Ah
This happened to me one time, i corrected the problem by reinstalling orbiter all over again.

You should wait for more replies before doing this. Though it solved my problem, i wouldn't want you to reinstall
orbiter and still have that same problem.

Do you have the main bus on?

I tried everything. I looked in the manual by the controls, but nothing about a payload or antenna.
In-game, i looked in the control panel, i saw airlock controls, voltage power, steering etc but no payload controls.
But in scenario "what's cool- visual mesh changes" i saw the DeltaGliderIV with payload and antenna open.
In that scenario, i looked at the control panel and scenario editor, but nothing was changed. How about this?

Actualy, this is quite an old thread and he didn't reply, so I think the problem is solved.

Do the payloads themselves do anything, or are they just for show?

James.Denholm · Reply #8 - 31 October 2007, 10:25:53

They add weight to the craft, stuff like that (there also may be something to do with docking with them using the
nose cone and unlimited fuel and O2... hint hint, search the forums, don't ask me cause I can't remember the link to
the topic)

I always keep a disk with orbiter. I update the disk every 2-3 weeks. Just in case something like this happens.

Hmm... wise words. Pity I don't do the same, but I keep backups of everything in seperate zip files, just like I
downloaded them... and I don't install new MFDs and stuff every other day. I hope that disk is re-writeable, or your cd
budget must go through the roof!

Three. Thy shall count three panels. Thy shall not count four panels. Thy shall not count two panels, unless they are
preceeding to count three panels.

For those who don't know, this is a rip of of a scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Think holy hand grenade.

Hey, thanks! my problem is now solved

James.Denholm · Reply #16 - 23 November 2007, 22:21:33

Thanks for saying thanks!

Do you think that the next version of the payload pack can have animations?(Like the mining laser shoots a laser to a
pinpoint area, and may make a hole or blow something up? Or maybe if a dark matter box was broken open, it would
rip apart whatever it touched?)
