Hey, the inflatable habitat is pink! I don't think that is supposed to be like that. Help!

You are correct, it is not supposed to be pink.

Are you running on KSP 1.4.x with the latest version of Textures Unlimited installed? 

Also make sure to run Kerbal with a shortcut that has -force glcore at the end of it.

Hi! With the update of 1.4.x, KSP now has an ability to dynamically modify the crew capacity of a part through ModuleAnimateGeneric, which I see you are using on the KA330 and KEAM. Adding this to Kerbalow going forward will keep players from launching Kerbals in uninflated modules.

Here's the example, from the InflatableAirlock part from Making History expansion. The CrewCapacity in the .cfg is set to 0, but it accomplishes dynamic crew capacity through ModuleAnimateGeneric.CrewCapacity

	MODULE
	{
		name = ModuleAnimateGeneric
		CrewCapacity = 1
		animationName = AirlockDeploy
		actionGUIName = Toggle Airlock
		startEventGUIName = Open Airlock
		endEventGUIName = Close Airlock
		allowAnimationWhileShielded = False
	}

What about Kerbalism compatibility?

It looks like Kerblism was updated to 1.4 just a couple of weeks ago. I'll now try and investigate this option. Thanks!

I'd actually like to begin texturing and modeling, and a revamp of this might be nice.

I don't think they are still around.

Direct messages go straight to my email though, you can't miss me there.

You are free to do as you wish provided CC-BY is followed. FYI - Textures Unlimited is not updated to 1.10 and this is what has prevented an official update for this (not that re-texturing is going to be part of my planned update) but keep that in mind if you aim to release anything, it should wait until T.U. is 1.10 (if that will even happen? not sure) - But, in testing, the n-1 version of T.U. (1.9) worked for me without any problems for the blendshapes purposes.

@bcink  The Spacedock link is broken, this one works:  https://spacedock.info/mod/1755

@Clamp-o-Tron

While I'm not a part modder, feel free to reach out for help with configs, etc

They are great looking parts

Sorry @bcink— will you be maintaining this going forward, or would I need to step up to keep these updated? Just want to check what the plans are.

I will update for 1.10 if Textures Unlimited gets updated but won't be doing anything new for it.

Any chance this mod will be revived? The idea of inflatable parts sounds interesting!

Thanks.

Howdy!

It's possible but I can't promise. The main reason is due to the reliance on Textures Unlimited. I don't exactly want to update it to have it require another mod that is not updated  =/

However - if you install Textures Unlimited and this pack, I think it will work. There may be some Textures Unlimited issues. Not 100% sure.

Thanks :}
