HELP! I need somebody....not just anybody....HELP!


Hi, I am encountering a problem regarding the replacement of LC-39 Pad and Launch tower. I honestly hate the default LC-39, looks pretty ugly. So I decided to replace it with something which looks ultra realistic. I tried downloading LC 39 EAFB 2006.3, but the problem is, when I tried to place it in canaveral.cfg, the shuttle ends up floating in mid air with no pad or tower. I also installed Hi-Res KSC but the launch tower looks like it's missing a mesh and texture, looks incomplete. Even if it is incomplete, it wouldn't be the type of LC 39 I want, I want it ultra realistic and accurate. Can anyone here please tell me how to replace the default Launch Tower and Pad 39B for Orbiter 2010, ESPECIALLY the launch tower? Help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Diggin' the Beatles reference. Cute.

Anyway, there are a few ways to improve the looks of the KCS launch sites, but it may take some digging around with the search function (there are a few threads in the forums already).

The super simple easy process would be to grab Thorton's excellent [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3737"]International Space Station v.3.2[/ame]

You will also need David413's shuttle fleet (do a google/whatev search for simviation shuttle fleet, latest rev is 4.8 I think).

A handy follow on is Donamy's [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=5633"]US ISS A to Z v.3[/ame]

As in all things, Read The Friendly Manual!

Shuttle fleet is pretty cool, but with the added features of thorton's addon gives it max-Q effects on liftoff, and contrails from the wingtips during various stages of the re-entry.

As for the launch tower, it's all there, and automated. The launch sequence starts around T-12 minutes or so.

dgatsoulis has a great LC-39 Pad replacement that doesn't require any other add-ons. I'll point this thread out to him so he can zip it up and attach here or something.

Unfortunately, I did a major cleanup a few weeks ago and deleted some projects that I had no interest in anymore. The launchpad was one of them.

New Orbiter beta has very good looking Pad39! It`s not fully functional yet, i think...
also Edwards AFB also is cool with new terrain\elevation support.

Well, the I LOVE The ISS launch tower - Thanks! Looks great. But here's my problem: I want the default Orbiter 2010 Launch tower cfgs, meshes and textures to be replaced with the EXACT ones like in the ISS addon. I usually test it in the scenario "Atlantis satellite Launch" or "Atlantis Launch at Sunrise". Please send me the codes and what I need to replace, and the default canaveral.cfg file fresh from the installed package, because I somehow edited mine earlier and forgot to create a backup. Thanks.

I'm at work at the moment (lunch break), so I can't go into too much detail, but it seems you may need to search the forums for details on how to use slat's pad 39A (and B?). I seem to recall that there is a trick to getting it in place and everything working (and looking) properly.

As far as your "original" canaveral.cfg. Take a look at [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=4704"]Launch Complex 39 Fully built out[/ame]
It should have most of what you need (and maybe something you might be interested in).

When I installed Launch Complex 39 fully built out, I get a blank launchpad so my shuttle is floating in midair.

I remember! You will need to manually comment out sections of the canaveral.cfg file to select which launch pad you are using. It's in the readme.

So what exactly should I type? Is it possible for you to send me the codes? Thanks

---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 PM ----------

Do we actually replace the text "OWNMATERIAL" with the placed file (The rocket)?

Lol I'm quite clueless at this...I really want to know how to comment out the sections...the readme isn't clear enough

There's two parts to getting the LC-39 included with the ISS v3.2 add-on to work.

The first is to add this to the scenario (*.scn) that you want it in:

Code:
LC39:ISSR\LC39
  STATUS Landed Earth
  POS -80.6041380 28.6082950 ;39A
  ;POS -80.6208780 28.6271250 ;39B
  RSS 0 1.0000 -1
  WR 0 0.0000 1
  VA 0 0.0000 1
  TC 0 0.0000 1
  PS_LVL 1.0000
END

The second is to either delete or comment (using a semi-colon, ;, in front of each line) out these lines in Canaveral.cfg:

Code:
MESH ; Pad 39B tower
	FILE KSC_3
	POS -11830 0 5280
	ROT 178
	TEX Cape18
	SHADOW
	PRELOAD
END
MESH ; Pad 39B base
	FILE KSC_4
	POS -11830 0 5280
	ROT 178
	TEX Cape19
	SHADOW
	PRELOAD
END

Still nothing. :beathead:
Are you sure you edited the right scenario file? Also here's the proper POS values for either 39B or 39A:

Code:
  POS -80.6041380 28.6082950 ;39A
  POS -80.6208880 28.6271650 ;39B
That's for the LC39 vessel. These are for the shuttle vessel:

Code:
  POS -80.6040380 28.6083600 ;39A
  POS -80.6208840 28.6271820 ;39B

If you want to launch from 39A, you copy only the 39A values. If you want to launch from 39B, you copy only the 39B values.

I used it on the default Atlantis Satellite Launch scn

---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 PM ----------

Turns out better, but not fully satisfied. I end up getting an HD-looking Launch pad, but I end up with a Launch Tower I do not like. And the alignment of the Shuttle, it is too much to the left that it does not stand a correct position on the pad.

---------- Post added 05-03-14 at 12:34 AM ---------- Previous post was 05-02-14 at 11:51 PM ----------

Now the problem gets worse. First, when I tried to replace the pads to the ones from the ISS pads in the default Launch scenarios, the meshes and textures of the pads just double. And when i reinstalled LC39 fully built out, the satellite Launch scenario closed orbiter due to a critical error, and the sunrise Launch still works fine, but a new problem: The Apollo 17 Launch Tower for the Saturn 5 is on top of the Pad too, poking out the shuttle meshes. I'll upload the files here, and please edit it for me as soon as possible. Thanks

I want my launch pad to end up with something like this:
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqW-_GYZMlw"]"Take Her to The Sea" - An Orbiter Film - YouTube[/ame]
Thanks.

