DOWNLOAD (NEW HOST!) (SPACEDOCK) ***** Kerbal Mission Patch Template v2.3 ***** This is a series of SVG images that let you make your own KSP patches - simple as that! *** WHY SHOULD I USE THIS? *** 'Cause mission patches are awesome! I make a new one for each mission I do, which helps make every launch feel unique and special. There are other mission patch projects out there, but I couldn't find a good one that was free (as in speech) and used the style of vector art that I liked. I'm hoping that other intrepid Kerbonauts will use these and find them helpful. The open licensing should allow everyone to benefit, and hopefully contribute back all their sweet drawings *** OK, SO HOW DO I USE THIS? *** The included SVG files are designed for use with Inkscape, an open source SVG editor. You can download it here for all platforms KSP runs on: https://inkscape.org/download/ Inkscape is not trivial software and requires some work to get familiar with it. Once you get good, you can do some really cool stuff. Some tutorials will help you get you started: https://inkscape.org/en/learn/tutorials/ On Windows, SVG files are opened in Internet Explorer by default. You may need to mess with your defaults, or right-click and choose Inkscape manually. *** MAN, INKSCAPE IS COMPLICATED! *** It really is You can ask questions in the forums, but I won't be providing any learning support for this (see the disclaimer). Sorry. There are probably other programs you can use that might be easier. I don't know anything about those though. *** WHAT'S INCLUDED *** 1.) Examples.svg -- Some pre-made patches to give you ideas. I made these quickly, you can too! 2.) Icons.svg -- This is full of all the planets, ship icons, patch outlines, and more. Copy and paste these into Flag Template.svg (where you assemble the patches). 3.) Flag Template.svg -- This is where you assemble your patches. Make a copy before you save over it. 4.) Aircraft Name & Number.svg -- This is a simple but handy template to put names on your planes/whatver. I think it looks best on the Mk3 cockpits, but it's nice anywhere. 5.) Plaque Template -- A simple template that lets you make Pioneer Space Probe-esque plaques. See the individual files for hints. *** DISCLAIMERS *** This is provided AS IS, WITH NO WARRANTY OR SUPPORT. That said, please enjoy *** LICENSE *** Kerbal Mission Patch Template is licensed CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ *** SPECIAL THANKS *** Thanks to the developers of the Outer Planets mod v1.8: CaptRobau, Eudae55, as well as all the other contributors to that project. OuterPlanets is an EXCELLENT addition to the game that provides some exciting challenges and strikes a great balance between fun and serious that I like in KSP. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK!

UPDATE!! I now host on the new SPACEDOCK! There comes a time when I convince myself that its time to start doing some modding. Well here is my treat to you all! Introducing mission patches!!! Plop these suckers on the side of your fairings or fuel tanks to show that you really care about your missions. These patches are based on a true story. The story of real space-flight missions, past and near-present. Now this is a work in progress. Let me know if you like them and if you ask nicely, I can add some of your recommendations of missions as long as they were done in real life or will be done in the future. Lets take a look at what it s the pack. You will get 30 patches as seen below.... Note that this pack is a fork of Krasimir's Nebula decals. I have taken the liberty to expand on his work as he is no longer with the community. If you have the Nebula pack installed by him then you will need to remove that before installing my release. I have included his decal set which based on organizations and branding. This way you will have access to the legacy decals he made, and also mine. Hey umm maybe more pics?! Delta II with Curiosity (okay I know it was launched on an Atlas V , put those pitchforks and fires away) Delta II with New Horizons payload. Requirements : Firespitter by snjo https://github.com/snjo/Firespitter/releases TweakScale by Pellinor http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/80234 DOWNLOAD SPACEDOCK LINK http://spacedock.info/mod/324/Mission%20Patches%20-%20Volume%201 GITHUB LINK https://github.com/lextacy-2008/Mission-Patches-Vol1 Installation : 1. Extract 2. Make sure NEBULA is the folder that is under the gamedata folder. Example.... KSP(whereEverONyourHARDdrive)/GameData/NEBULA 3. In the VAB you will see blank white squares with red text on them. This is your part. Install part and then right-click and then click "previous texture" or "next texture" to change the mission patches NOTES: -The mission patches are supported using the 1X1 square curved&flat decal plate. The 1X2 and smaller does not support these due to constraints. -This is a WIP. This probably is not perfect. This is my first ever mod for KSP :/ Thanks and Hugs: Thanks to Firespitter for his texture changing framework Thanks to Pellinor for his tweakscale Thanks to Krasimir for the Nebula Decals mod.
