Blufor878 Posted Wednesday at 08:35 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:35 AM (edited) I keep on making these, don't I? I didn't think this belonged in my main thread. There are many awesome parts mods in the KSP universe. But not every one comes with craft files for what the final products should look like (which to be clear is NOT a dig at the authors, the parts alone are worth the download). This topic will be devoted to craft files that fill the gaps and rosters of well known "real-world" parts mods like (among many others): -Bluedog Design Bureau by @CobaltWolf, @Zorg, @Jso, and @Invaderchaos -Eisenhower Astronautics by @EStreetRockets -Hephaistos (ULA Vulcan) by @Superpenguin160 And many others. So far I have released three craft. Two variants of the upcoming ULA Vulcan, Vulcan 564 and Vulcan-Centaur 401, and a variant of the proposed Titan LDC. I would also love the input of the mod authors and many creators on the site (I already feel @GoldForest's presence) to see what may or may not be missing. So welcome to my latest project. As for those first three craft, allow me to show some pictures and their respective download links.

Elro2k Posted Saturday at 06:51 PM Share Posted Saturday at 06:51 PM Awesome stuff! Down the line, I would love to see the LM variants from BDB, as well as the Ares 1 using parts from Artemis Construction Kit. Absolutely thrilled about these crafts, thank you so much!

Down the line, I would love to see the LM variants from BDB, as well as the Ares 1 using parts from Artemis Construction Kit. Absolutely thrilled about these crafts, thank you so much! I like your thinking, and I'm way ahead of you! I can't speak to the LM variants, but believe it or not I have several versions of Ares 1. Including variants representing earlier design drawings. List as follows: -Ares 1 using BDB "Herakles" tanks -Using Artemis/Delta IV tanks -Using ORANGES tanks, though it looks kinda strange because there aren't any 3.125m tanks (I could use all-tweak addon for tweakscale for this but I'm concerned it'll conflict with something, mainly procedural parts) -Using Delta IV tanks but recreating an early ESAS proposal where the first SRB stage was shorter and the upper stage was (much) longer and powered by an RS-25 derivative. -Cargo versions (It's almost an automatic for me to make a cargo version of a crewed rocket) I'm probably gonna post them on my main thread, simply because I'm not sure they're fully accurate representations of the proposals, but rather in the spirit of the concepts. Also most of the craft here rely on 2-3 mods at most (1 if possible), since they're meant to, well, fill in the gaps of premade craft in other mods. A lot of my ares rockets rely on 3-5 mods depending on what I'm going for. But in the meantime, I got something a bit different, but if you're a fan of hard sci-fi space movies, I'm sure you'll want to see this.
