XR1 No Cockpit, no ship.

[Yllod]

Hello!
I've recently updated my laptop to Windows 7 and decided to get back to space. Downloaded Orbiter 2010, OrbiterSound 3.5 and uMMU 2.0 and then unzipped at the parent orbiter path the XR1 and XR2 from altea.
The scenarios are ok, but I cannot get any external views or cockpits, nor the 2D nor the virtual one in any of the ships.
In case it helps the DG displays some blank (transparent really) spaces in the cockpit view, as if the panel supposed to be there were removed and you could see through.

I would really like to use the Altea fleet, way cool, but I'm going to need some help doing it. Tried searching the forum and could not find anything about it.

Hope you can help.

It sounds like your XR versions do not match your Orbiter version. Please make sure you are running the P1 ("Patch 1") release of Orbiter 2010; the new XR versions were built for that release. Please make sure you are running the latest XR versions as well.

EDIT:
In addition, please make sure you are running the latest graphics driver for your video card (likely from www.nvidia.com or www.ati.com). In any case, please post your Orbiter.log file contents so we can determine what your exact video card model is. The fact that you are seeing this:

...makes it look like this may not be an XR issue at all.
