The fxOffset is off alittle still testing.

[Kartoffelkuchen]

It clips, but not everytime, different camera virw angles make the difference. To fix that you just have to move the thrustTransform and snokePoint a bit away from the engine in Unity.

[Mecripp]

Think one problem is theres like 3 fxOffset on the booster why ?

EDIT- Lol looks like your offsetting your offset's

EDIT- A5CSEngine fxOffset = 0, 0, 2 looks ok and

Forgot what offset, I changed but the flames are still alittle high.

I copied the config from Frizzank's Titan III 5 segment SRB, so pretty much all of the offset and FX definitions are straight from FASA. I'm getting ready to try balancing the parts and I'll experiment with the offsets. I've added your change to the offset to the configs, but it isn't part of the available download yet.

[TheShadow1138]

I've fixed the SRB particle offset problem and done a balance pass. You can place a 3.2 metric ton payload to Kerbosynch orbit with some fuel left over. I've sent Augustus the updated configs, so the next update he posts will have these fixes. Now, on to the Ariane 6 (Juno 6).

[TheShadow1138]

Here are some screenshots of the Ariane 6 (in the 62 configuration) in-game. The normal map is a little rough here, but it should be fixed for the release.

what's the payload? please say that you made that and it's an iss module.

It is indeed an ISS style module that I made. It and its companions are certainly not the best looking station modules, especially on the inside, but they don't cause any lag on my computer when they're all assembled, and that's what I wanted from them.

When I release the next update can we include your station modules? With some adaptation we could turn them into ESA analogous modules.

I'll think about it. I never really intended to release them, but we'll see.

[taniel0401]

Is it a a custom faring or one from the procedural farings pack?

[_Augustus_]

Is it a a custom faring or one from the procedural farings pack?

Custom, though I will try to add Procedural Fairings support so you can have more payload options.

[_Augustus_]

HELLO, BOYS! I'M BAAAAAAAAAAACK!

0.2 is out! Got some description issues and the V fairing base is missing because it's cfg was corrupt, but those should be fixed soon!

So for the 0.3 update, I've decided to use this for the Apollo CM:

Javascript is disabled. View full album

You may recognize it, it's the KP110! I noticed that the KP110 had been abandoned and that Eudae55 had made better textures, so I've decided to adopt it from the homeless-mod shelter. The IVA needs to be redone, so for now it'll be a placeholder.

EDIT: What does everyone think? If you all hate that I took someone else's parts just once then I'll remove it, I guess.

The album is a little wonky. Try removing the #0 from your imgur album, like this:

This time I've done it for a reason though, the mod was actually abandoned.

Also, Eudae made that album, I haven't made my own yet.

And I fixed the album

The two of us can't texture that well, and a pixelated command pod is the last thing we want pixelated. I love the design, and it was actually abandoned and released to the public domain. I'm obeying all licensing (It's public domain, I can do what I want), and this is the one time I'll do this.

The KP110 was released under public domain.

I haven't even added it, Shadow is just starting working on making the Saturn parts.

[Master Tao]

I know that Ledenko released the original K-P0110 as public domain.

What about Eudae55's retexture?

What about Eudae55's retexture?

Considering that he used the originals as a base, I'd say it was public domain as well. Eudae also likes to release his art under public domain.

[Master Tao]

Derivatives of public domain works do not have to be released under public domain, and Eudae55 can feel free to change the license s/he typically provides.

On the forums, the rule is that without a provided license, we assume all rights reserved.

I'm not actually releasing the pod any time soon, I'll pm Eudae.

Just to give a perspective for 0.3's Sarnus VIII, I made a test article with ProceduralParts and TweakScale. Here's what the monster rocket looks like in-game:

The bottom of that thing is 10m.
