Problem Orbiter crashes when switching ships with F3

d2k · Apr 26, 2014

My Orbiter installation crashes when switching ships with F3. Recently I installed the both Stargate Ships SGU and Manifest. As far as I can recall I only installed one thing more: A level 14 Earth Texture. To be more detailed on this, something I installed wanted to replace other stuff which could have been config files. I tried to debug this situation but I could not find what replaced what since I'm not sure if I installed another thing beside those I mentioned above.

Heres my orbiter.log but I'm not sure if it helps. Those two warnings in the log ain't the thing causing the game crashes. :compbash2:
I can start most scenarios without a crash like I'm used to but when I select a different ship or a Ummu the game crashes.

Please Probe, don't punish me with a re-installation of orbiter ...guess how many addons I run on this one? Trillions!

Thanks in advance! :thumbup:

Oh boy, This loads? I don't think I've ever seen a log with so many addons in it.
These are all the lines which concern me. Their API versions don't match your obiter version. That doesn't mean they won't work, they're just the things to look at:

Code:

I left out the default planet modules. Most of their api codes don't match, but that's only because they haven't needed to be changed. Also I moved those last 2 entries to the bottom to highlight them. Their API is higher. They were compiled for a beta version. Using them with the current orbiter (Orbiter 2010-P1 or [v.100830]) is probably going to cause problems.

In the end, I'm not a programmer. It could just be the number of modules is breaking something somewhere. It could be one of the modules I highlighted above calling a function that doesn't exist anymore (or yet...). I'm not sure, but hopefully I've given you some kind of starting point. Its a shame orbiter doesn't produce any kind of dump or stack trace when it crashes.

Solved!

Thanks a billion times Jango! I'm so happy, I could build a Space station right now

The module which caused the crashes when switching ships was (in my arrangement of modules) this one here: SubOrbMFD

I knew it was suborb MFD as soon as I read the title.
Sure enough...

I had the same problem a while ago.
