This addon simulates three modern Ariane 5 variants. The A5 G (Generic), the A5 ECA (enhanced with cryogenic second stage), and the hybrid A5 ATV (model that will be used to launch the European ATV ISS resupply craft). Using Thomas Ruth's beautiful free meshes and the CVE-lite programming library, the Ariane 5 is the flagship of the CCCP team's CVEL vessel fleet. (More...)

CVE-lite (abridged Common Vessel Extensions) is a programming library to aid developers of add-on vessels for Orbiter. It extends the native Orbiter VESSEL class with additional functionality for multiple payloads, enhanced mesh handling or scenario-file based multistage support. It implements the Generic Payload Description System (GPDS) to allow the end user to express via simple lines in the scenario file any payload and, if using another CVEL vessel, any additional upper stages.

DeltaGliderIII is a light space vessel capable of long-distance flights. It features highly realistic and fully functional cockpit instruments, which include not only flight instruments but also controls for the life support system, electric system, fuel system. DeltaGliderIII contains a live crew who can die if the cabin pressure, temperature or CO2 levels are unacceptable. Unlike most vessels in Orbiter, DeltaGliderIII can develop faults in response to overloads such as extreme G-force or reentry temperature, which limit vessel's functionality. The crew of DeltaGliderIII is able to perform Extra-Vehicular Activity: they can go into open space inside a space suit with primitive engines and instruments. (More...)

OMB is a lightweight MFD capable of a rudimentary simulation of human physiological reactions to external agents common amongst long-distance travellers. It features a highly realistic and a fully functional input selection, which includes not only a sophisticated human tolerance estimator but also controls the level of effect of each different hazard. OMB assumes a live crew of one who can die if pressures of solitary flight become unacceptable and cause a directional error. Unlike most addons in Orbiter, OMB concentrates on faults in response to human choices which limit the vessel's utility. Released in 2003, OMB was one of the very first realism-enhancement addons for Orbiter. (More...)

Project Apollo for Orbiter (aka NASSP) simulates the Apollo missions to Earth orbit and the Moon, and is slowly expanding to simulate planned post-Apollo missions that never flew. The latest beta version features a near-full implementation of the control panels in the Command Module and Lunar Module, and an increasingly accurate simulation of the internal systems (e.g. electrical distribution, fuel cells). Also in the latest beta is support for the Virtual AGC software, which allows you to run precisely the same on-board guidance software as used by the real Apollo Guidance Computer. (More...)

Space Shuttle Deluxe is based on the code and model of the stock Atlantis which comes with Orbiter 060929. Our goal is to fill in the vast detailed virtual cockpit, and make as detailed and accurate a model as possible, at the expense of everything, including possibly ease of use. (More...)

WindowTack ensures that when running Orbiter in windowed mode, the position of the render window is remembered and restored on subsequent runs. On first run, the render window will be centered on the primary screen. Afterwards, the render window will appear at exactly the same place where it was when you last ran Orbiter. (More...)
