Hello "DON"
I have a display problem BEAM Module
(With the old version everything was fine)

He must remove the old version?
or install v2 over and overwrite files?

Nothing with BEAMv2 I have no textures display module

Post what you have for the BEAM in your scenario. The old and new shouldn't conflict.

Hi there, just checked the Beam on my ISS and it works fine and I'm running windows 8 with Nvidia graphics card it runs fine, looks great a lot better than the original Thanks Don great job

 

[Flow]

Working perfectly for me in Linux Don.

Fantastic job as always - can't wait for the launch of this now!

Hello
Sorry for my bad English.
With the old version of the BEAM 23/01/2013 everything was OK
With the new version V2 23/03/2016 BEAM BEAM module is not visible (with or without D3D9)

I tested with a simple scenario below suprimant maximum modules (download BEAMv2 today)
Right, BEAM exists but is not visible!

Pappy,

Change your first scenario line for Beam to:

Bigelow/BEAM:spacecraft/spacecraft3

 

[pappy2]

hello "flow"
actually the problem comes from the command line below the script rectified everything OK thank you for your help

@ "Hutch" you should write in the "Add-on Docs" file with a short sentence an example scenario to insert

Great addon, it is much better and more complete than the previous version

good job !!

 

[Flow]

You're welcome Pappy - glad it fixed it for you.

I think most addon developers assume that users have a working knowledge of Orbiter - this is quite reasonable.

All the ones I've been in contact with are brilliant in offering their help if you're stuck and asking on the forum will always get you help.

Don has packaged this addon in a slightly different way using sub folders specifically named for the Bigelow BEAM - this for me is a brilliant way of keeping track of what you have installed.

Thanks again for this Don.

It works better, when you have the BEAM docked with the Tranqulity. Then it docks by itself when let go by the SSRMS.

But then you have to have the tranquility docked to Unity and not attached. Orbiter law states, " thou shall't not dock to an attached vessel."

Yeah hate that law, could do so much if it was abolished that's why all my modules on my ISS are docked

 

[Kyle]

I wonder if that's something that we could suggest for a future version of Orbiter (to be able to dock to an attached vessel). Probably not as simple as I make it sound though.
