Howdi, Watch as I attempt to build a rocket to get to Mun ! http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-zeta-streams Stream is up ! Our Kerbal Space Engineers are having problems getting to Mun and the stability of the rocket design needs work ! We will be landing in a desert region today in an attempt to collect more science as well. Cdr Zeta

Hi, I will be attempting to go to Mun and or Minmus ...wish me luck... http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-zeta-streams Stream is up ! I still dont know what to do about my stream location - I am doing 15 minute records unfortunately and sending them off to Youtube at some point...maybe I can make a compendium of the important points in my Ustream vids then send that off as a video to Youtube but I only have 15 min a piece and even then I think I will only have 10Gigs avail - it is possible I will be changing the Youtube location later because of this...later...! Cdr Zeta

Howdi, In the spirit of Unity, there is a new game out well it is in early demo alpha and made with Unity engine so I am given it a test run - I will be playing KSP after - I am well on my way to Science Gatherin an schtuff.... Thank you KSP for gettin me bak here ... At the moment there is a slight intermission whilst I get a snak and get ready to stream. I still dont know where my perma stream home is gonna be; it may as well be on my own server and I am thinking seriously about it I dunno. I have to run 15 minute records if I want to move them to Youtube still; sorry on that note. I expect to be on KSP for an hour after... http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-zeta-streams Cdr Zeta

Greetings, Cmdr Zeta here, lost in Kerbin Space somewhere but able to have communications now relayed to the Kerbal Science Teams and Space Engineers. With Kerbin Academy well underway, I have decided to issue a restart and resend the main engineering teams back thru the courses to make sure everything is in order. They have completed the new buildings and planning stages of the Science Simulator. Both the Science and Academy SIMULATORS are now ' OFF GRID ' even with backup systems and redundant power capabilities to insure smooth operations; there is still some COMSEC work needing to be done. Today marks a new beginning; we are not totally sure what will transpire, and our formats are not quite yet in place. Activities will begin now and run thru-out the day and night Earth Sunday Dec 22 EST time for several hours. A review of Earth NASA launches will take place as well as Kerbin Space Station (KISS+ Kerbin International Space Station) re-assessment, development, and launch capabilities. This will require a few hours of testing the various new systems redesigned by our space engineers, which may also occur tonite. Certain missions streams on Twitch may have been lost...we will be re-running these missions live ! Our new streaming site is at: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-zeta-streams Now while there may be other ' game streams ' on that site, you may have to sift thru the riff raff to find the KSP vids...such is the way. Wish me and our Kerbal Space Engineers a new beginning. Cmdr Zeta

Hi, I am not sure what this is actually; but thanks for the link; and someone in another thread said Remote Tech worked for them; not RT2; ie... v .23 a prome example of we have to start over again with mods...someone said Mechjeb is down again too...ouch I hope there will be a sticky and one person to collect working mods with links. Cdr Zeta

Hi, Someone in another thread had problems with Kerb Engr Redux... Mod Sticky ... plz cdr zeta

