Arche in Orbiter[edit]
Arche was first introduced into Orbiter with the add-on jupiter_v.zip in August 2003. Note that Arche is provided by jupiter_v.zip and outplanets-050125.zip as S/2002-J 1. To simulate it as Arche, the following changes need to be made.
- File:S2002_J1.cfg:
- change the filename to Arche.cfg
- change the name in the comment line in the top line to Arche (S/2002-J1, Jupiter)
- line 3, change NAME = to Arche
- Last line, change the name of Base1 = to Arche
- File:J1-Station.cfg
- change the filename to Arche-station.cfg
- Line 3, change the name to Arche-Station
- File:Jupiter_S2002J1.scn
- change the filename to Jupiter-Arche.scn
- Line 2, change J1 Station to Arche Station
- Find the GL-01 ship, change STATUS Landed S2002-J1 to Landed Arche
- Change BASE J1-Station:1 to Arche-Station:1
- File:S2002-J1.tex, change filename to Arche.tex
- File:S2002-J1M.BMP, change filename to ArcheM.BMP
