hi forum!
first off: huge thanks to all modders, you guys keep increasing our gaming experience so much!
since i'm currently trying to ressurect my 1.2.2 station one (she's a biggin) involving much of near future and stockalike station parts expansion i found these mods are currently kind of working on my 1.4.1 install. so i want to port her to the new stockalike station parts redux mod by our great @Nertea when i stumbled across these problems:
apparently and according to my nimble searches through and comparison of the files in my 1.4.1 and my 1.2.2 install there might be some issues with copy-pasted textures in the cfg. files of the parts?!
like this one:
the used .dds files are to be taken from an 1.25 to 2.5m adapter instead of the existing ones in the same folder? (looking like the desired senior docking adapter)
or am i completely missunderstanding this system?
as of now i didn't find a solution to the missing senior docking port problem
here i ran into blindly mixing old and new configs in my current game install due to a self-induced lack of sleep which apparently lead to some missing textures so that the top and bottom part are completely white:
now gotta solve the 2.5m docking port!

PS: so, anyway, i try to keep track of this since i hope to be able to rebuild station one at some time.
many appologies, if this doesn't end up in the right place or anything of that stuff, please report any typos or mistakes to your mom and/or daughter immediately. and again many thanks to all the modders! also everybody reading this allways keep in mind: these results may be caused by outdated versions of the mods i used.
i've now found the discussion to this problem going on in the sspxr-thread but i still think it belongs here. hope, nertea and some clever kerbonauts keep looking and contributing in here
last and final edit:
at the point i reached now i have a kind-of-solution:
i got a working install of ksp 1.3.1 up and running all the necessary part-mods for station one. got ckan to check mods for the most recent versions. after that i copied all the crewtube-docking-25-files from the \GameData\StationPartsExpansion\Parts\Structural\crewtube-25 folder of an older ksp install (being ksp1.2.2 for me, might be any version before sspx0.5.0 i think) over the existing ones in the ksp1.3.1\gamedata. this made the game recognize the 2.5m docking port incl. monoprop as an existing part again.
thus rendering my station one finally ready for conversion into stockalike station parts expansion redux =)
again: great thanks to @Nertea for his effords!
hope, somebody might find this usefull. everybody who got annoyed by the uncounted edits i did to this, please have a potato:
