I only just now finally understood why I couldn't seem to find the Shuttle Fleet add-on anywhere in Orbit Hangar, and the circumstances that led to it being pulled by the developer. Since a lot of threads about the SF add on seem to have been closed, both here and in other Orbiter-related communities, I hope I'm not getting myself into trouble by even bringing it up.

The fact is, I have a simple and, I hope, straightforward technical question. I want to install either the [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2821"]medium[/ame] or [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2811"]high[/ame] resolution KSC scenery, but both add-on say the Shuttle Fleet should be installed first. Since that is now impossible, how much of a problem does it pose if I want to install the KSC add-on anyway? Will non-Shuttle related launchers and scenarios work? If not, are their modifications I can make to the .cfg files to correct the problem? I would be interested in regard to both the 2010 and 2006 versions of Orbiter.

Naturally, I plan to go ahead and try the installations anyway, after saving copies of my working Orbiter folders. But I would be glad to hear what anyone else has experienced with this, and any possible tips or pointers.

I think that is merely because shuttle fleet brings its own KSC textures that would overwrite these, hence the heads-up to install it before this add-on. I'm not sure however. Your best bet is to just try it.
