I intended for SMURFF to work with those mods, there's some code specifically to handle them -- but it's also possible something broke while I've been away. One thing that's tricky about LH2 is that it's very low-density, so you need much bigger tanks to hold a comparable mass of fuel. If you just swap out the tank type in-place, there will be less fuel and therefore (possibly) less delta-V, even with the higher Isp. The way to be sure is to add tanks until the total mass is the same as the original LF/O vehicle, and then compare delta-V.

I haven't got my RSS install upgraded to 1.12.5 yet, but I just tried SMURFF in my test install and it seems to be working. As a quick test, if you load up the stock Kerbal X in the VAB, it should give you 8850 m/s with SMURFF, compared to 'only' 6428 m/s in the stock game. Even with SMURFF, you'll still need to make pretty substantial rockets to get into space, and even more so to go interplanetary -- approximately 9.5 km/s of delta-V to get into Earth orbit (you only need 3.5 km/s or so for Kerbin), plus another 3+ km/s to escape. The Saturn V had a launch mass of nearly 3,000 tons (compare to 130 tons for the Kerbal X) to put about 140 tons into Earth orbit and send 44 tons towards the Moon, of which 15 tons landed on the Moon and 5 came back to Earth.

Kerbas_ad_astra replied to Nertea's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
The RPM config files don't have pages defined for the A/B/C buttons. I've just made a pull request to add them, but Nertea's busy working on KSP 2 so it may be a while before it gets addressed. In the meantime, you can copy this patch into your GameData folder to enable them! EDIT: Be sure to update DPAI to version 6.11 or later, so it can handle NFP's different button layout. -

I remember getting that myself, and I think it is related to RCSBA. It might be disabled by pressing the number '5' or '6', but likewise, it's been a long time. Updating this mod for KSP 1.12 is on my todo list, including looking at step rotations, but things have been busy lately, and diving into the code is as much a learning experience for me as it is for any of you...

Should be. The easiest way I can think to do this would be to start with just Ven's Stock Revamp, take the ModuleManager cache file to get the VSR-patched part configs, and then change all the part names to have 'VSR' on the end or whatever so they're "new parts". Then delete the "VenStockRevamp/Squad/Data" subfolder (not the full Squad subfolder, or else all of Ven's models go away too!), the PathPatches folder, and then install Restock, and everything should probably not break.
-
It's possible to delete the "Squad" and "PathPatches" folders and just have Ven's new parts on their own, but otherwise I'm not aware of a good way to make VSR and Restock play nice together. You could construct a patch that lets both Ven's and Nertea's variants coexist for fuel tanks and maybe probe cores, but that will be much more difficult or perhaps impossible for engines, RCS thrusters, and any other functional parts.

The final major release of Ven's Stock Revamp is here! V1.16.0 "Too Much Space In Space" Updated to new models and variants in KSP 1.10, 1.11, and 1.12. No longer revamping RV-105 RCS thruster (Squad's revamps are fine enough, and Ven's model isn't set up to be flexible with variants) RT-1 "Cricket", RT-2 "Grasshopper", and RockoMAX models (from Ven's new parts) are now also applied to the stock FM1 "Mite", F3S0 "Shrimp", and S2-33 "Clydesdale" respectively. The RT-1, RT-2, and RockoMAX are now marked as 'TechHidden'. Ven's Mk 5 Strip Light is also now 'TechHidden' because there's a better striplight (that actually emits light!) in the stock game. Renamed "Part Bin" subfolder to "PartBin", to accommodate Module Manager patches Localized SpaceX-style landing leg (missed this one back in VSR 1.10) Fixed Nose Cone Mk7 patch. Fixed some config errors in LV-T15 "Dachsund" and LV-900 "Beagle" engines. Fixed loading errors from IVA props. (Gated RPM modules behind "NEEDS" blocks, deleted unfinished models.) Restored a few missing textures. Fixed RT-20 "Sickle" model and adjusted node location accordingly. Fixed model location on BACC Thumper. Set up inventory configs for Ven's new parts.

Apologies for the delayed response, but I've fixed this in my development, release coming very soon! To those asking after Ven's Mk1-2 pod revamp...yeah, I like how it looks, too, but the windows are in a different place than the Mk1-3 IVA and I don't have the skill set to make a new IVA (or adjust the revamp model accordingly).
