SSBB 4.1 never launches

[Piet Barber]

I have tried just about everything with Space Station Building Blocks. No matter what I try, I can not get the scenarios to load. The version i have is space station building blocks version 4.1b; i downloaded it again from orbiter hangar again just in case.

1) Using Generic Mode Enabler -- which is a really great program!
2) Installed Big Space Plane 4.0 and Space Plane 2.0
3) I have Vinka's spacecraft.dll

Symptoms: When loading the scenarios:

Loading the scenario with the big space plane and space plane 2.0, I get this at the end of my orbiter.log file:

Module Neptune.dll [API v.050206]
VSOP87(B) Neptune: Precision 1e-006, Terms 391/2024
Module Triton.dll [API v.060425]
Finished initialising world
Module Spacecraft3.dll [API v.060425]
**** WARNING: Mesh not found: .\Meshes\.msh
**** WARNING: Mesh not found: .\Meshes\.msh
**** WARNING: Mesh not found: .\Meshes\.msh
**** WARNING: Mesh not found: .\Meshes\.msh
**** WARNING: Mesh not found: .\Meshes\.msh

When I load the regular scenario without the spaceplanes, I get this error in my orbiter.log.

Module Triton.dll [API v.060425]
Finished initialising world
Module Spacecraft3.dll [API v.060425]

i've incountered this problem before when loading station.scn, its because orbiter cant find a mesh for a block that uses spacecraft3 (most likely BArm1) because that block isnt in the add on.
a solution is to delete that block from the scenario.

Can you post the scenario file you're using?

Make sure you install SSBB 4 before you install 4.1. That cleared up the issue for me.

Took the words out of my mouth (fingers?). It seems you need SSBB 4.0 to allow the SSBB 4.1 stuff to work right.

I think 4.1 is a patch, from memory.
