Everything is manually downloaded from spacedock or github, and manually installed (i haven't take time to install the mono project for Ckan)

===============================================================================
GameData :
     |
     |___ASET => ASET_PROPS.(1.5)
     |
     |                  Agencies
     |___ JSI => RasterPropMonitor => Library, Plugins, etc...(vers0.29.3)
     |                 RPMPodPatches
     |
     |___ ProbeControlRoom (version under gamedatafolder in your archive, vers1.2.2.9)
     |
     |___ ModuleManager.2.8.1.dll ( +his auto created config Files)

HI !

I've cleaning my gamedata folder, installed debian Ckan version, and installed PCR, with his dependencies, and the probe control room appears in game !

Was having a no signal screen in the room, and as im at work i cant test more now, but i will edit this post in few hours, after some more test and player.log upload !

EDIT : It seems Ckan just install the "RasterPropMonitorCore", and it seems that the simple "RasterPropMonitor" entry was needed too
(maybe i've missed something, so, i had select him manually in ckan )
I've downloaded too mechjeb vessel viewer etc, so Player.Log will have some other things, sorry about that.

Here is the log : https://www.transfernow.net/download/?utm_source=390nm8c1rnbv

Everything seems functional !
I hope you can find the difference cause a lot of people are not using ckan :/

Hey all, instructions say I need dev version of scan sat.  Don't really know what that means?  I searched dev version and I can only find 1.3.0 compatible.  What is the issue with regular scan sat.  

 

 

I love this mod BTW one of my favorites.

What version of the game are you installing this on?

Hello ! 

Can we hope an update soon ? This mod quickly became a must-have ! It's the last one I need to start my 1.4 career ! :D

Keep up the work, we love you !

Unfortunately, Squad changed something about the renderer in 1.4.x. Even with updated Raster Prop Monitor, the MFD props render backwards or upside down. @MOARdV, who maintains RPM, hasn't been able to fix it. So any IVA that uses RPM MFDs (like this one) isn't going to be useful in 1.4.x anyway.

MOARdV is developing a replacement for RPM called MOARdV's Avionics Systems that doesn't have this problem, but all RPM IVAs will have to be completely remade before they work with MAS.

That sucks!

Oh well, time to retire a mod

The bug is specific to DirectX, and doesn't seem to be affecting OpenGL, so RPM works fine on Mac and Linux, as well as on Windows if running in OpenGL.

I hear you, but most people play on Windows.  If I released this for 1.4 with a caveat that it must run in openGL, or some other restriction. I'll  never hear the end of support requests.

So, unless RPM works fine in all environments, I'm  not going to waste my time.

Sorry

hey @linuxgurugamer would you still be willing to support this again when MAS hits full release? That would replace all the RPM displays

Oh wait, I see this was already mentioned, but not directly addressed. I'm assuming you would want all the RPM displayed converted by someone else though?

Well, if someone else does the rewrite, it would make sense for that someone to maintain it

I suppose. I was thinking you could do the plugin rewrite to just support MAS while someone else worked on the actual config files that define and operate the MAS displays

It's not a mod I use, I was only keeping it going by recompiling and fixing bugs.

It would be better if someone who had the time and desire would take it over.  As it is, I'm going to depreciate this mod for 1.4 (ie:  not support it, not update it, etc)

I just read that and now I am unhappy.

What the hell, Squad.

If the main problem with updating this is that it needs a new IVA to incorporate MAS, I'm currently trying to create a 'more accurate to KSP cinematics' alternate internal space for this mod. If I'm able to provide that with MAS in mind (though no promises), would that be all that's needed for a 1.4.x update? What changes on the plugin-side would need to be made - Was RPM not optional for this?

Sorry for maybe not being as clear as I could have: I'm asking what part of the .dll actually needs a rewrite to function? I opened the source in VS, and to my (admittedly untrained) eye I could not find anything obvious to be rewritten to work with MAS. I would assume, as it's just another mods prop, that it would just be referenced in the config file/s. Is there something else that needs plugin rewriting for 1.4.x that is unrelated to RPM/MAS? 

I honestly understand not wanting to spend a lot of time focusing on fixing this mod, as you clearly have a lot of other mods to handle, being the great eater of all poor abandoned modlets. But if this can be updated without a major .dll rewrite then I would like to see where I or others can take it.

It's the way that RPM works, or, as I'm told, is NOT working in 1.4.  This mod depends on RPM, and since I've been told that RPM has certain, unfixable problems, I'm not going to spend any time on it.
