Problem Shuttle Fleet scenarios & Launch Problem

[kdridders]

Hi all,
Ive been playing orbiter for a year or so but i found i needed to move from a laptop to a pc (i previously had shuttle fleet v3)
After getting Orbiter on the main pc i went for shuttle fleet the latest one and have a LOT of major issues.

1. No scenario works! All crashes when loading or in vc
2. Cannot find STS-122 The Odds expansion pack no where
3. 99% of the time at launch before even clearing the tower the roll program starts and barely moves then the shuttle 'veers of course' pointing away from the pad and cannot escape the atmosphere

These are just some so any help would be appreciated

Thanks for any help,
Dan (kdridders)

I don't know about the shuttle problems. I'm sure someone more knowledgable than I will post. But I do know as a beginner, tackling the Shuttle is probably beyond your capabilities. You really should start with the DG and some of the tutorials so you learn the fundementals.

Make sure your video settings is on color depth 16 and check "always enumerate devices".Also when flying shuttle,check "limited fuel". Are you using laptop?

I just find out my STS 122 is not working too. Anyway,
If you are using autopilot launch,make sure your launch is in the launch window time.(you'll find if before opening the scenario in the launchpad flight details for most of the missions) I just tried to launch out of the launch window and ended up in out of control spin.

Thanks for the reply,
Probably sounds right because when i launch to the iss i let it come back again and then launch sometimes goes right. Problem is mind - the scenarios that do load don't state a specific launch window

Has the event in my 2nd pic ever happened to you?

I want the STS-125 Expansion but it crashes
it requires the STS-122 The odds exp pack

have you heard of that?

Thanks again stay in touch

No, I've never seen something like whats on the second picture.The launch window is easy to see when the ISS orbit passes the Cape on the map MFD.
When you click on the (let say STS 114) launch scenario once,it should give you brief description of the mission,launch time,date etc.
But I only have whatever scenarios came with the SS fleet 4.0.
