pTrevTrevs Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 If there are any intentions to expand this mod to feature more texture variants, might I recommend a few? I have photographs to back all these up, but I've also verified them against this guide to Orbiter external markings. From what I can tell, it appears accurate. The wings of Discovery, Atlantis, and Endeavour during their early days all had a different insulation pattern than is depicted in base SOCK. Instead of a smooth line as seen in the mod, it appeared much more jagged. It appears this pattern disappeared around the time the orbiters switched from the NASA worm and black wing tiles to the Meatball and white tiles: Quote Additionally, the same three orbiters also had a different pattern of thermal blankets along their sides during the "Worm Era". It's very subtle, and the untrained eye can miss it, but if you know what to look for you'll see that there are significantly more blankets on the orbiters during this period than later. As a matter of fact, they cover almost the entire payload bay, leaving only a small strip at the top of the fuselage bare: Quote You can also just barely see the extra blankets on the rear of the payload bay doors in the previous section's photo of Atlantis launching. I believe that photo is from her first mission, STS-51J. More OMS pod variants for versatility. Columbia and Challenger were identifiable by their gold umbilical plates, which are represented here already with the early OMS pod texture. However, both orbiters were eventually updated to have black tiles on their OMS pods, while their gold plates were retained throughout their service. Conversely, Discovery and Atlantis both flew their first missions with white OMS pods like were seen on the first Shuttle flights, only neither of them ever had gold umbilical plates. (Technically, Atlantis flew her first two missions with black tiles on her starboard OMS pod only, but come on, even a pedant like myself has to draw the line somewhere). Quote I used to have a way better version of this photo, but it's not necessary to show the updated OMS pods. Additionally, while you can't see the white umbilical plates in this image (Discovery in the VAB before STS-41D), you can clearly see the full-white OMS pods, virtually identical to what was flown on the first missions of Columbia and Challenger.

Emilius73 Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 (edited) Would it be possible to create a toasty Discovery variant with black wing tiles? Or separate the toasty texture so it can be applied to any variant? That aside, loving the textures!

What would be great is a single .psd file with the appropriate layers to apply to the various variations of the shuttle textures. I understand that may be a bit of work to do, but it would be fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrdinarySpaceNerd Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Hello! So I installed this mod and there are some issues that I am having, So for some reason all the textures work on all of the parts besides the wings, the textures do not show up on those and I have no clue how to fix it, does anybody have any Ideas?

DJ Reonic Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Any chance of a toasty Columbia texture? I know KSP2 is about to drop, but it would still be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologize for the late reply, do you still have this problem? If yes, you could probably check if you have all the important dependencies (B9PS and SOCKrecolored) On 1/25/2023 at 4:50 AM, DJ Reonic said: Any chance of a toasty Columbia texture?

I'm amazed at your knowledge of the shuttle variants! In fact, I have started work on additional OMS pods variants, but I've kept it on hold because I didn't think it would be that important to do the other variants since the difference are pretty subtle to the untrained eye (compared to the wings for example). It's also because I have stuff to do IRL so I don't really have a lot of time for modding. Maybe I'll do it when I have free time, but that probably won't happen until a while I'm afraid.

hugoraider Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 @Arthurism Hey there! I'm currently working on a Buran mod based on benjee10's recently released Buran parts for SOCK, and I was wondering if it would be OK if I reused your Buran textures for the cargo bay? I'll give full credit of course. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiverix Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Could it be possible for the Discovery (Toasty) effect to be a seperate mesh, so that we can make columbia/challenger wings toasty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaos113 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Would anybody want a moonraker stripe varient of the challenger and Columbia tiled textures to match with sock recolored thermal blanket Columbia, if yes ill consult with arthurism on implementing my custom textures i built off of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm I don't think so. I haven't tried mesh editing before because everytime I do something related to anything other than textures it never goes well lol. Also I don't have just the toasty overlay since I was not the one who made it. You can ask lemoncup tho Sorry for the late replies, I'm not really that active anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toaster355 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) Strange, the wings refuse to use textures from this mod. Gamedata Folder: Spoiler Log: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Yp7DLGnjPRtSDgkNG-9ZWqd1wS2Yctqu/view?usp=sharing EDIT: Nevermind, it turns out the ColumbiaWings extra was conflicting with it. Whoops!

Jebby Boi Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Hey, so just a quick question, when loading the game, B9 Throws an error related to the delta wing textures. No big deal, just keep playing, right? Well actually, this causes them to just not load. Idk if this is just B9 being old or some change to this mod, but they don't work. Any help is appreciated, I love SOCK and this mod and want to get the best experience. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the delay, I've just opened KSP forums today Do you still have this problem or do you have it under control now? If you still have the problem, what do you mean by "not loading" does the wings part not load? or is it only the SOCKrepainted variants? or maybe all of the parts just dont have their texture variants?

KSP_Recreations Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Are the window shutters included with the mod or are they separate? I look for them in both the search bar and the Utility and Robotics sections of the VAB parts list and I can't find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, not directly in the mod folder but in an Extras folder. There are also instructions on where to put which folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
