  1. Ouch, my i5-6600k is just above minimum but my good old 1060 is shaken by this (wonders why it can run RDR2 on high @ 1440p, but doesn't make the bottom tier here?). Probably still going to purchase in the hopes that I can run the thing in the future. KSP1 gave me around 4k hours of good times. Am I chasing the nostalgia dragon?
  2. Can't remembered the last time I posted... so I guess I'm new again. KSP came back and grabbed my re-attention real hard recently and I can't get anything done IRL. Feels good to be home What did I miss?
  3. Haven't played KSP in quite a while! I miss all the mishaps and accidental successes! I need something to get me away from my Red Dead Online addiction.
  4. TBH I've not played that much since 1.1 There have been too many bugs (landing legs being the worst) and my favourite mods being retired. Plus I'm no longer studying, so I don't need to procrastinate so much Still, if I was ever to be on New Player Has Joined (podcast), this would be the game where I talk their ears off. Nothing else comes close.
  5. I am ok with the delay. There's so much unplayed stuff in my collection to keep my occupied until then. I hope its smooth sailing from here for the Dev team.
  6. @SuicidalInsanity Sweet mod. I'm not sure on the physics of it all, but it got me to Duna and had fun doing so. Would have landed successfully too had my ship not bounced and fallen apart. I look forward to the rest of the updates.
  7. Hi CobaltWolf, Love this mod. I keep coming back to it time & again. I've just noticed a slight hiccup. The LEO (sweet little capsule BTW) IVA & Cutaway is rotated 180 degrees from the externals. EG: When facing the mun with the windshield/porthole? the IVA shows the sky. Anyway, time to boot up and continue my adventures
  8. Aww, this thread makes me want to go back and re-start my build (my console got destroyed in a toolbox avalanche). Funny thing is, once I stopped studying I also stopped my hobbies. No electronics or model rockets have been built in nearly two years. I've just been playing guitar, making beer and getting fatter. Still have all the hardware though and recently came back to KSP after a long break. This time I might keep it simple. Just a few LED displays and fuel gauges.
  9. Just got the notification about this thread a moment ago. My PC decided not to work the day Making History was released, and I've only been able to get online now. I really want to finish my control panel, but now that I'm not studying I don't have the motivation to do hobby electronics. My old panel had an accident, so I'll need to start from scratch, but also scale down to bare minimum. Just a couple of readouts for Altimeter, Apo and Peri and maybe fuel. This will be the housing.
  10. Looking at this video, the design stage seems to have a bit more depth to it. As for general assembly, I can't imagine that there are all that many options for stacking tubes together. Then again, I never imagined how a space sim would work. Seems pretty obvious now, but that's just me after years of playing KSP.
  11. I tried the gel medium method with a photo. #1 don't use photo paper. #2 it'll work, but it will also add a patina of age to the decals. The last layer of paper is really hard to get off. This makes the final image a little cloudy. It has a pleasing effect on photographs, but maybe not so good for professional decal results.
  12. I'm in Australia. I'm lucky the ants weren't poisonous spiders. Anyway..., back on topic. The world doesn't seem to have ended with the IP acquisition, but I'm holding off playing until the he DLC comes out. I kinda went out of control playing too much just before 1.3 dropped.
  13. As someone who has a free coffee machine in the office, I won't drink the stuff. One time there were ants in the machine. Also the coffee is awful.
  14. I once started a boutique music electronics business. Billing the time invested in building the things was not practical as the end product would be ridiculous high. Net result? I work a terrible desk job to pay the bills. Electronics remains a hobby.
