What's happened to the FL-R1 tank??

[RealKerbal3x]

Something weird has happened to the 2.5m RCS fuel tank (the FL-R1). In my install, it looks like this, and it's been this way since 1.4.

As far as I can see, it's using the new texture on the old model. I'm not sure how to fix this -- I've even had a look in the config file for this part, but I'm not sure what to change in there to fix it. I'm using Firespitter Core as a dependency for another mod and that's the only mod I have that could be causing this. (I can give you my full modlist if you want though).

Any ideas??

Would you be able to open the file containing the stuff for the fuel tank?

[RealKerbal3x]

That's what I did. The cfg looks like this:

                _BumpMap = Squad/Parts/FuelTank/RCSFuelTankR1/RCSFuelTankR1_N
            }
        }

            TEXTURE

                _BumpMap = Squad/Parts/FuelTank/RCSFuelTankR1/RCSFuelTankR1_N
            }
        }

Is there anything wrong with this??

EDIT: The actual file location looks like this:

I just updated and have the same problem. Did you ever find a solution?

[RealKerbal3x]

No. Tried editing the .cfg and nothing happened. I have a sneaking suspicion that the solution is inside the asset bundles and inaccessible to us.

[RealKerbal3x]

I tried editing the .cfg file again. I changed the mesh from RCSFuelTankR1_01.mu to model.mu. This didn’t work either. I’m going to try uninstalling firespitter.

[RealKerbal3x]

I decided I'd revive this, as I still have the same problem. While textures really don't make a difference to the gameplay, my semi-perfectionist self finds the weird broken texture annoying as it doesn't fit in with the other parts.

I'm going to try making a duplicate of my installation, then removing mods one by one to see if it makes any difference.

[HansonKerman]

The full moldiest would be best.

[RealKerbal3x]

I can post my full modlist tomorrow, as I’m on mobile now and can’t remember it off the top of my head. It’s roughly 20 or 21 mods.

Hmmmmmmmm...

Where did you download the game?

Also, it should be a model problem. Try swapping out each model in the rcs tanks file.

I originally downloaded the game from GOG.com, but when I updated to 1.4.0 I used GOG Galaxy. The problem originated in the update to either 1,4,0 or 1.4.1.

As I said previously, I did try changing the mesh from RCSFuelTankR1_01.mu to model.mu. That didn't change anything.

Do you use Ven's Stock Part Revamp?

No, I don’t. Since the problem originated in 1.4.0 that narrows it down to only four or five mods, but I’m still narrowing down all 22 of my mods, just to be sure.

EDIT: I tried making a duplicate of my install and removing mods one by one, but the ‘launch KSP’ shortcut in the directory kept launching my main install. How exactly do I launch my duplicate install?

EDIT 2: (You can see i'm trying to avoid double posting now ) I think I've figured it's not a mod problem now. In the .cfg, should I edit the mesh or bumpMap?

Double post, but neither variable in the .cfg changed anything. Could anyone post their .cfg for this? It might fix it if I copy it from an unbroken file.
