There is a read me file saying how to Install STS payloads into the newer version of orbiter, also 3.9.4 is not required it's compatible with 3.9.4 or higher version.
You can always try Shuttle fleet, it has payloads up to i believe STS-114 to STS-124.

Make sure you have Pylon MFD activated. Most of your errors are coming from that. Everything that makes up STS Payloads is controled by Pylon.

EDIT: And double check you install order. It takes some work to get Payloads to work correctly, but it's worth it.

No there isnt any other space shuttle addon, theres only 3. If you read the read me folder it will help you alot, nothing really doesnt need to be installed in order.

The order that you install the add-ons for STS Payloads IS important. If you can wait, I will post the order that works for me. Payloads is the best add-on for all payloads and on orbit ops from the beginning of the shuttle program up untill 1985 with STS-51-I. This is worth the effort if you can stick with it. We all know that Orbiter is not somthing that will give you instant gradification, anything that is worth doing will take some time and effort. Keep at it.

EDIT:Alright, I just installed Payloads to make sure this order works and it does. Basicly, its the order listed in the Installation of STSP v2 in the Add-on Docs folder that comes with Payloads. This was done on a clean install of Orbiter. First, make a new Orbiter folder with the basic package. Then follow this order. (the addons with * by them are not requied to run Payloads but are helpful to have and are compatible with Payloads)

Code:
Installed Add-ons:

01 * Absolute Killrot
02 * Joyride
03 * orbitersound3.5
05 LC39-EAFB 2006.3 - Hi-Res
06 Hi-res KSC
07 RunwayMarkers2006
08 launch_pad_lights by Brain Jones
09 ShuttleFleetV4.0.1
10 GPCMFDV4.0.5
11 STS_Payloads_version2.01

If you need the ATI card patch that is done after STS payloads. If you use Med-res KSC instead, there is a patch for it and is installed last.

Hope this helps. Other add-ons can be installed be some may cause Payloads to stop working. This list gives you the minimum to have a great shuttle experience with Payloads. If you have any more problems you know what to do.
(double check the manual... and if you still can't figure it out, post it)

First off, CAPS means you're yelling, and we here don't like that. Look at the M.6 archive and you'll figure out why. Second off, I know you're a noob, so I'll help. I got them (runway markers) off of AVSIM, where I get my Southwest Virtrual Airlines paints for FS9. Now though, they do not seem to be there.
