  1. Hello there, I know I haven't been heard from in a long while, there is a reason, a diabolical one, but a reason. At any rate, I am waiting for a certain event to occur, then I will speak my peace.

    I hope the rest of you are enjoying the game, developing things, modding stuff, and all. I have not been playing the game, lost all interest in it, but hey that just a personal feeling. I think the game has merit, and cool ideas! The modders are awesome, the moderators nice, and I general the community is growing and maturing in ways never before seen.

    Well that's all for now, just babbling here that's all...

    "May the Force be with you."

  2. Pretty things? The redone Space Center? Now I am just as upset that they are not adding stuff like tweakables, redone drag, etc. But, the new Space Center uses LESS resources! The reason you must pay is because they need funding, I assume. Now I can't be certain, but they will not make a game that cannot be run by supercomputers :P

    But sir, the math don't add up, the most users on this forum site (record) is 4025, assuming its 25 bucks a copy, that's 103,000 bucks, windows didn't have a budget that big. And that 4025 is assuming they all have legit copies, most of the fixes that come up comes from the mod makers and they can't get paid. Lemme sell you a car, now you can't get paid to fix it, but we can. The ONLY thing that saves this "game" is the mod makers. I have given up on trying to run the newest version unit

    A mod maker fixes it. Then I will send him the 25 bucks. :P

  3. Before I get upset, are you saying this about .21 or all of the updates?

    21, when I was on 18, then 19, it was nice, now it plain Vacs, seems like they are more interested in making pretty things, rather than making effective things. I know this is a game that a couple of guys wanted to play with, but releasing a version, then tweaking it with pretty things, then, having the Gaul to charge for it? Wow, I think they should make it totally free UNTIL they get a good enough for public play Version out. What happens down the road when they have tweaked it so much that to the average computer user it's not runnable? He has invested time and money and for what? A 200gb plus must be downloaded oh and by the way you need the mega sprite 5million video card, oh and the ultra sound card, 12 gb memory, etc etc...? Never release a product until your sure it will be relatively usable by the common man, otherwise your just apple in disguise.

    IMO someone needs to open up a support forum for the old working version and sod the updates.

    End rant.

  4. A noob creates a generic and dumb rocket, uploads it five times, creates another SP account and rates everything with 5 stars. :/

    Ahhh I see, I thought it was based on how many time it was downloaded. And it gets rated by the number of dl, never thought the creator could "vote" thanks for the clarity.

  5. Before I release it you all should know, I didn't make this vehicle, Rocket2guns made the model, a while ago, all I have done is make it flyable, well launchable, I need to test the flight in atmosphere capabilities. Yes you can add a stock dock-o-tron to it, the Buran arm, lights, cargo, etc.

    Current only known issue is the wheels don't "roll" and there are no original DAE files. I think I can make them slide on landing without tearing them off. Unless someone can model a set of wheels that roll.

    @@@@-DISCLAIMER-@@@@

    The original artist for this vehicle is rocket2guns.

    Thepyratecaptain in no way designed nor textured this vehicle.

    All credit for its creation goes to the original author.

  6. Ok, Ill open it. I know the box is slightly damaged but the product is fine, however, it was in a suitcase for the best part of 20 hours.

    As for Playing with it, im 34. I think my Fiance will give me strange looks if I start running round my house with a model shuttle in my hand making rocket noises such as brrrrghhh "ckkkhhhkjkoooooooooowoooooohhhhhh"

    Hey? She lets you play KSP right? Tell her your beta testing a new idea.....

  7. Heres my Shuttle, The Model was rocket2guns CSS Version 2.0, after tinkering with its aerodynamics, Viola!

    No deadly spin, engines gimbal to 10.5, and at about 23000 you dump the SRBS, the flip of death goes away.

    Once in orbit, you dump the fueltank, switch to Orbital Manuvering Systems, and your fine.

    although im not a pilot and havent landed it yet,

    Only mod used is mechjeb 2, weight of vehicle I'm not sure of, yes it can get to orbit, nothing above 300k easily. Landing it? Never have.

    Oh and I forgot, you have to execute a roll over, putting the ext tank on top, it's weight can cause issues, but as you get going, it gets lighter. And you can roll back over.
