Delete your older Module manager, my mod, firespitter, and dmagic science animate and then re-install my mod and dependencies from scratch. You'll need the Github repo for the latest version. Alternatively, if you want to wait a day or two, I should have the new release out. Hopefully no later than Friday. Only because the Github repo is constantly changing EDIT: By the way, thank you for posting the logs Thanks for the quick reply. I will try to isolate it and just install your mod and the dependencies first. I really look forward to using the mod!!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallon43 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Sorry to bother you again, but it's not working again. I only have your mod and its dependencies - I downloaded and made sure latest version for firespitter, Dmagic Orbital Science and your mod. Most likely, it's my fault, but I am just eager to try your parts so badly. Heres the list of mods (and the zips they came in). https://imgur.com/a/XTXMG And here is the latest logs- from the minimal gamedata setup. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1s_W40XQ3ffYWq0xvkuuaTUBAwGRN4S0T?usp=sharing Thanks in advance, take all the time you need, Im in no hurry. Im sorry to be such a bother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaverickSawyer Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Are you sure you're running the 64-bit version? If you're using Steam to automatically launch the game, it'll default to the 32-bit version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenBot448 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 14 hours ago, akron said: It's this guy here: I'm taking design queues from my previous parts, including my SCANsat ones. In-game it will function as IR, UV, and Optical imagers, along with support for scansat biome mapping. I don't think it will be a Dmagic multispectral imager. Might be too much science gain from one part Nice! It would make sense not to be the Dmagic Imager, becuase of the science gain it would make science mode a bit easy, but still nice to have a new part for the Cassini probe. Can't wait!

Okay, I noticed 2 things things this time: You still have an older version of Science animate Generic, and an older version of Firespitter, both do not work with KSP 1.3.1. You'll need version 0.19 and 7.6.0 respectively. Mod DLLs found: Stock assembly: Assembly-CSharp v0.0.0.0 ModuleManager v3.0.1.0 DMagic v1.3.0.11 / vv1.3.11 DMModuleScienceAnimateGeneric v0.16.0.0 Firespitter v7.3.6212.36331 Also note that you are not running the dev release of my mod from Github. Which is fine, but it means that you won't see the new Cassini parts or anything new since Coatl Aerospace v0.15. If you want to try the new test version (Some things are still WIP like Juno's solar panels) download and install the Github repository. Instructions are at the bottom of that page. If you go that route, I already include the latest Firespitter and ScienceAnimateGeneric. It also removes the DMagic Orbital Science dependency, though I still recommend the mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobaltWolf Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 IMO the simple solution is just to make the science pallet the equivalent of having all the experiments separate, in terms of cost mass etc. Maybe heavier and more expensive, because it has the extra structural bits. But to me it seems like it would just be a visual choice. Some probes would look good with that integrated pallet, some would look better with separate experiments. And it is going to be a late game part, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it is going to be a late game part, right? Pretty much. It comes in as a more advanced version of Voyager's science boom. Probably one tier above whatever that one is now with the added science return percentage. Maybe even working radiators, or passive cooling, to simulate its thermal control properties. There's little difference I can apply with KSP's limited science system, but they are very different in RL. Cassini has two completely different Infrared instruments, for example, and I just didn't want to add one more "right-click-and-done" IR experiment. You just can't emulate that science without a survey contract of some sort. It will cover the 3 "full spectrum" experiments currently available (IR-Visible-UV).

Boomer Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Hello @akron, I'm going to ask you a question, Why are you "biased" toward replicating an already esisting in real life probe or satellite ? I mean, they're spectacular with flying colors, but it "limit" you to assembly the pieces in only one way why you don't produce more "general-use" pieces inspired to real life one ? (it's only a doubt, the work you've done is spectacular) Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(it's only a doubt, the work you've done is spectacular) Cheers! Thank you! This is actually how I started. All the early parts are very generic, but the mod ended up expanding to some replicas. Essentially because I kept going back to add more parts from the likes of Voyager and Pioneer, to the point that replicas were possible. You actually don't have to use them as the replicas that they are, and the parts generally mix well with few exceptions. Actually, I rarely build the replicas in my own career mode. While I do real life mission part sets, the parts themselves are split as much as it makes sense, keeping that KSP mix/match spirit. Cassini is likely the worst offender, but even still you can use its dish, probe bus, and science parts in any combination. It's only the main structure that limits you to a Cassini replica. I'd say Venera is a close second. I am actually including a stand-alone decoupler part that will allow you to take Huygens along on any other mission, not just Cassini, so there's that too.

There will be a mix of generic and replica parts, I'm sure. Even if it is meant for a replica build, I will try whenever possible to make sure it can be used elsewhere. 57 minutes ago, tallon43 said: That's interesting, I downloaded off your repo so I must be doing it wrong again.

tallon43 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 FINALLY WORKED!! Literally just followed everything you said. I guess I was just tired last night and didn't follow your instructions.

This seems to be be due to my heavy use of texture swapping modules. As far as I know, texture are loading fine despite the error - Reloading the database from the cheat/debug menu may cause some parts and vessel using them to fail to load. I cannot figure out why. Restarting KSP is the safest way to re-load the assets - The Huygens heatshield and aeroshell are better off jettisoned from the right-click menu, rather than staging it. I will continue to test and hopefully solve I finished the science pallet but forgot to take good screenshots. Here is the best I have: Github only for now, I will update other sources later on. It's been a year since I started working on Cassini, and it is finally out (Pending that last pallet). Thank you all for your patience and support. I'm sure I messed something up in the download due to lack of sleep. Let me know. A patch will inevitably come soon to fix all my doh' moments. ~Cheers - Zzzzzzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akron Posted February 8, 2018 Author Share Posted February 8, 2018 1 hour ago, Cheesecake said: Here are my logs: KSP.log output_log.txt Are you sure it is all external antennas? I looked through your file with "dish_xihe" assuming that one was having the issue. It's the STEREO folding dish, one of the new parts. It is modified by a lot of ModuleManager configs: Antenna Sleep Antenna Helper CommNet Constellation CommNet Visualization Action groups extended AmpYear Power manager Sigma Dimensions Textures Unlimited There may be a conflict here, I'll see what I can dig up since I am unfamiliar with a lot of these mods. Any info you can share will help. Did you drop this in an active save? Have you tried to see what happens with a new save? Also, try deleting "ModuleManager.ConfigCache" from GameData and see if that helps. That's another good file to take a look at to see what the final cfg looks like for the antenna.
