Ariane 5 and other Projects under development

[tadeass]

I think not much, 1742 polygons.

[Dani-Sang]

I\'ve got a feeling I\'m using to little amount of polygons hehe.

[tadeass]

I think on your sattelite it doesn\'t care, It\'s quite small object and only a payload with not much parts, also, it makes your sat more nice, I like your job. Try to start with adding less verticles on the cylinders.

Maybe it would be one of first payloads what I will want on my orbit.

Can I have an order for you please? I modelled solar panel, but I need to animate it and I can\'t. You know about what I\'m talking.

Which 3d package are you using? A possibility that you can use in the future my solar panels?

[tadeass]

I\'m using blender. And yes, maybe I can use your solar panels on the ATV, but they will need to edit a bit.

Ones we both finished (and probably release it during 1.6) then we can take a proper look at it.

[tadeass]

Ok.

I edited the poll. You can vote again, now you will vote for your favourite type of Energia rocket.

Pic\'s:

Vulkan:

Energia- Buran:

Uragan:

Energia- M:

My favourite Energia is Vulkan, of course.

[Dani-Sang]

Which one has the most cargo capacity?

[tadeass]

It is in the poll, in the '(.........)'. The Vulkan.

[TheCardinal]

An educated guess, the Energia- XS Surprise consists of the energia and six liquid fuel boosters?

[tadeass]

That\'s surprise.

[Jack3236]

Uragan (Energia II) is very interesting, but cargo system (attach pic) is is probably too complicated for KSP.

P.S. Yay.. first post...

[Kreuzung]

Not at all. Anything I can see on that pic has been already done. Uragan whould be the most interesting one I think.

Unfortunately in this topic is only seven people who appreciate this approach and unfortunately, probably will win the vulcan (next to big and difficult to full use rocket ....)

Hi, I have (hopefully) good news from the project. I\'m quite late, sorry, but I didn\'t have internet connection last week.

So, I had a lot of fun with shadows and texturing, results are quite suprisingly:

(Sorry, ME is missing, I must model new one)

Enjoy!

Make that eight. This approach would certainly be the most interesting (and probably the most difficult to fly).

In practice it probably would be very (/too) expensive to operate in comparison to non-reusable rockets.

They look smashing! (perhaps not the best choice of words).

Hi,

After some troubles, I have first final part for you. It\'s SRB.

You can download it here: http://www./?vu9x69g04g7bxe7

Archive includes three parts:

Ariane-SRB - First cfg version

Ariane-SRB-v2 - Better and maybe fina cfg version

Ariane-SRB-v3 - Version for testing

Feedbacks are welcome, enjoy first part.

[tadeass]

Also, raise the Anti-Aliasing settings to 2x or more for better visual style of srb.

[AveXx]

Nice. So i tested the SRB on my version of the Ariane 5 ECA and the v2 is the best but i modified it a little bit. CFG attached to this Post if you are interested.

[tadeass]

@AveXx Thanks, I have to look at, but anyway, nice replica of Ariane 5 ECA, Have you got also Ariane 5 Evolution?

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

I had a fun with cycles and modelling, so now we have 2nd stage:

From left: Fairings, ASAS, Fuel, Liquid Engine with vernier, Interstage, Core stage, Boosters.

You mean the Ariane 5 ME (Midlife Evolution) or witch one ? I also build the Ariane 5 ES (with ATV) but well i have to work on the ATV.

Ohhh and now the Flames of the SRB comming out of the nossel not out of the bosters frame =D

[tadeass]

Here is just builded render with I have also one builded render, including kerbonaut at top of rocket for better imagination of the rocket\'s size.
