Question Shuttle Fleet 4.3 and ENERGY Project Questions

[Indiana Snake]

Hey, I'm obviously new so forgive me if this is the wrong subforum.

Shuttle Fleet 4.3 questions

I accidentally deleted my documents for Shuttle Fleet 4.3 and I need to know a few things... How do I, or can I, turn on all the MFD's in the Shuttle Fleet 4.3 virtual cockpit? Oh, sometimes when I get up and deploy my antenna, solar, grappling arm, and other arrays, when I retract them I can't close my payload bay doors. I just hear a sort of jamming sound. Also, I can't seem to add payloads. There is no Payload menu in the scenario editor.

ENERGY Project questions

How do I edit the payload for this rocket? I get it up and go into the scenario editor, but when I click on the payload thing, my sim crashes. The screen goes white and I get an "Orbiter2006.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close". Also, how do I add cargo to the Buran2 when I have it attached to an ENERGIA launcher? It doesn't show a Payload menu in the Scenario Editor.

Thanks in advance

Firstly, to the forums!

Someone with far more knowledge than I will probably be along in a while, but I think for the documents, you should look in the original files that you downloaded for the Shuttle Fleet, and if you don't have those, you may want to redownload the file again.

About adding payloads, I'm not sure, but I think you need to edit the .scn (scenario) text file manually. How it's done, I'm not so sure!

1. MFDs - Check the Orbiter manual section that talks about the stock Atlantis

2. Definetly get the Shuttle Fleet manuals (and read though them).

3. Most addons do not use a dialog to edit payloads. So learning how to edit scenario files is a must.

4. Someone else will have to tackle the Energia and Buran issues.

5. Welcome and good luck. :thumbup:

Where can I find out how to do that?

I agree, though Energia includes an awesome payload manager that should definitely be used. I'm not sure why that's crashing, maybe you need to install Payload Manager separately?

I looked on Orbithangar but didn't find it. Can you give me a link?
