Addon Problems

[jeffwbest]

Um...... The things i download for Orbiter won't work what do i do?

 

[Arrowstar]

You'll need to be a bit more specific. What did you download? What have you tried? What are you attempting to do when whatever it is that doesn't work... doesn't work?

More details, please!

 

[tl8]

Please give us more information. What addons are you trying to use?
Did you unzip them properly.

Please use a more descriptive title next time.

Um.... im Extracting them

Addons K-Krawl-v9 UltimateShuttleGuide ESA_Nerva_Shuttle_Project_Freedom_v0.9_Part2

 

[Kaito]

Extract it to your main orbiter folder. For example, mine is C:\Program Files\Orbiter

 

[jeffwbest]

They have Scenarios in then tho!

 

[Kaito]

Okay, what file EXACTLY did you download?

 

[jeffwbest]

K-Krawl-v9 UltimateShuttleGuide ESA_Nerva_Shuttle_Project_Freedom_v0.9_Part2

 

[Kaito]

Give the link to where you downloaded it from

 

[jeffwbest]

There all from http://www.orbithangar.com/index.php

 

[Kaito]

Can you give a link to the page you got it from?

 

[jeffwbest]

UM................. What websites do you recamend?(for addons)

 

[Kaito]

You're missing what I'm saying
I want a LINK to the FILE that you DOWNLOADED. I know its on Orbit Hangar, but I can do anything unless I have the FILE

 

[jeffwbest]

Im putting them in my C:\Games\Orbiter\Scenarios folder It says terminating critacl file or sumthing it says see orbiter log for more details

 

[Kaito]

*facepalm*
you STILL haven't answered my question...
Okay, whenever you extract something, if its in a zip folder, for Orbiter, just extract it to your Orbiter folder. Thats it. Everything should go in their proper places. Now, Your orbiter.log is in your orbiter folder. It just says Orbiter. Copy and paste the entire thing in here.

What is the name of the zip file that you are trying to extract.

Also does orbiter work with out that addon

That is does the default scenarios work?

Ok I am guessing that this ShuttleFleet. What version is it, Have you followed the install instructions in the PDF.

 

[Piper]

When you extract the files to Orbiter, do you have the "Use folder names" and "Overwrite existing files" options checked? If you don't, check them, and then try extracting the files again.

As for the files, Kaito is looking for this:

[ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=1328"]Shuttle Crawler Rollout ver9[/ame]
[ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2490"]Ultimate Space Shuttle Experience[/ame]
[ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=1828"]ESA Nerva Shuttle Project Freedom Part2[/ame]

The Nerva ones are from an outdated version of Orbiter, which is probably why they don't work (also, you only posted part 2, did you install part 1?).

 

[jeffwbest]

Do i extract Ziped folders? How do i change ziped to the book icon thing?

 

[garyw]

The same way you unzipped the main orbiter installation.
