Novananace Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I have BDA installed, and the physics thing that it required, and i have the Weapon manager put on my vehicles, but when i click it, it always shows " No Weapon Manager". How do i connect the Weapon manager to the weapons if thats what it means, im in 1.4 now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortoise Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 @Papa_Joe@jrodriguez I've found the most bizzare work-around for my issue..And I think it's a bug with BDA, and not my installation. I'm on Linux, so that may be a factor. Upon going in and re-analyzing the log file myself, I noticed that BDA was looking in the wrong directory for some of the files it requires. Even though I dropped BDA and PhysicsRangeExtender in my normal GameData directory: /home/<username>/KSP_linux/GameData/BDArmory/ According to the logs, BDA was looking for it's files in: /home/<username>/GameData/BDArmory/ So in order to work-around my issue, I had to make a NEW GameData folder in my home directory (not KSP directory), and place a 2nd copy of my BDA folder in the new GameData folder. Once I did that, I was able to fire a missile and not have it dissapear when selecting the "Fire" option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that does work, I'll have a look at the Hellfire and see if it was something I messed up. Yes shortening the rail works. No more wierd log errors 20 hours ago, TheKurgan said: I have not seen this. Please try a clean install of KSP 1.4.2, with BDAc 1.2.0, and PRE, and see if you still have the issue. Does clean install means deleting everything and reinstalling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Usually it means , create a new install, using only Squad BDA PRE and module manager in the GameData folder and retest. If all systems work then it means that something you have in your GameData is interfering with BDA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HI No, simply copy your complete KSP install to another location(preferably not C and NOT your desktop) Rename it,, make a new shortcut , delete all of the contents of the gamedata folder except for Squad copy in BDA PRE etc . Start new game , done, you have now created a copy of KSP that can be used for troubleshooting similar mod problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adsii1970 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I've skimmed the thread and cannot find one helpful hint. Is this like previous updates where I need to disarm craft made in 1.3 before I bring them over to 1.4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If however you have been running perhaps ksp1.3, disarming craft is very much advised before importing craft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Equador Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Hey guys. I have got a little problem with BDA mod. It's actual version of BD with vessel mover and physic range extender. The problem is that when I drive a vehicle with weapon manager installed and click on BDA icon, the red phrase "MODULE MANAGER NOT INSTALLED. BDA WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY" appears in the middle of the screen. I will be really happy if someone can send me a link to MODULE MANAGER that works with BDA 1.4.x, Physic range extender and vessel mover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi quite simply because we see far too many cases of multiple and obsolete copies of MM and similar bundled dll's in the logs we see regularly, as today 1 log with 8 versions of MM. And a new record holder in the 37 copies of AVC. Edited April 26, 2018 by SpannerMonkey(smce) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The solution is kinda simple, to be honest with you (or at least I think it is). Since most modders do use AVC, why not give the url link on the forum thread to download the full AVC plugin. Use the fact it will help keep the mods updated as the reason why to use it, then the only part of the AVC that has to be put into the mod is the version file. When I post the next update of InFllightFlagSwitcher and the system Nohochacyum, this is what I am going to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
