    Hot dang!
  2. Beetlecat
    :D! : This looks great, thank you for sharing your work.
  3. Beetlecat
    Fantastic!! can't wait to see how this looks

    Your dedication to the collection is astounding, and makes continued use of your whole library/hangar of craft really, really worthwhile. I know I sound a bit like a broken record, but it's really appreciated, and not the least bit awe-inspiring. That's more than a few craft to load/tweak/save/upload, load/tweak/save/upload...

    Any info about the Info Pane? Whatsitdo?
  6. Beetlecat
    sure.
  7. Beetlecat
    (and by "like" I mean --- grudgingly understand, and appreciate your efforts / frustration)
  8. Beetlecat
    Nope. Only active vessel.

    Fantastic idea and presentation. Looking forward to watching this develop/deploy

    I didn't even need to check who the author was -- Immediate subscribe. A shame squad didn't expose a keybind for the AGL/ASL toggle. Any chance of adding that? as a manual override?

    It's just alternate textures for specific parts. I'd check out Textures Unlimited for something more broad-sweeping.

    Apologies -- I haven't been able to fire up KSP in a number of days. The only part I was able to confirm had issues was the above-mentioned part located in /Aero/tailBoom that wants to attach facing the wrong way. The dual attachment points are indeed just to allow the different lengths of variants.

    Will try this! TY

    Cool -- I'll have a more time tomorrow evening, and make a better point of IDing parts and quirks/errors. The part I was having the most fun/trouble with was the "Structural Boom" (in Aero/tailBoom). Turns out it has two attachment points due to two part size variants (via firespitter?). It still doesn't like being attached in a rear-facing manner, preferring instead to be clipped entirely through a craft instead. Maybe the attachment point is inverted. I'd love to learn more about this stuff. Is that controlled in the cfg, or in the mu itself?

    Okay, gave it a bit of time tinkering with the RF parts. Fiddling with this mod is like hanging out with a dear old friend. I love the form-factor / cross sections and really over-the-top chunky/low-tech awesomeness. It's not quite Kerbal aesthetic overall, but still really fun. The part textures are starting to show their age / sure, they could use some refinement at the joins here and there. I haven't yet plugged in the alternate textures. I didn't attempt to attach/build everything, but some parts like the booms (long, skinny ones) and the wing adapter pods seemed to be oriented the wrong way when placing into the scene. The booms also have something weird going on with the attachment points. I wound up attaching them "backward" clipped into the adapter, then manually tweaked them around. Some of the prop engines had some amazing temperature/heat effects. I didn't encounter them with my little test flight, but assume some of these might still happen? The textures on the Retro-Future pwings were ridiculously fun/cool. I can't remember if there was an emissive/light-up texture, but it was something along those lines. Anything still in that pwings.zip file to play with?

    Oh, nice. I've been meaning to loop back to this part pack soon -- thank you for putting together a beta -- and no, this isn't the feedback

    Terminal velocity- achieved.

    Especially if they actually mapped to the city lights / terrain overlays from something like Stock Visual Enhancements. When flying overhead, and thinking I want to check out a town I see, I just pretend that by the time the pilot lands, they missed the town/city limits and wound up parking far away in a field.

    I would adore this also. The ability to create/save some "presets" would be great at the very least to use as starting points, to then tweak onto particular craft. I suppose we could create a craft that would serve as a framework/structure form and save it as a subassembly or outright craft and just load/merge it in to pick from the available pre-made wings. Like a long girder framework with a bunch of wings/airfoils stuck along it.

    Check the SVE thread. You'll be pleasantly surprised.
  21. Beetlecat
    All of the Thanks! Cheers, @Galileo!

    A quick FYI for anyone trying these TU configs, it may wind up blocking visibility out of the cockpit / IVA mode. Ooops. Looks really gorgeous on the outside, though. @blackrack -- this scatterer release looks absolutely gorgeous. The prodigious amount of haze reminds me a lot of the skies in the late summer when the forest fires are going strong, but it makes for some beautiful screenshots.

    #1, for sure. Being able to create / maintain a list of standard craft for "order from the KCT panel" convenience would be great. A QOL bit at least--- and save a lot of time for anyone that suffers huge time sinks when going into the VAB/SPH like Raccoon mentioned. I should really test this/experiment before asking, but I'm hours away from getting home -- How does KCT handle multiple launch sites at the KSC? I'm playing with the awesome KSC Extended, and the half-dozen launch pads at the KSC are targetable with the launch site picker. Does roll-out and reconditioning target individual launch pads, or is it that literal?
  24. Beetlecat
    I think that's a stock craft, and the twin booms are just liquid fuel tanks, so each of them got the same "damage" landing the water -- but not enough to break the plane. Touch-down was was fairly gentle, but obviously rough enough to trigger a KKS damage/leak state.

    Oh it's so beautiful! How I wish those trees were collide-able (Maybe a terrain scatter SVT hack?)