Greetings, Due to possible changes, there is a good possibility that the Live Streams will now be held here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-zeta-streams It is possible that many of my early flights and mission video logs have been destroyed. I have become very upset at the whole mess in Twitch not allowing certain 'production' techniques not being able to be used; they said I was not streaming a game; many 'gamers' who stream on Twitch are not very polite as well and due to the exposure of harsh language and people telling other people what to do on Twitch streams, I am moving to UStream where I can do exaclty what I want to do and stream exactly how I want to stream. Twitch IS NOT ROLEPLAY friendly; and if you roleplay games there you will most likely get banned. I do not care to be in such an atmosphere of biligerant people over there when all they do is talk about everything except the game and blab on skype; therefore I will not be watching any Twitch streams anymore due to this harsh and rash behavior. I will now be able to do productional Roleplay the way I want; as well as stream other events on UStream as well - oh ya and you might find my other streaming channels over there amusing, or interesting; that is just me and it is what I do! Feel free to watch my other channels as well...but for now, I am ready to get back to streaming...Kerbal Space Program... I will setup events over there as well as try to schedule them here. I have not decided which way to go - Sandbox, or Science, due to the MODS availability in Science; I would have to research it; however Roleplay wise; I may go both ways !!! We could use Science as the stages for the Kerbal Space Simulator and Kerbal Academy; where nothing is ' REAL ' and is only simulation; I will exemplify this in the streams; that way I can use Sandbox as the REAL DEAL ! Let's see how the new UStream home works; unfortunately streams there only last less than 30 days; I will have to try and keep streams under 15 minutes as well as Youtube only allow 15 minutes stream saves unless I have a channel over there that was grandfathered; honestly I dont feel like calling them and giving them my phone number; I may get a free cell tho; I may use that I dunno. The happy holidays are around the corner as well so for the next week or so there will be a few dampers put on everything. I am glad to say I am back...I also may try to get " Oribtal Simulator " working; that baby is TOUGH ! So wish me luck here...please...I need all the support I can get these days after what I feel was some harrassment on Twitch; but I am over it; and over Eve Online as well; I never should have gone back there nuff said. In general, look for me streaming every night; but I may not be on the above channel; I have 2 others there you can look them up if anyone's interested; I finally hope to play my guitar and some music now; I just dont know how my streams are gonna work. I could also pay $10 a month to keep them on UStream; this might work but I am lookin at a couple of game subs as well and I only have so much $$ to go around. I also know that most of you all now are pretty verse in KPS; I am not but I am learning and I dont want any spoilers ! If I need any help I am sure I can find it on my own ! I also try to stream such that it is always a learning process for me; so I do tend to talk about how I do things; it doesnt mean any of it is right or is the best way to go; but it is a way for others to see how I learn; I am 50+ as well and feel young enough to learn most anything; this game, or SIMULATOR, does very well for me in that respect, let alone provide creativity that is quite unmatched in any game out there. Wish me luck; give me a couple weeks for regular programming...! (Edit: I do plan on watching KSP streams tho; as long as Skype users and chatters talk about the KSP and not play other MMOS while the streamer is streaming; it is just annoying; if they do that that is fine but I dont have to listen to it; not picking on KSP streamers tho I have heard it going on; just be careful Twitch support isnt too supportive and they will ban instantly and not give anyone a chance to solve a stream video issue) Commander Zeta

Greetings, I apologize for a disturbance in the force ... There have been difficulties with the program...I am attempting to resolve the issues... Please stay tuned on my site at: http://vncvw9.webs.com/spacepgm.html For further info ... The program is in re-engineering stage and is expected to become live soon ... Stay tuned on the Live Stream for updates ...: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/26435-Live-Stream-The-Kerbin-Mission-Kerbin-Academy-and-other-stuff-! Cdr Zeta

Greetings. It seems as to I need to take a break from KSP sad but true...I am not able to reliably stream any MMOs until I get a better cooling system for my new CPU and my ISP upload aint all that or I got other issues I havnt had time to fix yet. I certainly cant stream any MMOs anymore as it is too taxking on my computer. It was fun while it lasted and I will be back streaming KSP someday soon I hope. I had read a thread somewhere in the forum about there being an Eve Corp out of here; maybe on STO as well I forget. Well I am back over to Eve Online and trying to enjoy it again...trying ! Sometimes you have to just pay for that SUB and enjoy life and not being so stressed trying to play a game for free; Eve Online is such a game. I will attempt for the first time try and De-Mystify just exactly what EO is and how new players can alleviate that intial overwhelmness; wish me luck ! http://www.twitch.tv/cdr_zeta Cdr Zeta:cool:

Hello, I added a little video short before and after the new KSP V22 Intro - It was a live video feed on the fly. It has a few hiccups but turned out okay ! http://www.twitch.tv/cdr_zeta/b/470848109 I didnt see a video slot so I placed it in animation. Enjoy (!) and Be sure to be on the look out for my streams ! I hope to stream V22 soon; havnt started playing yet, but as soon as I do it goes live ! Cdr Zeta

