Problem A bunch of Apollo problems

[swede]

I have a few problems with the Apollo addons.

1. Saturn rockets does not launch, and if they do they go straight up. Not like in the Shuttle sim where the computer controls the flight.

2. MFD says that the Apollo spacecrafts (CM/LM) is unsupported. Neither spacecrafts reacts when using RCS.

I have tried to find a solution by reading manuals etc, but I cannot seem to find any answer to my problems.

Anyone have a clue where to start searching for a solution?

Which Apollo add-on?

Which Apollo add-on?

It's the NASSP Apollo. I have used the 6.4.0 version and the patch 6.4.3 ontop of that. I have tried using it on several Orbiter versions with the same problem.

It's all the Apollo sceneries. It does not matter if I use the appropriate bat file for the lunar landings. The LM does not react to my RCS commands.

I might have missed some vital information somewhere, but I'm stuck I have not got a clue where to starts looking. The only possible option seem to delete all the files and start from scratch reading all the pdf's etc. But I've already done that twice no so it feels like I need some help to guide me in the right direction.

You have to activate the LM/CSM/CM's RCS systems using the checklist in the manual.

Thanks! I'll look into that when I'm home again from work. Time is a bit tight at the moment.

I also have a problem with Mir Space Station. When loading any of the Mir sceneries I get an error message. I saw on a previous thread that it does not have anything to do with missing files, but something else. Strange....

You have an object in the .scn file called "orlan" which isn't installed correctly (or at all).

That might be the problem! I havent installed the russian space suit yet, so that mighjt be the solution. I'll try that.

Regardning the NASSP Apollo, I have desided to skip that for a while and use the AMSO instead which do work perfectly.

Thanks for the help!

The Orlan spacesuit did the trick. By installing it, all works perfectly. Thanks!
