安装指南
Installing ORBITER is very straightforward if you follow these steps:
Create a new folder for ORBITER, for example \Program Files\Orbiter2006.
If a previous version of ORBITER is already installed on your computer, you should not install the new version into the same folder, because this could lead to file conflicts. You may want to keep your old installation until you have made sure that the new version works without problem. Multiple ORBITER installations can exist on the same computer.
Download the Base package into your new ORBITER folder and unzip with WinZip or an equivalent utility. Important: Take care to preserve the directory structure of the package (In WinZip, this requires to activate the "Use Folder Names" option).
After unzipping the package, make sure that your Orbiter folder contains the executable (Orbiter.exe) and, among other files, the Config, Meshes, Scenarios and Textures subfolders.
Run Orbiter.exe. This will bring up the ORBITER "Launchpad" dialog, where you can select video options and simulation parameters.
You are now ready to start ORBITER. Select a scenario from the Launchpad dialog, and click the "ORBITER" button!
If you run into problems during installation, you may want to check the Troubleshooting section of the FAQ.
To install additional high-resolution extension packages:
Before adding any optional packages and addons, install the base version of Orbiter as described above, and make sure everything works correctly.
Download the package from one of the Orbiter mirrors into the main Orbiter folder, and unzip.
Make sure to preserve the directory structure, as for the base package.
All extension packages from the main Orbiter download mirrors should end up in the Textures2 subdirectory. They are automatically recognised by Orbiter and don't need to be moved elsewhere.
Installing 3rd party Orbiter addon packages usually works the same way, but always check the provided readme files and installation documentation.
To de-install ORBITER:
Remove the Orbiter directory with all contents and subdirectories. ORBITER does not modify the registry or any system resources |