Hello, Here's my 2-bits... Science is the in thing right - I mean ya V22 ok so now we have players finding the fastest way to eat up a skill tree and basically not make it a 'fun' game but a 'challenge' game to see who can build the biggest; who can get to ooloo first on -1 parts; I agree these avenues for gaming are nice; for those who play that way; you wonder why you call this a singularity thing with MODS; you go back to Vanilla for the 'challenges'... I dont think it is about challenge as much as it is about fun; there are many aspects of fun in gaming; this game in particular seems to have many aspects as described above, but in my opinion, when one adds using time warp to speed things up; well to me the fun is lost; it is like flying over a hurricane instead of riding the waves; which I wouldnt think would be too boring. I am a slooooow cat; slow player; seems to like to start over alot; luvs to stream and blow up computers in the process; has to play guitar an jam or goes crazy...I have developed a style that is slow but not so slow as to be too far behind altho it probly seem like it. Main thing is I roleplay my Kerbals and much more; ARGs etc check that out in my Fansites pages. But the MODS oh the MODS...here is how I deal with them...(!) With the new mission/science update, I simply play the skill tree as if I were actually campaigning; I used the sandbox to learn the game; mechanics; etc...limitations... It took me a good 3 months of casual sandbox play and some tutorials; not so much as to spoil the game but ya I needed some help in certain areas; I think I can convey that now in my streams without spoiling it for anyone. SO...I simply add the mods as how I see is appropriate for my Kerbals in the skill trees; I havnt actually created a tree I sort of add it in my head. But I have no idea now how they intend to add MODS in the Campaign Mode; this NEEDS to be made available for us; I actually didnt even think of this til now. Maybe at least have them available after the whole skill tree is done to which from what I have seen can be done in a few missions; I would have expected alot more on this front; I dunno why it is people have to find the fastest way to get from point A to point B; does get a few bugs out and brings up the prices for Science tho. Just study the MODS like you would anything in a skill tree; if you are in sandbox mode I cant really help you cause I am now mostly a mission man myself now haha ! In sandbox anything goes and if have a singularity boredom problem; learn missioning; create skill trees; explore carefully and most important find a way to have fun with it. Cdr Zeta

Hello, Well I got the courage to swap out the stock coolers and it turns out the original stock cooler works better - by almost 10deg C !? Ya tell me - what I thought was gonna work better cause it is bigger with more fins; did worse. Part of the reason also is the fan on the larger cooler ran only half as fast around 2280rpm compared to 4500+ on the one that came with the 6core; I will run up a stream on showing you my results and the differences in the coolers. Streaming it was running at 45dec C on the bigger cooler; around 38deg C on the newer one. I may have a tip on stock coolers you wont wanna miss; but only on my stream; harr harr ! I will be putting the new one back tomorrow as well as replacing it with the new silver thermal paste; I will also be testing out 6 cores after it settles in hopefully it goes back... I been catching KSPTV streams; have you?! Harr...KSC to Cdr Zeta - we need you back here ! Cdr Zeta has been found and is enroute to KSC relaying command data to KSC along the way. It seems as tho...wait...we expect streams on this new info soon... Cdr Zeta

Hello, I dont really have any other place to put this it might as well be here... I am sort of waiting on v22 and associated mods for it... I had problems running v21 then my computer quad core no less crashed took out CPU motherboard AND power supply...cant remember if I was streaming KSP or Starmade (a take off from Minecraft)...both seemingly memory intensive programs to some extent, however runnning these programs as well as streaming them was the needle that broke my haystack... So yeah, streaming is VERY CPU intensive, memory intensive, etc... With this in mind I am running my 6Core finally but only with stock coolers; I have yet to try a slightly larger one, and my SSD is not accepting Windows 7 OS - it seems to be freezing on dotnet 4(4.5) and my harddive running Win7 which I am on now seems to be running just fine; some kind of memory glitch I havnt a clue yet; I am running IDE mode on the SSD so I dunno if switching to AHCI as it is called (or such) which makes it faster will help; I dont believe this but I could be wrong. I am thinking in order to stream effectively and keep the temps and cpu useage down, I need a better coolong system (for a 100 bukks you can get into liquid cooling; just cant get there yet)... I want to get dual SLI cards for DX11 and need a 1000W power supply; I cant risk losing what I got so streaming is on a delicate stance. I have not tried KSP yet I am still working bugs on my drives and Win7; getting there though ! My Hotpoint dryer of less than a frikin year crapped out and a few other problems I got to attend to at home; all in a days work ya like weeks for me haha !!! I am really hopeful for v22 and man the MODS and the updates and 3rd party programs - this community is awesome; the game is awesome cause it's quiet; I miss it. I may drop back to v18/20 and run some comparisons on my new computer; I have v21 but I am skipping it for now; there are 'other' games out there I need to attend to haha... I do however stream on occasion; probly not tonite; but I stream things such as me on guitar jamming to other music and even my own creations which I hope to do in the near future; I stream some electronics and computer programming stuff later on; be sure to add me you never know what you may find me doing; I do miss KSP. I was just really hoping my SSD would really kick butt for me and so far; ZILCH I am not too happy with it; XP kicks butt on it on my dual core though ya it would wouldnt it haha ! I am happy to see other KSP streamers; it is fun to watch others and do other things so you dont get too bogged down on 'one' thing; variety is a spice of life and it neat that KSP has variety in and of itself ! Good Luck Streamers and wish me luck too ! I Shall Return I Hope ! Cmdr Zeta, lost in space as usual haha !! PS: Check the lone renegade planet they discovered in the infrared !

