OHM Better ISS

The IDA shouldn't be present on the ISS when a Shuttle is docked. Last time I checked in older versions, the Shuttle's docking orientation was OK (i.e. about 180° opposite the screenshot above) with just the PMA-only configuration

That is so weird. Can you post the log. I wonder if the meshes are in the wrong place

make sure the evaguys meshes are here: ISSEVA/SOLIDREDEVA

SetMeshVisibilityMode(AddMesh(oapiLoadMeshGlobal("ISSEVA/SOLIDREDEVA")), MESHVIS_ALWAYS); //Main ship mesh

Ok, will have a look and let you know...👍

Thank you very very much for all your efforted in helping me much appreciated...🤝

The ISSEVA Mesh folder, I just had to put that in the right place.

Yeah, this is a bit of a mystery.
The direction of the docking ports is correct for BrianJ's Crew Dragon and my DarkEnergy addons, I think the default Shuttle has the port oriented upside down.
As of v2.8 and before, I just used whatever orientation made the default shuttle dock correctly but as of v2.9 I corrected them for Crew Dragon.
If anyone can clear this up, I'd be appreciated

Once again thank you for such an awesome addon I'm really enjoying it... ;) (y)
 
So if you want the questairloack that has eva. you need to make this change to the cfg:

;This might cause strange visual issues... Use at your own risk!
HAS_QUEST = FALSE

BEGIN_ATTACHMENT
C 6.77 -6.7 -4.775 0 -1 0 0 0 1 EVA
C 2.18 -4.65 -4.75 0 1 0 0 0 1 QUEST
END_ATTACHMENT

v3.1 Released :)

A few small features:
  • Option to hide the IDAs for Shuttle-era PMA docking ports. Several folks have been asking about this, should fix the incorrect shuttle docking orientation bug.
  • The gap spanner is hidden with Quest.

Hi Max-Q

Awesome it works (y) just a question so, does these changes (HAS_IDAS = If this is false, the PMA docking ports will revert to the Shuttle-era configuration (No IDAs) with the use for @BrianJ SpaceX Dragon and for the Shuttle-era PMA docking ports to be change every time you use the different Vessel?
Or can changes be done, for both the ISS for the Shuttle-era and the ISS with IDAs be used at the same time?
 
I'd say the best thing to do would be make a second cfg for the shuttle era ports. Something like ISS_HD_STS.cfg with the HAS_IDAS value set to false.
Yes, the setting is persistent across all scenarios that have the ISS_HD vessel in them.
Setting the state of a docking port at scenario load vs vessel creation can be problematic, so I did it this way.

Awesome thank you😉👍 Made a second cfg for the Shuttle era ports, no issues on my side.
 
That mod looks amazing! I need an approved post to download it but then i'll immediately try it out

Hi everyone.

I am getting CTD when I try to run the default scenario of Better ISS.
I have already installed both requirements Canadarm2v4.zip and SSRMSD2016update.zip.

I have installed as well D3D9ClientR4.26-Orbiter2016.zip and XRSound-2.0.zip
Do I have to install another requirement?

Orbiter.log (attached) says
============================ ERROR: ===========================
Could not load vessel module: ISS_HD
[Vessel::LoadModule | .\Vessel.cpp | 5747]
===============================================================
============================ ERROR: ===========================
Could not load vessel module: SSRMSD
[Vessel::LoadModule | .\Vessel.cpp | 5747]
===============================================================

Screenshots of Modules and Config/Vessels:
the .dll and .cfg seem to be in the right place.

Don't know where to look for the problem.

I downloaded Orbiter2016 from here https://www.orbiter-forum.com/resources/orbiter-2016-core-zip-edition.5425/

Thanks in advance.

I assume orbiter works? You can run default scenarios.

Nothing looks wrong?

Default Orbiter scenarios work fine.
I've also tried this addons. They all work fine and look good.
  • crewdragon2022_230210.zip
  • falcon9_o2016_221115.zip
  • falconheavy_o2016_220707.zip

Although, I am having problems with these new addons I cannot get them to work.
  • Better ISS. As I mentioned, CTD in loading time.
  • DarkEnergy. Orbiter loads, but the mesh of the vessel isn't shown. Happens with all scenarios.
  • Light-Weight Lunar Lander. Orbiter loads, but the mesh of the vessel isn't shown. Happens with all scenarios.

They all throw something similar in orbiter.log, just as the log from Better ISS.

Weird. So can you open and default scnerio and add the dark energy/darkEnergy_Cargo as a vessel? If not post the log.

I can add a dark energy/darkEnergy_Cargo in a default scenario but the mesh of the darkEnergy_Cargo is not shown.

Here's a screenshot
This is the default scenario Delta-glider/Docked at ISS.scn
After it loaded, I added the dark energy/darkEnergy_Cargo with the Sceneario Editor. The screenshot shows that the current view is in fact the new vessel DarkEnergy but the mesh and textures of the vessel arent being shown. They should be right there in the middle of the screen.
I attached this Orbiter.log.

This logs shows something similar to the one of Better ISS. Could not load vessel
