Ultimate Steve

Hello!

I realize I've neglected my mission reports a lot. There are a few reasons for this, one being that the second half of 2017 was a really bad span of time for me, my free time dwindled, I got really into Minecraft for a month... The list goes on an on.

However, if all goes well, you all can expect Chapter 40 of Project Intrepid tomorrow, now with visual mods!

I got a really nice desktop computer for Christmas, and I just transferred the PI folder over today and got everything updated to 1.3.1 (previously it was on 1.2.2 or 1.1.1) and accidentally went crazy with CKAN. At first it was just KER/KAC, my essentials, but then I decided to add some visual enhancements... Then some more... And more... And then I threw in TweakScale, Hangar Extender, KAS/KIS, and a bunch of other cool things.

However, even with dozens of mods, I wanted to preserve the "spirit" of the stock game. The only mods that add parts to my knowledge are KER, KAS, and KIS which aren't really that big, so the ships will stay the same. For now I'm going to keep TweakScale to a minimum.

My new plan is to do shorter chapters rather than long ones, to improve the per-chapter turnaround. After 2-3 chapters of PI I'm going to try and finish a music video, do another chapter of Voyage, then shift gears into SRB grand tour for another 2-3 episodes, or at least that's the plan.

Come to think of it I shouldn't have started half a dozen projects, it's really hard to maintain them all at once. I'll try not to start any more at least until I finish one.
