Most wings not producing lift?


Recommended Posts

Hi. This is my first post here, so forgive me if anything is wrong. I am, however, an experienced ksp player, so don't refrain from the technical details.

To the issue: I have several mods in my game centered around spaceplanes and aircraft in my KSP (it's a separate file from my main rocketry game). Among them are procedural wings, b9, retrofuture, FAR, coffee industries plane parts, Firespitter, KJR, SXT, Tweakscale, BDArmory, BDynamics, and ActiveTextureManagement. I'm running on a x32 install, and my computer is more than adequate to run. The problem lies with wings. They don't appear to actually be making any lift at all, sans a few (namely the coffeeindustries ones.) FAR seems to be working fine, it's on the toolbar, has a gui, simulations, pitch/roll/yaw control surface tweakables, etc. In the SPH, the lift is simply displayed as a blue ball with no arrow indicating lift direction. In-game, there appears to be no lift generated, and my test plane only flew up after I pitched up hard, probably from the wing physics in general, not lift. I have no idea whatsoever what is causing the problems, as every single one of these mods is updated or proven to work in .25, there has been no lag or crashing, and memory usage is not excessively high. I have not looked at any logs or such yet, but I can upload them upon request. I googled it with no results, so I don't know if this is just a unique issue or just hasn't been documented yet.

Again, I do not know the mod(s) that are causing the problems, and everything except that seems to work fine.

Thanks for your time,

-Arch

First, welcome to the forums!

Second, as Padishar says, we need your log.

Third, the arrow from the ball was removed, since it was meaningless. If you open the FAR GUI in the editor, go to the Stability Derivatives tab, change mach to 1.0, and click calculate, what angle of attack does it say you need?

my B9 wings don't have a lift number I have reinstalled 3 times

Hi groosum8, if you need support, please start a new thread, not necro an old thread with the same topic. The mods and the game itself have been updated since then, so what worked before might no longer work.

This thread is quite old. Please consider starting a new thread rather than reviving this one.