I'm 99% sure that both of those are from the previously mentioned ISS by thorton, but I could be mistaken. But the Max-Q effects lead me in that direction.

As far as why you have launch pads stepping on one another is that they haven't been commented out (as directed).

In the cfg you provided you leave the stock hardstand and tower, as well as Kev's Apollo era towers. Commented out is Kev's Shuttle era tower.
Code:

If I understand what you want here, it needs to look like this
Code:
;MESH Pad 39A stock tower
;FILE KSC_3
;POS -9730 0 6910
;ROT 180
;TEX Cape18
;SHADOW
;PRELOAD
;END
;MESH Pad 39A stock hardstand
;FILE KSC_4
;POS -9730 0 6910
;ROT 180
;TEX Cape19
;SHADOW
;PRELOAD
;END
MESH ; Pad 39A (Space Shuttle)
FILE K-LC-39-Rep-v2
OWNMATERIAL
POS -9700 63 6920
ROT 270
PRELOAD
END
;MESH Pad 39A (Clean Pad)
;FILE K-Apollo-17-LC39
;OWNMATERIAL
;SHADOW
;ROT 90
;POS -9676 21 6958
;PRELOAD
;END
;MESH Pad 39A tower (Saturn V)
;FILE K-Apollo-17-Tower
;OWNMATERIAL
;SHADOW
;ROT 270
;POS -9730 83 6910
;PRELOAD
;END

And for this to work you would of course need to have [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2590"]Default LC-39 Replacement Ver2[/ame]

Of this addon you really only need the mesh file and textures don't concern yourself with the config files, as they would overwrite what you are custonizing anyway.

Turns out better, but not fully satisfied. I end up getting an HD-looking Launch pad, but I end up with a Launch Tower I do not like. And the alignment of the Shuttle, it is too much to the left that it does not stand a correct position on the pad.

You can use the scenario editor to nudge the shuttle around geographically (as in change the lat/long). Then save the scenario (also using scenario editor) and name it something like "My custom launch" or whatever.

Man, it still did not work.

The "Terminating after critical error" message still appeared

And I forgot to give the Sunrise scn (It's the one in the pic with the funny-looking launch pad):

The Atlantis Satellite Launch scn still did not work

---------- Post added at 08:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:17 AM ----------

I reinstalled Orbiter and now the program turned into a corrupted file, can't work, and also the satsat.dll

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------

OK now I deleted everything and reinstalled from square one again, and everything is back to normal

---------- Post added 05-04-14 at 08:19 AM ---------- Previous post was 05-03-14 at 09:19 AM ----------

What I meant by everything is back to normal is that it all is back into its default setting. I am stuck with the default launch pad and seriously want to know how to replace the launch tower.

Have you downloaded this? [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2590"]Default LC-39 Replacement Ver2[/ame]
If yes then... DO NOT use the supplied config/earth/base/canaveral.cfg that come with it, you don't need it. All you really want is the mesh and textures. I'll show you why.

Find your canaveral.cfg and delete this;

Code:
MESH ; Pad 39B tower
	FILE KSC_3
	POS -11830 0 5280
	ROT 178
	TEX Cape18
	SHADOW
	PRELOAD
END
MESH ; Pad 39B base
	FILE KSC_4
	POS -11830 0 5280
	ROT 178
	TEX Cape19
	SHADOW
	PRELOAD
END

Replace it with this;

Code:
MESH ; Pad 39A (Space Shuttle)
  FILE K-LC-39-Rep-v2
	OWNMATERIAL
	POS -9700 63 6920
	ROT 270
	PRELOAD
END
MESH ; Pad 39B (Space Shuttle)
	FILE K-LC-39-Rep-v2
	OWNMATERIAL
	POS -11800 63 5290
	ROT 270
	PRELOAD
END

Now if you are using the scenario "Atlantis - Launch into sunrise" you will need to adjust the position of the shuttle just a bit. Edit the scenario to look like;

Code:
STS-101:Atlantis
  STATUS Landed Earth
  POS -80.6209000 28.6271540
  HEADING 2.00
  AFCMODE 7
  PRPLEVEL 0:1.000000 1:1.000000 2:1.000000
  NAVFREQ 0 0
  CONFIGURATION 0
  GEAR 0 0.0000
  ARM_STATUS 0.5000 0.0000 0.0000 0.5000 0.5000 0.5000
  SAT_OFS_X 0.000000
  SAT_OFS_Y 0.000000
  SAT_OFS_Z 0.000000
  CARGO_STATIC_MESH Carina_cradle
  CARGO_STATIC_OFS 0.000000 -1.650000 0.050000
END

Note that the POS (position) has been moved? That centers up the stack to where it looks better on the pad. If you want to move to the other launch site, it's matter of using the scenatio editor. Select Atlantis, and location (on the ground) and use the radio buttons to shift the coordinates to the new spot you want.

If you want to use the launch tower that comes with ISS 3.2, then DaveS has already given you those instructions.

Also, to comment out something from a .cfg file;

;all you need to
;do it place a semi-
;colon at the beginning
;of the line of text
;and it will be ignored

Sorry guys for bothering, but now my scenario is fresh again and totally new and default, everything normal. There is no
Mesh; Pad 39B tower, etc etc or anything said about a tower in the default scenario. So how do you get the ISS launch tower to work with the DEFAULT completely fresh scenario?

The ISS (by Thorton) launch tower is a vessel, the Kev Shanow tower that I use is scenery. Look at page 1 of this thread, DaveS told you how to do what you want to do.
