Hi all-

I have managed to get the core installed, but only by telling it to install the core-4k option (#5). When i try to install the hires-4k option (#1), the terminal just abruptly closes and doesn't do anything. What am i doing wrong?

You have downloaded the Hires archive? On your disk enough space to unpack it?

Yes, it is downloaded and unpacked.

The archive is unpacked automatically using a script. The user does not need to unpack anything by himself.

That is how i first attempted it, but the script immediately stopped. So i unpacked the .7z file and tried again, but there was no difference.

There must be some really good reason for the script to suddenly "stopped". I have never seen this. :think:

Fizz · Post #132by **Fizz** » 14.10.2020, 16:27

Yeah, immediately after i press 1 and hit enter, the terminal just closes.

Does the .7z file have to be in a pariticular file location relative to the install script? I have it in the same folder as the Core.7z (that is, Core.7z and Hires.7z are in the same folder). The install script did work properly to install the Core, so i think it was in the right place.

What else might i be missing... ?

The archives are in the right place. But why you don't mention the Medres archive?

I haven't downloaded the medium ones, but i can give that a try.

The script is closely related to all three archives. Therefore, if you want to use the highest quality, everything must be downloaded in full.

Ah, i see. I missed that detail. I've downloaded the medium, and now it is doing the install properly. Thanks!

One more quick question- the 11.3 patch. How do i apply it? Just replace the relevant files?

Yes, just unpack and agree to a replacement.

Hmmm... unfortunately, i seem to be missing models / textures.

For example, i do not see the model for Earth's Orbital Station, though i did see it before i installed the hi res version.

I also don't see Magellan around Venus- i can find it and go to it, but there's no model. But unlike at Earth, i didn't see this one with the core install either.

What have i done wrong now?

"Magellan" burned down in the Venusian atmosphere in 1994 year. Time needs to be rewound.

Heh... good point. But what about Earth's Orbital Station?
