OHM DG-Launcher (Russian Federation) v1.02

I'm not sure, I usually check this, but I might have forgotten. I will try that, thanks.

The problem with the SMOKE_GEN modules is most likely that they were compiled in DEBUG mode rather than RELEASE mode, causing them to depend to rely on debug versions of their dependencies.

A quick recompile of the modules in RELEASE mode ought to fix it.

For now a download of MSVCR90D.dll should fix the problem temporarily: http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr90d

Didn't work-still no smoke for me :beathead:

Did you try putting the MSVCR90D.dll file in your root Orbiter folder? That usually clears up any dependency problems for me.

Could it possibly be a bug in Velcro rockets caused by Orbiter 2010? Because I can't seem to get smoke on any of the included velcro scenarios and it looks like Fixerger's attached pic shows he might be having the same problem.

There might be something to that.

I just tried the test Atlantis Velcro mission and there was no SRB smoke, just a weird exhaust texture I've never seen before.

Yes it's in the root directory.

Let's be clear, you don't have particle effects using Velcro Rockets under Orbiter 2010. It's why I needed additionnal .dll modules (implemented in the scenarios as dummy invisible & almost weightless ships) to bypass that limitation. Recompiled "release" .dll will be available in next versions (1.01 for the russian DGL).

Ok guys, I've recompiled the 2 DLLs following step by step Computerex hail instructions given in the part 1 of the BombMFD tutorial. Still works very well on my comp, I hope it will work for everybody now. The .dll are three times bigger than before (60k vs 20k), so I guess there are more "materials" inside...

(don't forget to click "Yes", overwrite all when you unzip the files )

That's got it. At least for down in the lower atmosphere. I didn't have time to watch it all the way out into space, but now, once it got off the ground, there was a spray of particles and particle exhaust as one would expect, and it looks good too. Thanks.

 

[N_Molson]

AAh, these are excellent news !!! :speakcool:

Watch out for a v1.02 update of the NA Launcher this week, it seems that it's exactly the same issue

 

[Wonderer]

Who cares about lift off when we have smoke :woohoo:

For me it works all the way to orbit

 

[N_Molson]

Now updated to v1.02, should be Orbiter 2010-P1 compatible. Please let me know if you encounter problems (don't forget the Orbiter.log). :tiphat:

particleGEN

First of all, great work, thanks :thumbup:

got a little issue with the particleGEN, whenever I raise the PADBIAS on the core unit to put it on a launchpad the smoke starts as soon as I load the scenario, any way to avoid that?
Same with the US-launcher.

Otherwise works perfect for me.

I donwloaded this addon few weeks ago. A must have!
But now I have some problems: when I want to change the place of the launcher+DGIV, the rocket ignite but does not liftoff.

Do you know where does it comes from?

Thanks you!

 

[N_Molson]

I'm going to update that one too, especially since DanSteph will release a D3D9 compatible version of the DG-IV. Quite overloaded right now, but I don't forget it !

 

[OrbiterSpore]

Hello.
I'd like to ask something.
I'm getting some very low FPS during the very start of the launch. When the camera doesn't show the DGL-BlockB, it has good FPS (35-50 >), but as it starts showing DGL-BlockB, the FPS drops to charming < 7 FPS.

Computer specs:Windows 7, 4 GB RAM, Intel Dual Core Celeron CPU E3200 @ 2.40GHz and 2.40GHz, nVidia GeForce 9500 GT

Is there anything i can do?

 

[N_Molson]

I assume you are using the D3D7 inline client (for DGIV compatibility) ?

The problem is that my models were quite poly-heavy. It should run flawlessly with the D3D9 Client though. Notice that DanSteph said he would fix the DG-IV to make it D3D9-compatible. That would be the best possible fix.

What I can suggest is to use the XR-1 instead, while we wait for that fix. Yes I know, its not the same ship, but...
