0.20 - PartTools, GameDatabase and new features

[BobCat]

Hi, i dont see PropTools in 0.20 PT version.

[Mecripp]

Could some 1 please tell me how to save or export what u have done in unity back in to the game i added some RasterPropMonitor to a pod but dont know what to save it as or where to get it back in the game

[CardBoardBoxProcessor]

so when do we get those FX making parttools?

okau I have unity 4.3.4f1. Put this is for KSP .20. KSP is now at 0.23. Is there a 0.23 parttools?

I try to use texture overloading in MODULE node:

        MODEL
	{
		model = Hangar/Parts/Models/InflatableHangar1
		//this does not work. PartLoader dies with NullRef =(
		texture = inflatable-hangar-case , Hangar/Parts/Models/inflatable-hangar-case-orange
	}

But get NullRef exception:

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
  at PartLoader.ReplaceTextures (UnityEngine.GameObject model, System.Collections.Generic.List`1 textureNames, System.Collections.Generic.List`1 newTextures) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 
  at PartLoader.CompileModel (.UrlConfig cfg, .ConfigNode partCfg, Single scaleFactor) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 
  at PartLoader.ParsePart (.UrlConfig urlConfig, .ConfigNode node) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 
  at PartLoader.MoveNext () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 

I've triple checked all URLs and texture names in Unity. All is correct.

Has anyone experienced this and, by any chance, know how to work around this?

Is that comment yours or was it there all along?

The one about PartLoader dying? Mine.

Does the 0.20 thing still work or am I going to have to try and derp around with the 0.23 one (my first time on unity and i have no idea what to do)

Just grab the .23 version. All you have to do is unzip it into the assets folder inside your Unity project. Simple as that. The .20 version came as a .unitypackage which did so automatically when you double clicked it. No need to install that first. And Unity 4.2.2 is best, btw. Anything later will give funny issues with animations for KSP.

Just so you know, the DL link is broken.

Thank you! I've been searching high and low for an active link to 0.20 tools.

I'm struggling to get this package to work. I need to install 0.20, then override with updates from 0.23, correct?

[lo-fi]

Nah, you just drag the unzipped contents of part tools .23 into the assets folder of your unity project. No need for .20 first. Mods, could we get a note in the OP of this thread to that effect please? This continues to cause confusion.

Greetings,

Assets folder: Folder where you are working on your part(s).

I think it is created when you do a save?

I cant remember as I myself an getting back into this; so yes I can see...run Unity, start6 a package (?); close Unity (?); add the asset; now you can port/save the asset anywhere?!

Some of my first projects had a crapload of assets not used 'by KSP'; learning curve.
