OHM Donamy and Thorton's ISS for Orbiter 2016

Every now and then I have fun trying to recreate the current ISS configuration with "Donamys and Thorten's ISS". I love these complex models especially because we could always adapt it to the real current configuration.

With Hutchison66's Nauka (MLM) and Rasswet (MRM-1) Add-Ons, which he already published in 2016, you come pretty close to the newer configuration of the Russian part. Even ERA movements work.

In case any of you is interested, you need to install in this order (All Spacecraft3).

1. MRM-Rossvet---ISS_A2Z 2016-02-23
2. MLM update for MRM module 2016-02-25
3. MLM-NAUKA_Module for ISS 2016-02-26

For the correct alignments and rotations, some changes to the configuration files are necessary (in ...\Config\Spacecraft), which I have zipped in "Nauka_config.zip".

I have my relevant sections of the scenery in the Textfile "Scenario_Changes.txt".

Both work at least for me, you may have different configurations, so don't overwrite anything, make copies.

Unfortunately we don't have the iRosa panels and no Prichal (so I docked Soyuz MS-23 direct to Nauka). I'm not able to model those, unfortunately.

Maybe someone will model Nauka and Prichal for "Better ISS".

Cheers, Thomas

Hi all Orbinauts,
I really enjoy the highly detailed ISS, I've gone through with a fresh clean install of Orbiter2016, D3D9Client 4.26 (and the necessary runtimes), Vinka's Spacecraft and the required Generic Vessel. Prior to loading I've applied the symbolic links and it all fires up. But the bug for me is that when I come out of the scenario it always crashes Orbiter! After looking into it, it seems to stem from 'xves.dll' file that is required by Generic Vessel. It seems the be looking for missing payloads or something? After looking through this thread, it appeared someone else experienced the same thing and resolved it by updating the xves.dll. Now I'm no coder and can't seem to find an updated version of this xves.dll anywhere...?
Please can anyone help me resolve this issue?

Secondly, I would like to add the iROSA panels too, trying to match the current configuration. I have found the mesh & texture for the panels. Once again I see someone else has successfully managed to attach them, but I can't find any information of how to attach them. Some help with this would be much appreciated?

(If there is anyone out there?:alien:)
