@Drakenex I made a rescaled version of the AARDV module that is a decent replacement. I'm at school right now so I can't share, but when I get home I will.
EDIT: Nevermind. I saw you didn't want to use the AARDV texture. I would say that a CX node module rescaled would probably be your best bet here. The node module doesn't have handrails built in IIRC
-
-
Totally agree with @minepagan. Love the rescales and my program, as you can see from my screenshots, wouldn't be complete without them.

Launch of my JX2 relay in a 3.2x scale GPP save. Uses a Sarnus Multibody M23.

You guys understand that the Block IV Mission Module and Saturn Multibody are already on the road map right? In fact some of the parts have already been modeled. Re-scale cfgs are fine but let's remember to make some Hype the real deal shall we?
The Saturn Multibody S1F is definitely not modeled according to the roadmap, and Cobalt is plenty busy as it is. I am sorry if I'm clogging the thread but it seems relevant and I would rather rescale my own versions that wait for them.
-
@Drakenex I see you helped @davidy12 with the block IV mission module and it looks great in my game as well. Is there any chance you also have your config for the S1F? I'm trying to rescale it too but I don't know what amount of fuel to put in/what the scale values mean/ where to put attachment nodes. Thanks!
-
Thanks for the help guys. Just out of curiosity, is changing crew capacity as simple as changing the CrewCapacity line in the MM cfg?

Copy the Block III MM Cfg file. Then do this:
name = bluedog_Apollo_Block4_MissionModule
model = Bluedog_DB/Parts/Apollo/bluedog_Apollo_Block3_MissionModule
scale = 1, 0.8, 1
rescaleFactor = 1.3333
node_stack_top = 0.0, 0.7895192, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 2
node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -0.7895192, 0.0, 0.0, -1.0, 0.0, 2Thanks. I assume @Drakenex's other rescales are also done this way?
-
@davidy12 That's awesome! Is the Block IV MM as simple as using Tweakscale or is there some other witchcraft involved
@Hay Thanks for the advice, my CSM reached orbit by a very narrow margin. Either my ascent was still less efficient than it could have been or the Saturn 1B is really inefficient. Fortunately the Saturn 1C is far less close.

IRL they only fueled it about 20% AFAIK, you could try removing more fuel.
Thanks. Sounds good.
-
Thank you so much! i'll keep that in mind. By the way, your Foreign Eagle skybox is awesome!
-
I know IRL that the Saturn 1B was only supposed to make orbit with a partially fueled CSM, but even half fueled I can't seem to make orbit in my 3.2x rescale of GPP. Is this an ascent profile thing or should it just not be orbit-capable in a 3.2x system?
-
This delta-v map includes rescales?
-
Just started a 3.2x rescale save and it's a lot of fun. I have transfer window planner and the like installed, but it would also be nice to have a delta-v map to see how much it takes to orbit planets. If it doesn't exist, what would I do to adjust the values?

No it is not yet, and no I did not use Sigma Dimensions. I am currently using it as a playthrough to iron our any of the bugs I am coming across. It should be released shortly.
Thanks for the response. I love 1/2 scale RSS but I really want to do a playthrough with Bluedog parts at a more reasonable scale.

That is what I thought I remember you saying!
That is great news because that means I can use my QuarterRSS without any modifications to launch these beauties!
I know this comment was buried and I'm quite late, but is Quarter RSS released? If not, would it be as easy as a Sigma Dimensions config?

I'm thinking about starting a thread for custom cloud configs. How do you upload files so others can download?
I have no experience in modding so I'm probably not the right person to ask. Nice config though!
@ModerndayLink64 did you edit your earlier post to include the fixes?

I made a horizontal lander design for landing rovers and base modules. Jeb managed to stow away on the first test vehicle and, even though it was completely computer operated, claimed credit anyway.
Some other stuff I did:
That is quite the nice design! I've tried to make a horizontal lander like that for a while but the COM-COT offset always gets me. I should probably either get better at balancing or suck it up and install Throttle Control Avionics.
-
I spent quite a while trying to get that config working with the latest SVE (1.1.6) to no avail. The clouds load in black and I have to manually load them using the EVE gui. I'm not totally sure what the problem is, but I think it's related to the new terminator effects.
-
Is that lightning I see on Oran?

Still didn't work. Maybe I've put the code into the config file wrong? SVE works great but Tekto looks almost like a black ball lol
It's very simple. That block of code I sent should be copied. Next, go to the location I specified earlier in GameData. Open up the clouds.cfg with Notepad and paste my code at the very end. If that doesn't work, try using the previous version of SVE. I do not really want to be bothered with support without more specific details.

That didn't work, there is no clouds at all. Do I need to include Pood's mod to get this foggy atmosphere?
Bear in mind I'm dumb when it comes to this kind of stuff. If it's not drag and drop then I suck so you'll have to explain it to me like I'm a 5 year old lol.
You need to have the newest version of Stock Visual Enhancements installed, otherwise you will not have the correct cloud textures. Note: I am using the low detail version of SVE for performance reasons
-
I decided to try out @ModerndayLink64's Tekto cloud cfg today and, long story short, it's incompatible with the latest version of SVE. I spent some time cobbling together this fix in the meantime, which I think looks pretty good. Hopefully this is OK with the creator.

I know that feature suggestions/requests are somewhat frowned upon in release threads, but I think this is a pretty good place to pitch an idea that I have: In USI-LS, Kerbals either give up, mutiny, go home, or die as soon as their supplies run out. Obviously the goal of life support is so players don't end up letting this timer run out, but accidents do happen, especially when running a part failure mod. Like with Apollo 13 and the Martian, I think Kerbals should have an option to work the problem and stretch their supplies until they find a solution.
What I would propose is a toggle to enable the crew of a vessel to enter Emergency Mode. This would extend life support and hab times by a multiplier in exchange for a large loss in crew experience levels and reputation. Just like Apollo 13, the crew would lose efficiency and capability on their mission in return for making it home alive. Plus the reputation bonus should dissuade players from just turning it on to maximize mission time.
This is just an idea I had, it is by no means a request and I am not good enough at coding to make this myself
Original Life Support Mod Concept: ReStock
in KSP1 Mods Discussions
Posted
I have tried out many life support mods in the past, but none of them were just right for me. Even USI-LS, with all its configurability, is a bit too unfriendly in Career mode, where often it ends up that probes are much more viable than crewed missions. I have no experience modding or coding in C#, but with interest, help, and a little more time on my hands I would love to try. My concept aims to encourage resupply missions without mandating them, as well as encouraging big, multi crew motherships without pesky hab requirements. My concept is here if anyone has feedback on it.
