Some textures are buggy, communications main frame does not display (0.9.8.1). Ignore custom main emis texture.

nothing this. How did it happen?
Texturex should be unpacked from payload_SE_031.zip and located at addons\textures\spacecraft\modules, \payld_mods
Models located at addons\models\spacecraft\modules, \payld_mods

SpaceEngineer it says that just .sss file needs to be modified and that's it. Do I also need textures folder or something? I was just following the instructions. Thanks!

You must copy the .sss file to SpaceEngine\addons\models\spacecraft\
in file .sss must be specified (it is a text file)

Never mind, it works ok in 0.9.8.0. It must be a bug in the beta.

Directory format has not changed, and I'm pretty sure that dds format has not changed either.

I know that. That's exactly what I did before. I also tried following instruction from the official site, with textures. I'm probably going to solve it by myself eventually. Thank for the help anyway.

YES! Circular side segments! An awesome feature I didn't know I needed all along.
There is a minor bug though: If you add a circular section and then move the ship with the < and > keys, it transformographagizes itself into a hexagonal section and clips through stuff.

Some questions:
1.Is it possible to set specific RCS/shunting engine(s) to function as main engine(s) and if so how?
2. Is it possible to set docking ports / points in the editor?

I seem to be running into a problem with my first test ship not showing up in the SE game.
I exported the .sss and edited using Notepad + +
I placed it into the E:\Games\SpaceEngine\addons\models\spacecrafts directory.
I'll include the first paragraph of code in case I'm missing something here (since I don't know what's what, I copy/pasted some of the values in your example in the first post to this thread):
Name "FirstShip"
Class "Planetship"
Pack "SpaceEngine"
Faction "Aliens"
Mass 21860000
MainEngines 1613.906678865508
RetroEngines 0
CorrEngines 0
HoverEngines 0.0
Hyperdrive true
Aerodynamics false
Length 294.9072
Offset (0 0 0)
Quat (1 0 0 0)
Albedo 0.3
Exposure 2

Maybe this is the error. The name of the folder is '
spacecraft' - without '
s' at the end - not '
spacecrafts'.
The same is true for '
textures\spacecraft'.

That did it! I was sure there was supposed to be an 's' in there... thank you so much!

I was reading this by accident and I solved my problem that I posted long time ago here. I wasn't touching the spacecraft since then. And I stumbled upon this. It looks like I also had 'spacecrafts' folder. And I was trying everything to make it work when I made spacecraft. Looks like there was only that 's' at the end.
Anyway, thanks
JackDole!
