SpaceLaunchSystem

I think your best option would be Interstellar. It has some extremely high tech tree items (like the Alcubierre Drive)

Well, I want to make parts.

Hey everyone, I want to know how to get into modding. I know this will sound bad, but I have no experience in coding. I have just started using Blender, but I would prefer using SketchUp and importing it into Blender. I am also confused about texturing/mapping in blender. Anyone think they can help? PM me with a good tutorial.

I'll try a fresh stock install.

I'm talking about the dock on a mac (as in the thing with the application icons.) Whenever I open KSP (which i've reinstalled; it didn't do this before) The dock hides itself. I don't think my mods are really that important. But, here they are AerojetKerbodyneAnimatedDecouplers Firespitter Klockheed_Martian Klockheed_Martian_Special Modulefixer.dll ModuleManager.2.5.1.dll NASAmission RealChute SDHI SmokeScreen Squad TweakScale Virgin Kalactic my log can be found here.

I removed all of the NearFuture mods. I'll see if that works

Well, I did what you said, but KSP still crashes when I try to revert a flight and I have to re open it.

I'll reinstall NearFutureSpacecraft and try what you said with ActiveTextureManagement

When I revert a flight (like the title says) KSP just goes black and I can't do anything but force quit.

Going to replace those jets with TURBOJETS!

Where's the download? I can only find one for the test parts and prebuilt craft.

You mean Aerojet Kerbodyne, right? I just found that mod.

Ok. Thanks!

So basically i'm wondering about ranks (you know, the little words that display under your username.) Right now, mine is "Spacecraft Engineer" i'm wondering if it is possible to change what it says. It's probably possible, because I've seen users with ranks that probably aren't built in to the forums (i.e. HypeTrain Driver, Spherical Scientist, etc.) I want to know if it is possible to edit mine, and if so, how to do it.

I agree. Neither China nor the ESA have a spacecraft called orion. If they did, it would be highly unlikely that it would ALSO launch dec. 4th.

yeah. why?

So i'm trying out Blender to make my first mod. I want to make a Solid Rocket Booster Pack. On the wiki it says that I have to export it as a COLLADA file (.dae). When I export it as a dae and try to open it, Preview says "It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize." I know Preview can open COLLADAs because I have done it before. Can anyone help? P.S. I'm on a mac P.P.S Here's the error message:

Here's the new thread I have a basic idea of modeling. I was looking at this tutorial on the wiki, and it says I have to UV unwrap and texture the model. I will probably sound like a noob, but how do you do that? I am extremely confused. Please Help!Here's the part i am confused about: Step 5 - Unwrapping Your Asset This step varies from program to program. Refer to your program's documentation to make sure. Essentially, this part binds the faces of your model to a specific spot in your texture file. There really isn't much to be said about this; experience is what makes good unwraps. Once you have distributed the faces around the UV plan, make sure to make a render/snapshot of the UV position, saving the resulting image in a PNG file that has a format in powers of two (128x128 or 256x256 is ideal, 512x512 for high-detail meshes. 1024x1024 is beginning to be a bit large.) EDIT: I figured it out! Now I need help with the blender COLLADA (.dae) export.

Ok. I'll try blender.

I've always wanted to make a mod. The only problem: No experience. I've looked at the wiki tutorials but the 3-d modeler I have is Sketchup. I was wondering if anyone could give me a tutorial on modding with sketchUp.

Great idea! I never even thought about that!

What engine were you using?!

I was thinking, it would be cool if there was a Kerbal Space Center Visitor Complex. You could generate funds from the admission, use funds to add new attractions, and it would be all around awesome. EDIT It would probably look something like the Kennedy Space Center visitor complex:

I forgot to mention, but it doesn't have to be colored black like the real thing (that is impossible to accomplish without mods). It can be white like all the parts are.
