Building parameters

[MJR]

What should a building have in the configuation file because I made one, and I am used to making spacecraft configuration files? How ahould the scenario look like also?

 

[Urwumpe]

what kind of building?

If you have no animations or other active work, you can make the mesh part of the surface base configuration file.

 

[MJR]

It is four stories high with four windows per storie. It is also a cubish/square shape. How do I make the mesh part pf the surface base configuration file? Thank you for the help. If I want to upload it to obithangar, what would be in the zip file?

 

[Urwumpe]

Just read the Orbiter Manual, the last part of the manual describes how to make surface bases.

 

[MJR]

SDK?

 

[Urwumpe]

SDK?

No, the normal manual.

Look for BLOCK or MESH.

 

[MJR]

Ok, I will look over it and see. Thanks.

 

[MJR]

Its not showing up. I put it in the Earth's configuration base folder.

 

[TSPenguin]

Or try the very good Surface Base Wizard by ar81. Especialy usefull for large Bases.

[MJR]

Any one know why it is not showing up when I run a scenario?

 

[computerex]

Any one know why it is not showing up when I run a scenario?

There could be a number of reasons, mesh file missing, invalid base configuration file, invalid location, bad scale, anything. Can you provide more information? Better yet, read the manual. Look at examples, modify existing files, and read base tutorials. Try to find the error yourself before posting here, it makes you think and explore. If you just can't get it after trying for at least a day or two, then post here.

 

[MJR]

I made a base. Here is the configuration file. I based it off of some things from KSC.

I read the manual too. That is how I got this far.

 

[n0mad23]

I haven't done any bases yet, but Orbiter's configuration files for spacecraft/objects is pretty darned similar.

I see you have a BEGIN_OBJECTLIST without having an END_SURFTILELIST first. Later, the opposite happens as well (no end_object).

Make sure when things begin, they end as well.

 

[MJR]

Ok. Thanks for pointing that out. I will change that.

 

[MJR]

I changed it to this and it still does not show up on Earth.

No 'end' statement between the two. Make sure all 'begin' statements have an 'end' one, too. And they need to come before another 'begin' statement.

I do not know if this is what is causing my problem, but, allthe files for Orbiter that I download somehow are in the for of Microsoft Outlook, so I have to open it with NotePad. When I make a file, it is just a NotePad file. How do I change all the other files to the origanal format of NotePad?

 

[Urwumpe]

You can't use the block type "dev_building". Orbiter does not know it. You instead need to use a MESH block.

For example like that:

MESH
    FILE vab
    OWNMATERIAL
    POS -6267 1 2005
    ROT 14
    SHADOW
    PRELOAD
END

 

[MJR]

Next to file, do I put the name of the building?