Simply Amazing ! This is awesome even though I dunno half of what it does. I got to try this. I am wondering about using similar physical parts with different modes;uses. I think you talked about adding this capability a few posts up above. It is easy for me to work on parts seperately in the folders; but copying and resaving parts, moving old parts; I hope this helps in this way; cant wait to check it out and thank you for the program !! Zeta

Hello, My new computer is working finally. I am in the process of installing drivers an such; quite a pain...it will be a few days more but I am finally online letting it settle in. cdr zeta

If I am not mistaken it is the same for every game start. cdr zeta

Hello. Tonite is the second in a short series of setting up my new 6 core computer (to stream KSP of course) (and other mmos yadayada haha). Tonite is basic BIOS setup screens and infos; I wont be flashing it; my heatsink fan is minimul it seems and I may try my other one for benchmarking the cpu temps. http://www.twitch.tv/cdr_zeta If you can t hop on over to see it live please check the videos; they will be informative and somewhat entertaining ! Cdr Zeta

Update ! I have been checking out other single and multiplayer games and MMOs aout there - me bein a space nut I am kinda leanin if you know what I mean. I wont mention any games here except to say this: KSP Knocks The Socks Off For The Game That It Is ! KSP is the only game with kool graphics where you can build things then fly them; the only problem is the memory and CPU useage; the Unity engine may be a CPU hog I dunno; all I know is when I stream Starmade my CPU, Motherboard, AND 550 watt Supply Blew; Starmade is the same way but more so I think; I was streaming also and I found that live streaming hikes up the CPU to 100% or even more and pops up the CPU temp 10Deg C; just for streaming ! Needless to say I am more conscientious about CPU temps now; especially with the new 6 Core I am building up tonite; I probly wont be using it but I want to get it setup and ready to break in; I am running a little test as well before I build up the computer; c'mon over and check it out! http://www.twitch.tv/cdr_zeta I will using new CPU temp monitoring programs now; I will let you all know how I am doing on the stream setting up for your benefits (!): Building a 6 Core CPU Computer (AMD no less but hey it was still expensive; I still need a water cooler and 2 SLI DX11+ graphics cards; all told I am looking at $800: 6 Core FX AMD M5A99 Pro or somethin lol I forget 1866 DDR3 - 2 ea 16G total - not approved but almost; the approved ones were a set of 4x4; I want to OC the memory if that is possible later on and to do that I need a set of 2; I was told a set of 4 cannot be overclocked if there is such a thing; no matter 1866 will be plenty for me; I am running 200ddr2 no lol and that does me pretty good; barely for streaming but the cpu is running hot Wish me luck ! (PS: I didnt know KSPTV now has streamers up; way kool; so I dont expect too many visitors live but I will be saving my videos you can check them out later! Thanks!) Cdr Zeta

Due to my unwillingness to wait (haha - ugh !) I am starting the ARG now... I just found out that the 'liveliness' of the mission aint gonna be so lively HAHA ! Oh well I am a gonna do it anyways ! First one on Twitch with the winning anser before I launch (!) gets to have their little module added to our space station to commerate yer efforts to the cause !! Cdr Zeta - Still lost in space BTW !

Well I wasnt planning on it and the actual stream may not take place depending on my computer load. This will be an ARG event ! The winner must name the event in order to have a copy of their module connected to our space station ! The answer must be given after 20 minutes exactly on a countdown to launch at approx 2327 EST tonite - ya - like 2 hours from now ! Operations to begin 1 hour prior to launch (of the ARG not necessarily the news, or some other stuff) ... Clues...hmmm One clue already given...wait, 2 clues already given... Clue 3: Standing tall with fire in hand, She looks afar not over land, One of proper attire is she, And this would be, my _____________________________________________________________? Harr ! Cdr Zeta

Howdi KSP Fans ! No I havnt forgot about you since my KSP Stream killed my CPU and motherboard ...naw .. we just waitin to get a faster computer As such we have to stream less intensive games.... Hop on over if yer bored I am checkin out a MMO ... http://www.twitch.tv/cdr_zeta PS WIll someone please PM me how to edit my SIG LOL - Thanks ! Zeta Dude

