What does this mod do?
SOCKrepainted adds more texture switches to benjee10's Shuttle Orbiter Construction Kit. Textures such as:

  • Tiled cockpit, payload bay, elevons, delta wings, and rudder (Columbia & Challenger)
  • Toasted texture to match Discovery's STS-133 appearance (by lemon cup)
  • Aft fuselage with no black tile blobs (Early Columbia & Challenger)
  • Space Station Enterprise texture (by Starstro)
  • Space Station Enterprise window shutters (by MATVEICH_YT)
  • Early Discovery blanket pattern delta wings texture

Do I need any other mods?
The dependencies of this mod are:

What version of KSP is this mod for?
This mod was created for KSP 1.12.3 but it should have the same compatibility as SOCKrecolored.

Here are some mods I recommend for playing KSP in general:

Looks great! Would you eventually consider adding more minute changes that the orbiters had? Examples would be Challenger's unique hatch pattern, Discovery's teardrop, or the tile patterns early orbiters had on their OMS pods and elevons:

I'm currently working on the elevons and is planning to do the OMS pods. I could probably also do Challenger's hatch later on. But I haven't figured out how to make DIscovery's teardrop since the left/right texture of the part is the same (with one mirrored.

Not the best solution but you could make a flag and we can put that over the right area

How will this work? do you dock to it, load it in the VAB, what do the animations and spinning look like? is it a action group or a stage? looks AWESOME 

I was just thinking about that, particularly the spinning bit, so I looked it up and I hate to correct but (I'm pretty sure) due to the IUS already having an attitude control system, the stage was not spun up before deployment, unlike the Payload Assist Motor (PAM).
