@Plecy75 I stuffed some stuff inside. Fuel tanks or something.

I believe it was a (possibly tweakscaled) Juno/Chryslus engine shroud, with 4 (again, possible tweakscaled) of the stock radial attach nodes stuck onto it.

So, this happened today... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbiting_Solar_Observatory' EDIT: On Github.

Thanks for the explanation. Also, I missed all the images you have been posting on this page the last couple weeks. Awesome stuff!!! Really makes me want to redo the RCS booms I made for my upper stages.

Nice! I like how each Kerbal has their own little window. Though, Hraban, you know I mean this in the nicest of ways, but why do you use non-stockish colors for your windows? I understand you don't seek to emulate the stock style but it does make them clash. I'm just curious what the reasoning is - if you have some other inspiration, or simply dislike the stock color, etc?

soooo... yeah

Stream is up, going to be on and off all day (woohoo, still on break!) https://www.twitch.tv/cobaltwolfy

Going to be streaming a fair amount tomorrow, until then here's a taste...

@Beale I think the time to adjust colors will be later, once we can see the full rocket. And I WILL be asking for the source PSDs to make one that looks like the old style Tantares Soyuz. If you would be so kind as to keep a link hosted in the OP...

That's definitely not our Saturn. And for how to build stuff, our manual is hopefully useful. I kithed a gurl last night it was cool.

its cool, me and him talk a lot outside the forums. There is also someone else actively working on improving the Apollo and LEM IVAs. the post was a dig at that person haha.

Can anyone get me orthographic/engineering drawings of the Lunar Orbiter and Ranger/Mariner 1+2 probes? I need to make sure the proportions for these are right.

Noted. Don't know. I want to see how many probe parts I can crank out. I tend to lose interest in them pretty quickly for some reason. EDIT: If I do make the Ranger truss, someone has to promise to come up with a cool non-standard probe design using it.

ur a slacker ur gonna have you mud license removed

akrin i dont wan any of ur sazz

Well, at that point the couple random Russian bits would all be in the probes package. And yes, considering the thing has been 90% textured since August!

So, after discussing it with @Jso and @akron, we are indeed going to be working on probes for a little bit (sorry for those that were waiting on Skylab, etc... I still want to get the last Apollo bits done ASAP. I just haven't been in a good environment for setting up my tablet lately, and, well, I wanted a change of pace), mostly finishing up all that stuff I modeled anywhere from February 2016 - almost a year ago! - to June of this year. The current probe stuff will, at long last, be split off from the mainline Bluedog_DB release - this includes, basically, everything in the Antennas, Probe Expansion, Science, and Explorer folders. They'll be getting proper normal and specular maps as well, which previously had only been for the LVs and spacecraft. Because the internal names of the parts won't change, this SHOULD NOT BE SAVE BREAKING - provided you download both the Bluedog_DB and Bluedog_Probes (or whatever the name winds up being) folders. Since certain things in the normal Bluedog_DB folder would still depend on probe parts (the <0.625m decouplers, the Scimitar antenna for Apollo), we are going to have to figure out some sort of texture sharing - the probes would probably include dummy Bluedog_DB folders with only the necessary textures.

You want em, you make em. Most modders would rather spend time playing games, they're just driven to make the things they want to play with. That drive only goes so far, and usually doesn't extend to IVAs. Or Launch clamps. Or landing gear...

There aren't enough parts to make it right now. I'll see what I can do this week, I was just telling @akron I wanted to work on probe stuff.

I for one would love to see all my silly off sizes be more legitimate.
