I just downloaded Jekka and Momo's Ariane 6 addon. I wanted to be able to launch the Zvezda included in thorton's ISS 3.2v. I followed the instructions in the .pdf file included in the Ariane 6 addon (page 11) to launch Zvezda. When I tested the scenario, everything went fine. After 1st stage separation, I pressed the "F" key to jettison the fairing. Then a CTD happened. Orbiter .log below:

Try re-downloading ISS v3.2. This is not a problem with the Ariane 6.

You've got something very broken in the scenario, again still with Zvezda.

Can you post the scenario?

The Zvezda in question is Zvezda-J AFAIR, you have to search the francophone site for it.
 
^You mean this one? I just tried it and a CTD happened.

My reading skills are awful, I retract what I wrote; am rechecking my installation.

EDIT: rechecking complete. Turns out I cannot help you since I tried Ariane-6 a long time ago (in 2006-P1) and since then deleted it (cannot remember why, probably for lack of interest). Sorry for the previous misleading post.
