  1. But before I neeeded to tweak the thrust while now it seemed more balanced when flying on kerbin. Just right
  2. So the ducted fan engines were detached from my vessel when I loaded it in the VAB. Reattached the new micro engines and the killing machine still flies nicely However I am noticing they seem to be more power hungry. However my design needed no change but the engines themselves.... And a picture of the successful night landing at the nearest karbonite hotspot from the KSC. This without needing the parachute, which is almost a huge achievement for me heh heh
  3. oops you scare me now Im going to try and I'll let you know ASAP. Did I say some people just can not keep up with your productivity
  4. Yay! it did take me quite a while to find out as my packrat was hiding behing my 2 construction rovers heh heh. And I also had not a clue which of the new TACLS, karbonite (and +), mks or this pack was causing it :/ On another note I am having a BLAST with these tiny parts . I LOVE IT! Rovers or vtol machines are so cute and just the right size for my space program. Anyway here is some pics of my VTOL. runs on karbonite electric generator and holds 80 karbonite. Can also mine the stuff thanks to 2 side drills. Probably overpowered for Duna but you do need 2 of those small karbonite generators for kerbin
  5. Again I love your work Roverdude I did have a small issue which resulted in a base that would cause enormous (near 0 fps and lots of null refs) lag because of a packrat rover from an earlier release (prior to this pack). Issue was solved by deleting the rover. Maybe this deserve a warning on the OP and will maybe save hours of debugging to others who cannot keep up with your productivity
  6. Not all have been manned missions but I have been everywhere but Moho. Don't know why I am never been bothered to send anything there. And I haven't sent anything to Eve since the .21 days. Generally play around the Duna, Jool and Kerbin systems. And Eeloo and Dres have been visited only onced I think in 0.22 or 0.21, both were successful apollo type missions... I play sandbox only though.
  7. That will be very useful! Thxs in advance Less switching between KSP and the browser is always good.
  8. Do not be sorry I am Glad I get the chance to test your work. Thanks for your mod and great news about the hotfix! I will try it tomorrow.
  9. No matter what I do (restarting KSP and reloading the vessel at the tracking station) it keeps happening. It was working fine during testing at KSC launchsite... I am using a bunch of other mods so that could be the problem.
  10. Sounds like a very promising mod Unfortunately my first try at implementing a hangar failed. Im using 1.1.0 so not sure if this bug has been fixed as i see 1.1.1 was released. Anyway I launched a rover lander to the Mun but when i try to launch the rover inside it launches it on kerbin at the height where the lander is located on the Mun.
  11. Oh dear, thanks for the memories. Played this quite a bit on my atari ST
  12. I wish I still had my ps3:) Anyway I will only list some of the sony exclusives as most other games you can get on xbox or pc... 'Heavy rain' fun and original but I cant remember the classification 'Uncharted' 2 and 3 are AMAZING. think Indiana jones 'everybody's golf' If you like golf games, this is sooooo much fun! I never got bored of playing this with friends... Id get a ps3 back just for this ahah. they made a new version recently. 'Little big planet 2' already mentioned by previous poster however this is a must have game. Not an exclusive but " John Crichton" recommended you Mass Effect 3. This is one of my favourite game series of all time, but I would definitely start by the begining and play ME1 then ME2 before 3 ANd ME1 has recently been released for ps3 as part of a trilogy set. ME has such a powerful emotional story it will make you cry and make you happy in such a way games rarely do....
  13. I was asking myself the same question a few days ago although I knew I was always gonna buy it someday but I didnt know whether it was worth the $69 they still ask for it in Australia. Anyway I did it and do not regret it one second. It is mile ahead of gta4 and the story is so well acted it is a joy to watch and play it. It almost feels like a tarantino movie. There is no doubt it is my favourite gta game now, worth every peny.
  14. Hey thanks But yeah Ive figured that out a long long time ago replayed many great stuff like all indiana jones, MI and Days of the tentacles When I said I missed SCUM engine I meant as a 10 yo playing those games for the first time and be blown away. To me it was like open-world perfection back then. Imagine what I feel when I play gta5 now at 34 yo heh heh... EDIT: and I might continue citing some epic games that I loved, this time on megadrive (genesis). Those are "Another world" (aka out of this world for US folks)and the mighty "Landstalker"
  15. Oh well my choice is way older than 6 years old. Probably because Im in my mid thirties and concider 6yo games pretty much current gen and not 'old games' Anyway my favourite old game is... THE SECRET OF MONKEY ISLAND. This game made me a gamer My dad bought an atari 1040st back in 1989, monkey island wasnt my first game however it was the first I liked and finished. Unfortunately MI2 wasnt released for the atari and I had to wait until 1995 to play the sequel on our first PC. I miss good ole Lucas arts SCUM engine
  16. When constellation was announced I had a gut feeling, it wouldn't last long.
  17. Well first Im a long time brewer and beer lover so Im not your average VB drinking aussie dude ahah. I hate bad beer from anywhere There are heaps of micro breweries in Oz and lots of good beer made here if you look around. And the first american pale ale I have drunk is brewed in Perth, Western Australia (one of the better beer in this country), that is how I first found out about APA . To tell you the truth many people in australia know of 'little creatures pale ale' but few know the style is actually an APA... hard to explain to people that beer style=/= country of origin heh heh Homebrewing is very popular here btw. Although most people just use kits. And we also have a local forum just look for 'aussie home brewer'. And last we have our own local hop variety (pride of ringwood) and malts which arent too bad. And yeah any researched homebrewer would have heard of an APA I suppose! And most people who do All grain or partial mash have a copy of "how to brew" in their cupboard so we know the main american styles for sure!
  18. hey there:) I am a homebrewer too, been brewing 'partial mash' style for 10 years. Sold my gear (keg system/mash tun) a year ago when I moved from sydney to north queensland though. Dying to get back into it very soon as my favourite beers are so expensive nowadays. And my favourite recipe is a very hoppy american pale ale
  19. Agree on that. What I do find funny is the persistence of this belief of cheap "made in china" stuff while truly they have really come up with technologies and financial success for years and we should be more scared than anything (economically I mean). Anyway congrats to China and chinese people for Change 3 made space news really good lately! And even with the apparent problems with the rover, this is an awesome success for a first try at something really hard (soft landing). I hope they continue to go further and faster
  20. Definitely a personal opinion! I love the new look As someone else said you could always replace or add the old part if you miss it.
  21. Love the track, still havent seen the movie though. But I have seen the first movie when I was a kid back in the 80s, loved it
  22. I wouldn't call BSOD increasing performance
  23. Completely agree on that. It is being optimistic to believe we would send humans to interstellar destinations whether in 200years or a 1000 years. It is being optimistic to believe that the poverty problem and overpopulation of the human race will ever get better. As much as I love space exploration I would consider such a decision a waste of money and I am absolutely against bar a prosperous and sustainable humanity (which it is not). Even sending human to mars right now causes some dilemmas although I believe that will happen in our lifetime and has some merits. Even if you can do something, doesn't mean you should. It kind of reminds me of, although not related to space, of Romario (the ex brazil striker) who recently turned to politics. The guy is campaigning against his country hosting the world cup next year. His reasons being that it doesnt help the social problems Brazil faces right now and in fact worsen every prospect of the country being a first world country in the near future. Just because Brazil and brazilians love footbal, it wasn't the best decision to give the world cup to a country that dearly needed money to be spent elsewhere.
  24. It doesnt transmit as fast And it doesn't look as good as a fully deployed 88-88
