oooops thats me

I still have the box, and it comes with 2 manuals and a big poster thingy of all the controls. I could scan these in, but how could I get them onto the site?

Send it to Tom, but you should probably PM him about it first.

Had the game a very long time... Never had any chance to finish it. Nowadays it's a new topic because of the 'launch-to-come" and i was trying the "cheat" for gainig access to all missions, but it still does not work! :-(

I bought shuttle a long time ago. I never got past the first test orbit flight. The recent space shuttle flight got me thinking about it again. I got the game running thanks to a program called DosBox. But I am running into the same problem I ran into when I first bought it.

The problem I have is in the deorbit stage. The launch and orbit phase went according to the book. I then selected mission coms and went about stowing Ku, radiators, and payload doors. The first unusal thing was that the KU band antenna jambed and I was requested to jettsion it, which I did. After the radiators and payload doors were stowed, I was requested to switch the DAP to manual, which I did. This is were I ran into problems. I was not instructed to do anything else, but after awhile I start getting promts from mission control to proceed. I'm not sure what I am supposed to do though. I am running it in full auto mode.

Am I missing something? The manual has very detailed launch sequence instructions. However the landing instructions are not as well detailed. I'm not sure if I am supposed to translate (rotate) the shuttle to position for the deorbit burn and it is waitng for me to do that??? Or is it waiting for me to do something else?????

I than tried starting in orbit. But I get a problem deploying the KU band antenna. The message from mission control when I click on the switch is that the switch is locked. And I can not proceed further in the mission because it is waiting for the KU antenna to be deployed.

I remember somehow getting the shuttle to deorbit when I first bought it, but I don't remember how I did it. I do remember running into these same problems back then.

Can anyone that has played this game have any hints/suggestions!

I have heard that this game has bugs in it, but I don't know if what I am running into is a bug or if I am doing something wrong.

Am I the only one who cannot use the log to save the missions to come back to later? Without being able to save to the log, you can't pick up where you left off later! What am I doing wrong? This isn't much fun if you have to start all over again each time you play it. :cry:

Ibanez0711,

I don't have Shuttle running so I can't check the specific commands, but first you need to create a log. Then there is a setting for automatic or manual log update. I usally set it at auto, but I usally do a manual save before I quit the program. I know the log save command is next to the quit game command. Don't know if you have tried all of that alreasy?

Have you been able to complete the first test fight into orbit?

Well when you guys talked about orbiter i have to say that that game is cool to bad it is nearly imposible to fly a spaceshuttle misson that comes with it

plz people tell me how to take off the ground in mission 2? because there is about 500 things to push and touch

What cheat?, How do I get all missions

Oh and does anyone know where to get the manual and a guide if posible
