As I remember, Squad Hosted a KSP Good Idea/Bad Idea video competition waaaay back. As I remember, there was a winner, but I cannot seem to find it. Am I out of my mind? am I imagining things? is the video gone? or is it still there, hidden somewhere on you-tube?

Hey guys, I finally got around to finishing episode 1. In the end it took me a lot longer then expected to build the Hydra V as I ran into a bug which resulted from having too many collision nodes. My thanks to e-dog for figuring that out, I literally wouldn't have been able to make this episode without knowing that. After that I had to spend hours reinforcing the Hydra so that it didn't collapse a few seconds after launch. I've never built such a tall and skinny rocket before so this was another challenge. I then got stuck recording the launch as I wasn't happy with the stock smoke effects. After about 3 days on the hotrockets thread sebi.zzr came to my rescue with the config I had been asking for and would have never been able to create alone. Anyways, if you enjoy it, please like it on youtube and I'll keep making more. Enjoy! Episode 1: Liftoff It is the eve of the greatest undertaking in the history of Klaya; the launch of a massive rocket, the largest Kerbin has ever seen, standing 300 feet tall and weighing almost 2500 tons, the Hydra V is the pride of all of Klaya. In the boldest space mission ever devised, the Hydra V has one purpose: to land a Kerbonaut on each of Jool's five fabled moons. For more details see the Youtube page. A Short: The Showdown After detecting an impending nuclear missile launch by an extremist group, the Imperial Kernese Fleet must act quickly to prevent the massacre of innocents. With the silo lying thousands of miles from their nearest air base, the IKF must call upon Air One and Air Three of their elite orbital strike team; the Knievel Squad. For more details see the Youtube page. Trailer: The Red Turncloak This is my first KSP video. I was originally planning on making a more peaceful and less spaceship shattering video, but after watching some of Macey Dean's series I had the urge to blow ships up. It's kind of a trailer for the series I will hopefully get around to making sometime soon with the first episode being the peaceful one I just mentioned. This trailer follows a Hammerhead II - Cannon Frigate belonging to the Klayan military. After being sent on a mission to recover a faulty Hammerhead I, Aqua Two ends up in an explosive battle with the malfunctioning frigate. I hope you enjoy: In this video I used all stock parts except for MechJeb (http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/mechjeb/) which made many of the scenes possible. Thanks to the chatterer mod (http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/25367-0-23-5-Chatterer-v-0-5-9-3) and the Apollo 11 mission for the male voice overs. Thanks to EnvironmentalVisualEnhancements mod (http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/55905-0-23-5-7-3-EnvironmentalVisualEnhancements-NEW!-VolumetricClouds!) for making Kerbin pretty and lastly; thanks to Squad for making an awesome game! Other links: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxJtS7q4iRw Reddit: http://redd.it/26pf52 Epilogue (Read this after watching the video) While the origin of the hackers that took over Red One is still a mystery, this incident has taught the Klayan military invaluable lessons about space warfare. They found that the miraculous survival of Aqua Two was thanks to the older weaponry on board Red One and on closer analysis these weapons (the Viper Mk.I & 0.01 T cannon shells) were found to be almost obsolete against armoured opponents at close range. On the other hand Aqua Two was equipped with the latest weaponry at the time (Viper Mk.II - Short Range Torpedoes & .12 T cannon shells) Most importantly; the nation of Klaya now knows that its enemies grow bolder, and next time they shall find the Klayans better prepared. However; the question remains: who are they and what do they want? Mods used I always used to be a vanillaist, but I was eventually converted by mods that just make KSP look so much more awesome. Although I can't completely justify it; I have also started using plugins that make building and flying ships much less strenuous. On the other hand I try to stay away from part mods where the parts have utility. I find this keeps KSP a bit more challenging and encourages me to be more creative. The exception to this rule is Mechjeb. Mechjeb allows me to record the ships at obscure angles and not have to keep the ship on track without a navball at the same time. I will also use mod parts for purely aesthetic reasons. For example, without fairings I find the rockets often look wonky and unrealistic. Fairings do add some structural support, but this is shadowed by the price you pay for it in mass (Hydra V fairings added at least 20 tons to the payload).

My second attempt at a KSP cinematic. Took some tips from another Kerbalnaut, lemme know what ya think ^ _ ^

What's the best video editing software? Any tips?

