there's something up with the X-15 parts, the game freezes when loading a part
Not sure what any of log stuff means, but this looks relevant.
Same error on my end. @CobaltWolf My guess is you made a boo boo in the config file.

Here it is, Atlas Titan! ... Titan Atlas? Attin? Tilas? Can't decide.... anyway, the Voyager was just thrown together quick.

I wonder which will happen first, this forum reaching 1250 pages or the github download hitting 1GB (compressed)
Page 1250 won.
Now which will happen? Page 1300 or Github 1GB compressed.

What, like, on everything?
Yes please. I'd like to use X-15 like a space shuttle. Or at the bare minimum, a sub-orbital (100+ KM AP) glider
-
@CobaltWolf The X-15 will no doubt have high heat tolerance, but will it have optional ablative shielding? If not, can it be requested?

The issue of how to handle surface attach hasnt been decided yet. On one hand the no surface attach concept was something that helped distinguish the balloon tanks and worked as a balancing factor given how much better the mass fraction is compared to other tanks. On the other hand we do know a lot of users like decals and there is a lot of scope for fun decals on the Atlas series especially the various test launches. I'm probably leaning towards allowing surface attach. Even on the current base tank model you can surface attach to the LR101 mounting points and slide things up whether its decals or other things so maybe it doesnt matter so much other than making things awkward.
I have a suggestion for that. You could make a colidable mesh on the pipes/raceways that runs up the center of the tank. That would allow decals while not allowing surface attach to the actual tank itself.
Of course, the best solution is probably just to allow surface attach on the tank itself. I mean, KSP is about lego-ing rockets and allowing things that IRL wouldn't allow.

That is really cool that we have actual irl rocket folks among us, though.How would knowing what rocket Invader works on be anything like what happens in War Thunder?

No, Invader is too busy making real rockets in real life
Okay, you can't drop that on us and not tell us what rocket!

I'm doing a white version (what do you mean metallic?) and I'd like to do one in the style of the "modern" Apollo CM but I really don't want to be the one to make it.
White painted metal. And actually, could we get a, dare I say, naked X-15? (A non-painted silver version)
I'm guessing you're leaving the honors of the "Modern" version to Invader?
36 minutes ago, Blufor878 said:"Sweats profusely"
Oh, that's not that bad. You want to see worse?
There's also drawings of a X-15 with shorten S-I stage and a X-15 with full size Saturn IB, but I can't access the document for those images.
-
@CobaltWolf Any chance of a metallic white version and/or a "shuttle" like version? Tiles and blankets.
Edit: Also, found this on Astronautix...

X-15 in BDA-armory as a Point defense interceptor (Shooting 20mm cannons at mach 15)
That's okay, I don't need the bullets to exit the barrel. I like to collect lead in my gun barrels.

X-15 on a Titan IV missile
Rocket*
Titan IV was never a missile. The last Titan "Missile" was the Titan II, IIRC.
Or were you suggesting someone make a Titan IV missile? Which would be a Titan IV without the SRBs TBH, so it would just be a stretched Titan II?
Okay, now that I'm picturing that, that is cursed. A Titan IV without SRBs... just... the widened fairing atop a stick... ugh, hurts me!
Sidenote: Apparently Titan III's program was called SSLS, with various acronyms. Titan III, best SLS! /joke

Would the X-15 even fit though?
Not really, too wide by 7 feet. It's body would fit length wise though, and in space, you don't need wings.

What about X-15 IN the Shuttle's cargobay?
Not really cursed. If anything that's quite practical.

Launching it will be up to the user, I'm sure you all will come up with some weird ideas and make me uncomfortable.
Does an X-15 atop a Nova make you uncomfortable?
What about X-15 underslung on the Space Shuttle's wing?
Or perhaps an X-15 strapped to the booster of the Soyuz?

I don't know how much of this includes parts from BDB, but it's cool as hell so why not post it anyways?
Hmm, the only parts I can make out that might be BDB are what look like RL10s on a centaur engine adapter on the service module.

Since you've all been good...
Instead of giving us a B-52 to launch the X-15, how about giving us the gliding Saturn S-IC-D? Eh? Eh?
I kid, I kid. I know you're basically done with Apollo stuff with BDB 1.

So, I did a quick and dirty copper color conversion on the Atlas D, just to see what a copper Atlas D would look like. Hope you don't mind @Zorg
I don't really have any photoshopping skills, so this was really quick and dirty. A simple "Recolor" in Paint.net.
And of course, I did an oxidized version as well, because why not. I know a copper rocket would never reach oxidation of this level, but hey, I think it looks good.
Oh, and for the memes/lawls I did Delta Blue. Metallic Delta Blue... cursed, blessed or blursed?
Also, I just realized I made RGB Atlases... Gaming Atlas confirmed!
(Copper Red, Copper Green, Delta Blue)

What is the function of the pipe that sticks out below the Atlas skirt, and why was its shape changed after Atlas A?
The big pipe is a discharge pipe for the tanks. Something about efflux.
The small pipe is the turbopump overboard pipe.
Why they were changed, idk.
Probably to fit the center better slash work with new ground equipment/launch pad. -

I believe the 4th picture I posted answers that question already
Ah, so it does. I'm blind. My apologizes.
Hmmm. What about a fictional Atlas Copper scheme for the early Atlas?

If we're playing that card, I can't imagine requiring that sort of lift capacity in KSP1. KSP2, on the other hand...
Also, on that note:
Ahem.... other star system mods...
That is all.
...
But in seriousness, the Big Nova would be great for interstellar missions. Or heck, even doing single launch to planet missions such as Jool. I admit, the use cases are niche, but if you make it, they will be used. I guarantee it. Also, the modding community will love you more for it, because big rocket = moar rocket = best rocket.
Also, I was wondering if someone would try to jerry rig BDB into KSP 2. Really wish Intercept would drop those modding tools and bring back gamedata or at least an easy to access modding folder.
1 hour ago, Zorg said:Is that a Saturn themed Atlas? Or an actual official paint scheme used on a select one or few launches I don't know about?
Also, been meaning to ask, is the original 2 engine engine mount going to be made?

limit the scope of BDB to Apollo-era craft and things directly derived from them

X-15. (IDK why, but on my laptop on my main game, it loads fine, but on my desktop with JUST BDB and dependencies installed, it throws the error.)
Also, @CobaltWolf X-15's engine needs a node. (For those wondering, the engine doesn't have a node on bottom/end, so I had to use some trickery.)
