Problem reciving error message for satsat.dll - Orbiter-Forum

marcoplesnicar · 08-11-2012, 12:46 PM

Hi everybody,
i have a problem while launching orbiter: when it comes to the point of loading the saturn's moons appears a message stating that's it's impossible to find
??OSTAOBJ@@QAE@PAXHN@Z from dynamic link Satsat.dll.
Does anybaody knows how can solve the problem since i can't load any saturn moon but for Hyperion?

that sort of error normally occurs when a dll has been compiled against a newer version of orbiter and you have an older one, e.g. you have orbiter 2010 but the dll has been compiled against 2010P1.

What addon has the satsat.dll?

I would suggest replacing the satsat.dll you have with a clean copy from the appropriate Orbiter package for your version. I assure you the release versions do not have linker issues with them and I recall some time ago a third-part satsat.dll which caused major issues being bundled with an addon, but can't remember which addon.

I remember that Deepstar had a replacement dll for one of the outer planets so that could be it?

it was deepstar add-on indeed. with the original file it works perfectly, thank you.

Given that this problem seems to show up repeatedly, is there a way to mark this addon as incompatible with Orbiter 2010 on orbithangar, to avoid future recurrences?

80Mileshigh is still an active member - maybe we could ask him (nicely) to edit the Orbithangar entry?
It's such a cool ship, and I don't really get why the .dll was in the package anyway.

My apologies, a new version has been on my to-do list for a long time and these problems had escaped my attention.

I'm away from home until late September so I've simply removed the add-on from Orbit Hangar. At least that will put an end to these recurring reports. I'll re-upload a new version upon my return.

Thanks 80MilesHigh for working on this. Unfortunately for me, it comes after my hard-drive died and I'm reinstalling all my addons. Now I have to wait until September to get the epic Deepstar... I suppose I can survive until then unless someone could send me theirs?
