I'm asking everyone here who has played Orbiter have you been able to get any add-ons from http://www.avsim.net? because I haven't been able to and if anyone can direct me to an alternate place to dl I would much appriciate it.

Celestia is free, yes. However, it's not so much a game as an interactive planetarium. You can arbitrarily visit most stars in the sky, and, depending on the add-in, you can visit the actual planets orbiting some of those stars. (By default, you can visit all the planets in our solar system and a few of the asteroids.)
