    I've been wanting that too. @Omega482 these models look amazing, and I can't wait to try and use them RSS/RO (albeit at an edited scale)

    Prerelease would be amazing, if that's able to be done!

    @Omega482 A beta release would be amazing because then we can test it to see if it works with other kk mods. (TSC) *Cough cough* an excuse to play with them *cough couch*.

    But what is stockalike these days? Prior to 1.4 and Making History. This fitted perfectly into the stock parts. Now, barely anything that was used to be "stockalike" doesn't fit anymore. Squad really has gone for a more modern and whiter look. I am not sure if I should take that direction as well. Probably not any time soon. Like @Stone Blue told me the other day, KSP is changing. (Not really the direction I wanted it to go) but oh well.

    And yeah for a way more realistic look I highly recommend the Launcher Pack by @Kartoffelkuchen. Those models are really nice and give you a real looking Falcon 9!

    Yeah the devs switched everything to be more like real rockets which I like that they are doing that but I feel like they are ruining the comical effect ksp used to have.

    Also I'm currently customizing my ksc with TSC.

    I agree with the post above. 

    Also, the falcon 9 has this unrealistic feeling in the main fuel tank's textures. Would love if you make it a bit more realistic looking like it's real life counterpart. 

    Be aware this mod is designed to be stockalike not a perfect replica if you want that go install launchers pack.

    Background info: A height map is a 2D grayscale image used to represent or generate a 3D surface. The lowest elevations are represented as black and the highest as white with a continuum of grays in between representing intermediate elevations. In my canyon image above I used an actual elevation map of the grand canyon. The height map for this something like this:

    However, to get started you can use the height maps included with the mod.

     

    Step 1. Travel to your desired location. Use tools like Vessel Mover or HyperEdit to make this easier.

    Step 2. Press CRTL+ k to bring up the Kerbal Konstructs editor

    Step 3. Press the EDIT MAP DECALS button

    Step 4. Press the SPAWN NEW MAPDECAL button, the Mapdecal Editor window should appear.

    Step 5a. Click the HEIGHT MAP  button and select a height map;

             5b.  Since you just want a flat area to build on, select the AllBlack height map. This map won't have any variation within, just smoothing at the edges so it matches surrounding terrain;

             5c. Set parameters, RADIUS (try something like 2000 to 5000 depending on base size), ABSOLUTE OFFSET (this is altitude for the lowest part of your map decal, set it to approximately the existing ground level at your site) & HEIGHTMAPDEFORMITY (this is the difference in elevation between whites and blacks on the heightmap, since we are using an all black map this doesn't matter, but it is important for all other maps), these values are in meters. Press APPLY & SAVE, and inspect your work. 

    You can changes and edits to your parameters and position then press APPLY & SAVE again.

     

    Post pics of what you make!

    Now how can I change terrain texture to the KSC green instead of dark green?

    What are you trying to do? I may be able to answer soem questions too. I've had great success making cool terrain. One of these days I may get around to releasing something. Here are some pics I took last night of a canyon system I added in between the KSC and the eastern mtn range.

    The Dragon 2 Pod gets very unstable when reentering. It spins wildly when above 50000/40000m. Am I doing it wrong? Playing on stock version of game 1.4.1. Thanks!

    yeah in mine it refuses to go heat shield first and goes broadside like Starship. wait how is it stock if you have TE installed? do you mean no other mods than TE and it's dependencies?
