  1. Guys, sorry to be a bit off topic now but... do you know what is the mod that Lowne uses on his videos to show the insides of the kerballed pods? I've been trying to find info for ages and (yeah, disaster me) still couldn't. So, any clues? Thanks! J
  2. How can I not like this post? But missing more pictures of your Esprit! Looking good!
  3. Mmm... then you can launch the Independence, rendez-vous with the comet (now that we have them stock!) that's about to hit Kerbin, drill, deploy the nuclear warheads, which will be detonated by Bruce Kerman (RIP in the process) to save Grace Kerman and the rest of the Kerbalkind... no? Too much? Sorry just a bit bored of the new career in 1.10 with limited mods so I just needed to let my imagination go with the flow a bit. And your post was perfect for that Cheers! J
  4. I don't know bruh, but I really like the VEPM(tm) name... by the way, did you assemble the VEPM in 5 independent launches? if that was so, good job with the 4x double-docking! I remember my first one a few years ago, each section made of 2 orange tanks... it was painful, and they were only 2x. In fact I had to set the orbit at around 400km to have enough time to try and retry and retry and finish while still had light. I don't use many lights in my ships...
  5. @Selective Genius, and you can do the 'out of Kerbin's SOI' as a small and almost free addition to the Minmus mission
  6. I'd say, make one in the poles and challenge @Flying dutchman... what do you say, @Lisias, @Triop? unfortunately my driving skills are shait (Lisias, read it in portuguese and understand it in 'english not from the queen' )
  7. Those figures are totally crazy... luckily you set the aerodynamic surfaces downwards to help the 'rover' stick to the surface if they weren't there, it would have flown a few meters and then probably performed a rapid unplanned disassembly when touching the ground back again
  8. I think you need to create a png of 256x160 pixels, give it a name, put it in the (your KSP folder)\Gamedata\Squad\Flags folder.... but I never did that before, it's just a guess
  9. I may try something similar. Instead of all the structure made of truss, I may use structural hollow tubes. They may also be useful to attach the biggest wheels (well, huge loads may need resilient wheels)
  10. Farscape Technologies has reached new, faster and more exotic ways to travel across the universe, after the (in)famous Crichton Kerman developed his trans-wormhole equations. Thus, we are proudly introducing the Moya Engine. Warranty void if used to cross to another dimension, or to mess up with the timeline.
  11. I was laughing to death with the sudden unplanned take off, your reaction, the stunts while trying to land again... and @Delay's reaction 'NOOO'
  12. Listening and watching but I don't have my channel so I won't comment on the chat there hahaha
  13. I've been trying almost all day to prepare a new install for JNSQ with Ad Astra... but OMG it is SO DIFFICULT to make it work properly...
  14. I was just checking the whole post as I also have no clouds (and I'm not newbie using mods lol) and just stumbled into your last post... Just focus on getting better, mate! I think we all can wait until you are back
  15. Maybe you can try to do something like this, if you want the radial docking ports in an 'inwards' fashion: Feel free to use this https://kerbalx.com/myrddin/Harmony I did my Harmony-alike exactly like that but adding the elevons between the docking ports to 'make it prettier'
  16. These days I made two entries for this challenge: The first one was a super cheap mission, with no capsules at all https://imgur.com/gallery/FNLFvoX The second one was more proper https://imgur.com/gallery/0ITvgbJ
  17. Seriously... Mission was going flawlessly. Landed next to the NAM, deployed the MSEPs with the rover... when I went back to the flag, Bob and the lander... there was no lander and no Val. Typical problem with the colliders while switching vessels on the ground, I guess. I want to use a lot of bad words now but I don't want to feel the rage of the moderators I may try again tomorrow. Edit: And finally done in a 'proper' way. Still overengineered, but I wanted to try to mantain the Saturn-alike launching vehicle... And it means tall, big and overpowered. I had to tune down a bit the Vectors of the first stage anyway! This is the 'Saturn alike' rocket: Album here: https://imgur.com/gallery/0ITvgbJ And now the score... PS: and I seriously hate the problems with the colliders Again, @kspnerd122, thank you for this challenge!
  18. Hahaha! Thanks! Yeah, I mostly thought about how the confinement can mentally affect someone... Nah, actually it was just about doing the challenge with as less funds as possible And I think this is a very Kerbal way to do it LOL I ran the challenge again this morning with a proper SatV rocket, command modules and so on. Still a bit overengineered, as the previous one, so I'll fine tune a few things later on today and make a second entry. And this time landing in the NAM, not in a random place... I used to suck on precise landings, but this morning I discovered that I'm not that bad anymore landing less than 50m away from the NAM Cheers! J
  19. Hey people! I made it, finally. I have to say first of all that I ran the challenge a few times already. Mistakes were made, time was wasted... this time I was soooo sick and tired of it all that, despite the horrible basic mistake of entering the Mun sphere of influence in retrograde trajectory (sighs...) I didn't want to run it again. So... didn't land remotely close to the NAM. As you may see in the album, my approach, despite being quite correct IMHO, is TOO KERBAL for many people. I wanted to do something a bit different A few weeks ago posted in 'What did you do today on KSP' thread a super cheap Apollo style (just 2 kerbals, no rover, no MSEP, no satellites), for less than 14500 funds. And if I hadn't read wrong... I could have done this for less than 60000, but I was using the 1.875 parts from the MH without actually knowing that they belonged to the expansion. Disaster, yes Detail of the engines used: Stage1: 1 Skipper, 4 Reliant; Stage2: 1 Reliant, 4 Terrier; Stage3: 1 Reliant; CM-SM: 2 Puff (no LOX here, only MEM runs on LOX); MEM1: 4 Spider: MEM2: 2 Spider Detail of the missing parts: No capsules at all; No RCS (the monoprop is only used to run the Puff's for the CMSM) Details of other weird things for the score (need validation): 1- the upper stage of the MEM, after Val and Bob are back to the CM with Jeb, is dettached. It becomes then a relay satellite. This satellite sets a collision orbit and ejects the command seats, structure and docking port. After, the orbit is corrected again. 2- MSEPs. The remotely guided rover deploys 3 MSEPs, more than 1km distance to the landing site, more than 1km distance between them. Then, keeps going further, total 20km. It is capable of being awake as the proper MSEPs, based on the internal battery of the OKTO, additional battery and solar panels... and carries its own scientific experiments. Can it be considered as a 4th MSEP? So, this is the album (I'm seriously tired and a bit frustrated about all the previous failures), almost all the explanations are in the album itself, if you don't mind I prefer not to post pic by pic)... https://imgur.com/gallery/FNLFvoX As for the score, I don't really mind much I may calculate it later on, after @kspnerd122 confirms if my entry is valid, due mostly to the lack of *ahem* those otherwise essential parts... and the previous 'need validation' things too Cheers! And thanks for the nice challenge!!! J
  20. At first I thought it was the X-33 from Angel-125... then a couple pics later I noticed it was stock Super good looking, another of your crafts for my collection (later when I finish work).
  21. Been there, done that, I also requested it to be considered as TOTM
  22. I... just finished... I'm in awe, mates. Congrats @Oraldo revak, waiting for the next batch already And also amazing original story, @Just Jim, and amazing ship designs
  23. Started watching "Emiko Station: The Movie" OK, maybe it's a bit off-topic as this is not me playing KSP but... I don't really care. I'm on chapter 3 already, it is AMAZING!!
  24. Starting Chapter 3 now can't stop!! And also downloading the whole video @1080p hehehe! Edit: Hm.... What to do to propose this as ToTM?
  25. So you broke the game already? that's no fun for the rest of us!
