an introductory mission as an easy way to get you familiar with the like the original Space Shuttle simulator from Virgin Games did back in the 1990's but I know that is still a long way off before you begin considering anything like that. Thank you for continuing to work on the program and I will be looking forward to whenever it is ready and available for purchase.

To bad that you feel that way. But we can understand you. There's just so many hours a day and just so many days a year and that will never change. :(
But your always welcome back when we finish SSMS2.

Thirteen years and still no SSMS2.  How about selling what you have to a serious developer who will finish it? Obviously, the gang of hobbyist is not cutting it.
The original was worth the money, but after completing all the missions 3 times, and getting only promises of something in the future, it is time for me to move on.
Pretty sad.

Thank you for the latest update on your progress. It is great to hear that work is still continuing on SSMS2, I am looking forward to when you get it done to a point where it is ready for release. I still regularly use the original SSMS program and I can not wait for the new version to become available when it is ready.

My bad!

The critical moments I talked about happens during countdown of course. The actual launch is just a matter of enjoying the view.
Unless something unforseen happens :o

Oh wow thanks! I would pretty much stay and do nothing before and while it launched, I must be missing some key movements that im not flipping switches and such.

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!

I was just wondering if you could give an update on how the development of SSM2 is going? It has been a while since there has been an update and I was just curious to know how things are going with your development of the new program and what has changed since the last update that you gave us last year. Thank you for continuing to work on it.

Before and after launch, yes. Throughout ascent? No.
