Contares brakes no other mod if the prescribed conditions are met.

It's simple, if you cant run RealPlume/Smokescreen you cant use Contares as standard installation.

The other way is to delete all RealPlume Settings in Contares (in the next release that is one folder) and you has contares without effects.

You're mod is excellent and I love what it adds, but what you're doing is going to draw a lot of potential downloaders away.
Contares breaks mods for people who can't or don't want to run RP or SS. The alternative is breaking Contares itself. Is that really the message you want to send to people? Do what I say or don't use my mod.
I would highly suggest you reconsider your position on stock plumes, or at least find someone who can give Contares the stock plumes people need to run the mod with other mods. I would hate to see this mod get hate just because of stock plumes vs. RP/SS.
And why even remove stock plumes? RP/SS overrides the stock plumes anyway, so there is no need to remove them.

If you want stock-plumes, they are free to design and add this via patch to Contares. The previously existing stock-plumes are more or less taken over by copy/past from Tantares/LV and fit usually not the engines

Deleting the RP/SS settings does not break Contares.

[ironic on] If they can live with stock-plumes, then even without plumes. Without, it is still better than to insult my aesthetic feel by stock-plumes [ironic off]

It breaks contares visually.
And I wasn't trying to insult you in anyway.

I'm trying, with my terrible English to express something finer. I do not feel insulted. Installs the mod according to the specifications and all is well. If mods not compatible - of which there are more than enough - then one of the mods must give up. It is their decision what mod they decide to and it is in their hands whether the mods become a couple in.

It is, from my hand, give no matching stock-plumes. Those who want to do the job is welcome and has to live with my terrible english.

Cheers

What does it matter?

I am one of 7.39 billion people.
Only 4.47% can call a native English speaker.
6.77% have English as a second language.
20.3% can some English (finger picks).
68.46% of the world population does not understand English.

Looks great. Is this inspired by India's new mini shuttle?

It's a pure fictional spaceplane. The technical requirements inevitably lead to similarities. As an old RC aircraft designer i like V-tailsOgival wings are so far unsurpassed for high supersonic speeds and offer passable gliding properties.

Hi Hraban, just a quick thanks for your hard work. You've expanded my space program nicely. 

Thank you very much!

This one is more like ISRO-Shuttle. Quick builded and kerbalized in size.

length = 6.3 m (like original)
wingspan = 3.6 m (like original)
diameter or the body = 1.25m (more then original ~ 1.0m)

for Contares it's better to rescale to 50% :wink:

Hmm, I was a bit boring and so was the ISRO-Shuttle RLV-TD[K] born for KSP as 0.625 m version. A little fine-tuning to the textures and can be started with Unity and the configuration.

is the version with the more round nose (the first you posted) deprecated? Because I like that X37-like thing!

Project updates:

The RLV-TD-K (ISRO) Glider works fine in KSP but the Texture need more tuning.

The first texture-steps for the fictional Spaceplane named GOGI are on the way.

Does the ISRO shuttle have a cargo bay? What's their respective diameters? 

The ISRO RLV-TD-(Kerbal) has no cargo bay but integrated science instruments.

body diameter = 0.625m
length = 3.3m
wingspan = 1.8m
full loaded = 1.8t

The GOGI Spaceplane with cargo bay has the following dimensions:

body diameter = 1.25m
length = 6.0m
wingspan = 4.4m
high = 1.57m
weight without cargo = 3.5t
+ 1 or 2 small REX MONOP L Engines
+ 2 P-M22 Tantares Solar Panels
= 3.6t
+ Cargo max. 0.8t

Any chance you could offer the Kliper as a seperate download?

Or maybe even a separate "spaceplane" pack with the new ones as well (they look awesome!)

The claims of Contares users are too different and the effort to manage multiple download packages is disproportionate.
Should more small and micro Space Planes will give thought its own package.
