Cassiopee doesn't appear

[clickypens]

Hi

I realize that this really probably isn't where I should be asking this, seeing as how this addon doesn't come from OrbitHangar. I tried emailing No Matter and haven't gotten a response, so I figured I could ask here.

Anyway, on to the problem. I am building a space station, and would like Cassiopee to be the main/first component. The thing is that whenever I try to load Cassiopee, it doesn't appear. Be it the scenario included, or in Scenario Editor, it doesn't show up. I exists: I can dock to it and everything; I just can't see it.

I've tried deleting the addon and reinstalling it and it doesn't help anything. I can't find anything in the SCN file that would tell me anything, and orbiter.log doesn't turn up anything unusual.

Anyway that I can fix this?
Any and all help would be appreciated.
Cheers

Did you make a mesh file linked to the scenario?

I had the same problem, how I solved it is in this topic:

Well, I can't remmeber how I did Cassiopee but try something like that:
Open your scenario file and modify the cassiopee definition.
Cassiopee: Spacecraft/spacecraft3
...
END
do the same for saseva:
saseva:Spacecraft/spacecraft3
...
END

okay, I just tried that, and Cassiopee does appear (whoohee!) but Saseva still doesn't. When I went to change focus to Saseva, I got a CTD, really not that important since I don't even know what Saseva is made for ( ), but I'd still like for it to show up. Any suggestions?

Saseva isn't a Spacecraft3 vessel as far as I know.
Try this:
Find Config/saseva.cfg
Copy that file to config/Vessels/
That should work.

I tried that and get a CTD when I launched the scenario. in the log, it goes right up until it launches spacecraft3.dll and just stops.

I know that saseva is causing the problem, because I edited it out of the scn and it loaded just fine, but whenever it's there, it CTD.

Hate to say this but this should be moved to the Addon Support forum.

oh okay. sorry about that. I really wasn't sure where to put it to begin with.

I still can't get saseva to show up, anybody have any ideas?

nevermind. it just showed up. I ran the scenario again, just as I had been, and not only did I not get a CTD, saseva was there just as happy as could be.
thanks your y'alls help.

still more problems with Cassiopee.
I can't get it to dock. I launched it with the XR5 with the Universal Cargo Deck and that went well. But, when I tried to dock with it, I noticed that I just went straight through the port. All of them. So then I said to hell with it, and tried to automatically dock it with the scenario editor.
Much to my dismay, when I opened up the window for Cassiopee, the Docking button was ghosted out and I couldn't choose it.
Saseva docks fine.

there are three dock ports listed in the Docklist in the config file
Also, there the file config under /Orbiter/Config/Vessels is blank.
What could make it do this? Is there anyway I can fix it?

I really hate to do this, but I really don't know what to do and want to get this working.
I tried copying the regular config file into the /Vessels folder, and I get the same result. I don't know enough about modifying Orbiter to fix this.

Any help guys? Thanks in advance.
