The new J parts are slightly larger and use a new texture style so there would be a mismatch trying to use a part from a previous version, and this is just a test version, things like the docking adapter aren't in it yet.

Sinopei Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) I can`t use english well.... but I suggest something. About capacity of FuelTanks. Formerly you tell that reason of low capacity of fueltanks is it is designed for aircrafts, but I think OPT`s parts are good for spacecrafts TOO. I want you consider about to raise capacity of fueltanks. Heavy weight of fueltanks with high capacity can be solved in player`s discrtion. (We can adjust loadage of fueltanks in SPH or VAB) If you accept this suggestion, OPT will get more possibility And...... wil you add J inline docking port again?

This was in the original post, by the way, not hidden or anything... I suppose I should insert the disclaimer: Navigate to MediaFire at your own risk. I don't like the site for the same reasons that the Forum banned linking to it, their pop-up ads are frequently inappropriate for the content that one is trying to download (i.e. porn, etc.), or they flat-out contain malware such as viruses or Trojan worms that can infect your computer if you don't have strong anti-malware software installed, which everyone should. However, just because I don't like the site doesn't mean that others shouldn't be free to make their own choice whether to do business with them. So, I present the information freely, what you do with it is up to you. You're welcome. 'The hell?!? What, the forum moderators don't even want us using the WORD "MediaFire"?!? That's just as stupid as people saying "you know who" instead of "Voldemort"! Oh, and for some reason, they only changed the one instance... makes no sense.

Jimbodiah Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 (edited) Yeah, but is that really usefull?

Hey it's not up to me, I've no involvement with development of this mod, I'd much prefer if K.Yeon was using GitHub. I don't know why he's using Mediafire, I'm just saying the link isn't hidden, and seriously, how hard is it to copy and paste a link?

Jimbodiah Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 LOL, let's agree to disagree. I hope K is okay and enjoying himself. Awesome mod, my go-to for space planes (but I don't use them often enough). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatrnerd Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) I like the design of the stuff in this pack and it's such a shame to see it die. EDIT: Just noticed the release date for the test release. Nope, nope, nope. Jumping ship. I'm not waiting 5 months for a pre-release, let alone possibly up to a year for a full release.

Rushligh Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 worst case scenario: someone has to take the 1.7 parts and do their best to mimic the 1.8 properties. keep the wings and engines, but revert to the old k/j factors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raideur Ng Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Recently tested. everything works as advertised and quite incredibly as well. You fixed all the bugs noted in 1.7 and reduced the poly count on most of the models (For the better, they look hot as hell now). Engines are still absurdly over-powered and under-fueled, but you've noted that's for us to tweak. Overall, a mighty slick and impressive mod. I could suggest minor little bits and pieces to add to this, but you've hit all the big nails. Good job, if I find any bugs, I'll let you know, new favorite aerospace pack. First ship went into orbit like a glove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris206 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 1.8 is nice but was hoping for tiny things like being able to use tweakscale on all the parts. as of now you can adjust the wing sizes, but not the corresponding control surfaces. same with the schramjet. how do I get the mk2 ramjet into 1.8?

Rushligh Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 ... why not just use OPT 1.7, then replace the old wings and engines with the 1.8 ones. that's what i've done. If there are any other updates you can slowly sift the new parts into it (excluding main hull portions) until the release is complete. I may very well stick to 1.7 hulls simply because they're KSPI compatible, i like the old K cockpit, and i have a billion ships using their parts that i don't wanna loose.

Jimbodiah Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I really don't see the point in keeping anything from 1.8 as it's missing a lot of the parts, and the wings are too buggy to work with: takes me 5 minutes to put on each wing flap on correctly and most of the time they will not line up with the wing in 1 or more axis.

The reason he went back to using wings with separate control surfaces is because the ones with integrated surfaces never got their lift ratings right and I don't think there was a way in the game to separate the ratings for wings and controls without making them separate parts.

What release date are you talking about, he released the 1.8 v4.01 on 8/01/2016, ie Jan 8 although he actually released it Jan7, don't confuse 8/01/2016 to mean the next will be in August, although right now who can say? We can only hope everything is OK with K.Yeon but if this does eventually become an abandoned mod, it is under the creative commons license, so there is nothing stopping someone else from making parts that will fit it.

Jimbodiah Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Install it manually. @M_Ouellette I get why the flaps are there, but there should be a node to place the flap on, instead of surface attaching to a highly angled and curved area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