Hello, As you may or may not know I have had some computer problems; I am waiting on some memory for my 6core computer; thus I cant really stream KSP or many fast and memory intensive MMO games; streaming really uses alot of CPU and that in turn heats up the CPU perety good. If it wasnt for KSP I wouldnt have even thought about streaming ! KSP Rocks and I cant wait to get back online and stream this awesome game. As it turns out, I seem to have applied for MARS ONE - yeah - I am going to Mars !!?? So I am kinda lookin for support; I dont know how far I will get in the application process but I hope to at least get my application video up so you all can vote for me ! As for tonite my KSP space engineers are on strike; and I am kinda on KSP-burnout; so I am streaming other games that I can stream okay (Starmade isnt one of them as that game 'really' eats up memory; it will be a kind of benchmark program for my streaming probly !) I think I was streaming KSP when my QuadCore computer died; yeah I think the CPU overheated streaming KSP; this time I got some CPU monitoring programs; my Dualcore here is running 50deg C which is hot in my opinion at 98-100% useage streaming. I am gonna try to setup my guitar and stream some music so if yer bored and wanna take a break from 'games' hop on over to the Zeta Cave stream ! Thanks ! Cdr Zeta

Hello, Commander Zeta here with a feed recorded earlier at PAX ! I found the video short and am gonna livestream it - its about an hour ! Hope to see you there ! My stream site is at: http://www.twitch.tv/cdr_zeta I will be starting the video in about 5 minutes ! PAX Stream is live at : http://www.twitch.tv/twitch/b/454897273 and the KSP video is buried inside at aboout 5:20 Cdr Zeta

Howdi, I will be streaming my Zeta Cave, working on building up some cmputers if I am lucky enough, testing out power supplies, and trying to setup a thermal test procedure for cpu's cause I got a new one coming in and I want to check this area of thermodynamincs out; I happen to know where my college book is too haha! You can read a better synopsis here: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/46653-Cdr-Zeta-s-Alien-and-Electronic-Pusuits-Thread-! I will post my stream info up there in more detail. http://www.twitch.tv/cdr_zeta Wish me luck ... Cdr Zeta

EDIT: GADS someone fix my typo in the title lol ! Howdi, Cdr Zeta here with an update on my pursuit of happiness...(No this isnt all about Spaceflight but in a sense, it is; you just have to open your mind a tad !) I aint the greatest at one thing but I am perty good at alot of things - ya ya sleep and laziness are in there too but I got a surprise for you all... Ever since I started this game a few months ago I have a rekindled interest in my hobby - Electronics. Well I need a new motherboard I think so I ordered an upgrade but I want to learn about heat transfer and overclocking. Since this is almost up my ally, I decided to setup a LIVESTREAM (See my LIVESTREAM thread in Fanworks !) and show you all my cave harr... I study advanced and cutting edge low level audio electronics for one reason - to conatact an IET - an Intelligent ET (haha! but no really...)...SETI looks into outer space...well I have discovered a few things of my own over the last 20 years, and now I am gonna share it with you all. I will be notifying other people as well like non-KSP'ers, and please be nice on the stream haha you may think things look abit crazy well I did alot of work to get where I am (especially in this cave !), and now I am ready to get to work again. I have been contacted by one or more IET's in various ways which I will not go into; one of them is simply thought transferrance; I have at times been deluged with abstract ideas to build a communications device (or two...) of sorts... Some of the tests failed; some succeeded; but nothing tangible yet. That is all about to change, and I am gonna be livestreaming this whole affair from the getgo so the world can see that this is no hoax; I am the real deal and to be honest I have the crap scared out of me a few times enough to stop my projects altogether for years; but each time I press on a little further. I aint gettin any younger and this work needs to be done and published. For a backdrop just study von Daniken etc...then you have what are called the astral realms and other dimensions of 'possible' existance; it is in these areas that I have a keen interest in. Yes while outer space is there, so is inner space. I study the borderline between dimensions; lookup chaos and complexity theory. I believe it is in this borderline area where the interdimensional communications device is supposed to work; or something to that affect; there are ways of getting there, but alot of preliminary research needs to be done; this is where I come in. May I introduce you to my website: http://www.freewebs.com/mrzeta/ and if you are really interested go ahead and look up mrzeta haha !!! I plan on building laser setups, a homebrew microwave dish, and have a 10 inch SCT for you viewing pleasure soon ! But I need to work on computers etc first so head on over to my livestream...you wont wanna miss it !! http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/26435-Live-Stream-The-Kerbin-Mission-Kerbin-Academy-and-other-stuff-!
