I've been playing lately with RSS and I can give you a few tips. If you don't have Active Texture Management Installed, definitely try it out. Another thing I could suggest is the AutoPruner plugin, which gets rid of fuel tanks and fairings in other mods so you only see Procedural parts. Lastly, and the least known I think, is to use DDSLoader and the program DDS4KSP. This set of programs: Converts pngs, tgas and mbms into .dds files, Allows KSP to load .dds files much faster than other file types, and vastly decreases the memory usage of these files. One caveat to using DDS4KSP that I've found: After converting your \GameData folder to dds, open the folder GameData\Squad\Contracts\ in DDS4KSP and use the "restore backups" option. If you don't, the icons for contracts in-game will be a bit buggy. Using all of these techniques, I'm able to run RSS extremely easily. Just remember to read the documentation for all the mods and you should be set! PS Bevo I love your vids! You should really make a tutorial for RSS, I had no idea what I was doing until I watched your career mode.

Try burning "up" (away from Kerbin). To visualize this, pull out the blue pull-thing (what are these things called) in the maneuver node editor facing away from Kerbin. I'll edit in a screenshot in a second. Added. This button thingamajig: See if that fixes your problem.

12 parts! Impressive, I always have problems optimizing my crafts parts-wise... Will be using Nice work!

Well, I don't mean to be tooting my own horn or anything, but I spent a lot of time cooking up the presentation for my KiG plane series: ... But you guys decide for yourselves I've been inactive on the forums for a while, but I might start posting ships again... Depends on how lazy I am this summer

Man, it's been a while since I posted on the forums... Anyways, attempted to install Final Frontier in my KSP Renaissance Compilation, and I ran into a slight (read: pretty big) problem. It seems that KSP isn't loading FF at all. I've made sure I put the files in the right place...

Just thought you should know. Any help would be much appreciated (Really want to give my kernels some recognition!)

Ha alright, just checking And really, this is a nice-looking plane. Really true to the F-4.

Also... Is that a KiG you're firing on?

KiG-23 added! Also, new signature! And 2000 views! Woohoo! Exclamation points!

Looks great, Odo! Nice job

Still very much a work in progress, but here's a sample of the KiG-23 (folding wings not included) Coming soon.

Check the bottom of the OP

Impressive start a thread!

Oxidizer makes the tanks weight MUCH more.

... Is there a specific reason it has rocket fuel tanks? Look really good otherwise

Well, I have a Yak-38 replica here, and a Tu-160 replica here. Other than that, maybe also probably gonna release some of my spacecraft as well. Nice! We should try flying in formation in KMP

Lots of changes to the thread, guys! Check it out, and have fun with the boatload of new crafts!

Nice also vaguely resembles the MiG-25. Russian planes tend to look pretty similar

Well, not an F-22, but definitely an F-35 (mini) replica: The KSR K-35A. All comments/criticism welcome.

Those are Communotron 88-88s. Stock.

Also, new plane coming soon (!) The KiG-35. Based off the prototype MiG-35.

Well, it obviously won't have folding wings but I'll see what I can do

Thanks! It was really interesting making this, seeing how the MiG series has evolved through the years

Interesting concept! For my planes, I just slap some RCS on for easy reverse movement, but this is a more realistic - and interesting - option! Kudos!

KiG-25 added! I've also redirected the advertising of the thread to be more of a replica craft thread than my whole 'KiG' story Have fun with the crafts!

Nice replica! These are some authentic-looking modules. Are you going to add on or keep it with just Zarya, Unity, and Zvezda? Also, what's the part count like? If you want it, I've got a smaller mini-style Soyuz somewhere... I'll see if I can find it
