Default Eagle Lander 3d

Kinda a flight sim.. This sim is a Lunar Lander Simulation program.

It "looks" good. Has anyone here played it and if so, did you like it?

Also has anyone played this Sim on Windows 7?

Much thanks.

That looks good also. I will try that. Thanks

The graphics on Eagle Lander seem more detailed though.

with orbiter you can go from launch to the moon to splashdown , lunar lander only gives you the moon landing. there is 2 different apollo set ups in orbiter amos and the regular get both one gives you 3d cockpit no working switches the other gives 2d cockpit with working switches. The real fun is docking, which you get to do in orbiter, they are working on the graphics.

I am mostly interested in Mercury/Gemini/Apollo stuff which I understand Orbiter 2010 has as mods/add-ons. I will have to check them out.

Anyone played "A-OK" which is a Mercury mission simulator? It is tough as it is closer to a simulator than a game.

just read the read me files and you'll do fine , you fly with num pad, at launch you are pretty much there for the ride, you can control flight at launch and in orbit. I've flown it all from mercury to shuttle, and beyond, there's alot of stuff and it don't take much space.
