My rocket spins out and the camera stops following my vessel


Recommended Posts

Hey.

I´m new to the forum and the game, and tried to read up on where to post but not sure if I got it right anyhow, so please forgive me if I post in the wrong section, and maybe a mod could assist in getting it to the correct sub-forum.

This is one of the best games ever IMO and I found out about it only two weeks ago or so.

Sadly I encountered a bug that drives me crazy and soon makes me uninstall the game, but turn to this forum in hope that anyone of you here could assist me before I give up.

I'm not sure if this "bug" is due to a mod or not. Since my rocket have a few mod-parts (mostly for science but also some RCE thrusters etc.) I have not been able to remove all of my mods, but very close to, and still the problem persist.

If I remember correctly, its the following mods this vessel depends on:

Fuel Tanks Plus - 0.11.1

VenStockRevamp - 1.8

and one or more of near future mods.

All mods installed via CKAN.

I have also tried to reinstall the game 2-3 times with no luck. And tried the game in both x64 and x86, I normally run on x86.

OS:

Windows 7 pro x64, with all the latest drivers in a HP elitebook laptop.

8k RAM

Intel core i5 2520-M quad @ 2.5 ghz

Intel HD graphics 3000 with dx11.

All my addons are up to date and match with release 1.0.2 with KSP.

Addons I use: (but as mentioned before, I have also tried with a minimal of mods running)

Below I will explain the problem only focusing on this one vessel with two very similar design, but I encountered the same problem on other designs and previously working rockets as well, so don't mind the pictures below show some minor design differences:

I have my spacecraft with asparagus staging, perfectly synced with symmetry mode and angle snap on all vital parts. I tried numerous different settings below stage 5 as boosters and engines and all with same problem, but at different altitude.

I tried with SAS and RCE disabled and enabled, same problem.

I tried both manned with pilot and as a probe.

I tried my upper stage (including and above stage 2) with only one single stage mainsail engine and a long single line of rocketfuel and managed to get the rocket up with no problem. So everything seems to work, but not together.

Three pictures of rocket setup and staging, you can find here:

Two pics when all is good and working on my way to higher altitude:

Here on this picture at about 14k altitude there comes a "swish"-sound (same sounds plays at around 7k meter, not sure if this changes depending on velocity and such) and then the rocket starts to move up outwards of the screen but it starts to flip out of control before disappearing, and you see on the following pictures how my vessel lost camera focus, even tho I swap between "orbital, Locked, Free"-camera modes etc.

I manually stage the rocket to split in parts, to further show how the camera is not focusing on my vessel, and even if I manually look for my vessel its not in the center.

Please let me know if I can provide any more information or if you would like a save file to try the vessel for yourself (need to get some mods, or remove some parts).

Thanks in advance, I'm really looking forward to enjoy the game again!

I can almost guarantee that this is a mod. In fact, it's very probably a conflict between two mods. Unfortunately my best advice is binary search; remove half the mods, see if it works. If not, remove half the remaining mods and see if it works, if it does, put half the removed mods back. Faster than going one by one through them :)

In my case I'm relatively sure that having two mods with different versions of kspapi.dll didn't help me any. Still testing... :/