So now that 1.1 is officially out, I thought id have some fun again.

Didn't see this section of the forums so I cross-posted over here; any tips or suggestions would be welcomed.

I made a video about everything in 1.1. You can watch it here! Give it a like if you liked it, and subscribe if you want more!

Hi guys, this is my first post here and my first KSP video. I hope you enjoy.

This is a new career series, from a novice/rookie youtuber. In fact, these are my first youtube videos ever. It took me quite a long time to learn to edit these, but I think I'm getting the hang of it. Two videos are up now, with another on the way, and lots, lots more to come. Special hat tip and thanks to Scott Manley for the inspiration. Any advice, tips, or suggestions are welcome! (both for KSP and video). Enjoy! Mission Logs for Entering the Cosmos!

Valentina Kerman was bored whilst Jeb, Bill and Bob were away exploring Tylo and the rest of the Jool system. After enlisting the help of Gus Kerman, she secretly constructed an aircraft behind Mort and Gene's back, which she named Speedy. If the boys were having fun, so should she! Well, here's my next video. First one since It's So Classic. I think I owe you guys one by now. It was actually supposed to be "Don't Stop Me Now" with lots of missions in it but I had so much film from this one plane flight that I put this together. I really hope you guys enjoy it and if you did, stay tuned for more! I'll post a craft file for the plane if you guys want it. It's actually really fun to fly! Thanks guys, and I hope you enjoyed! Thanks for reading this far too.

So I decided to send a base to Minimus. The design worked really well. Hope you guys enjoy!

Decided to have some fun in the SPH in KSP while waiting for the release of 1.1. Here is the result! Gotta love KSP!

Decided to use the stock Kerbal X to try to get to the Mun and back. Though a challenge, it was still a lot of fun for all Kerbals involved. P.S. Pretty epic Solar Eclipse at: 1:29

Challenged myself to get to the Mun and back using the Kerbal X, and got a spectacular surprise along the way. Thought id share!

I've set up a play list with all my Star Wars videos - now they're all in one place JR

Hi there, I filmed my contribution to a challenge, where you had to go to Minmus with less than 30 parts. However, less parts are always better, so I decided to go with the minimum, which should be 2 ;-) I drop the video here, cause I think it turned out quite well, and it's just 3.5 minutes which everyone who's intrested should have :-)

Hi! Not sure if everyone has already seen this, but here's a video of the solid fuel boosters that were used along with the Space Shuttle, from the launch to the reentry to the splashdown in the ocean. While the imagery is quite pretty, what's really amazing is the sound. It's scary and a bit cringy, but also hauntingly beautiful. It gives a glimpse of just how violent the forces in spaceflight are.

My last video was the "To Ike!" video I made. It was ok, but the quality wasn't that good and the music was not synced. This time, I hope I did better. I chose "Classic" by MKTO because I feel like we've all swung around the Mun at one point, so this video will probably relate as Classic. Well anyway, here is is!: Enjoy, and if there's anything to point out, do! It will make the next video better.

Hello! I spent some time making an SSTO VTOL with some mods and made a music video of it rescuing a capsule from Laythe. This is part 3 of the Laythe trilogy but it can be viewed separately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4wzOJlYOok

Hi guys! So here's part 2 of me trying to figure out Kerbin's mass and radius from within KSP. I hope you enjoy! As always, feedback is appreciated!

Hey! So I spent an hour or two making this video about reentering Kerbin's atmosphere. It ain't a masterpiece, but it sure was fun making it. Anyways, here you go! Enjoy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MR7lk-bAkFs

Music: 3L - Three Magic You can find MK22 below↓

Hey guys, I though I'd share my first ever video. I try to calculate Kerbin's mass and radius using the in-game instruments. Please tell me what you think!

I'm sure a lot of you already know those, but for those who dont: von Karman lecture series. Sillicon valley astronomy lecture. I'm clearly fond of science documentaries, but after some time, it's always the same and gets rather boring. It just doesn't go deep enough into their subject and instead makes it "sensational and Hollywood alike" which is just annoying. Those lectures series open a new dimension for the science amateurs like myself. It's possible to learn a lot in it and it's made by the very scientists/researchers who work on the matter. Often audience questions are answered by the end of the lecture, which is also cool. If any of you know other series like those, please post them here. I'm eager for more!
