Souper's Stuff!

[Souper]

Hello, ladies and gentleman! I'm very proud to announce my new life as a modder! I'm making a small part mod named "Souper's Stuff" as my first mod ever created, it's in the alpha version right now.

However, i do not have very much of a budget at all ATM, so i won't be spending a penny on this mod. It will be entirely made by me, built by me, independently over time. The first release is a long ways away, and by that i mean you can expect a download link for version #1 within 3-5 days.

(This is best read with a British voice in your head)

My goal is to create a free, no-budget mod the community will appreciate, to mark my entrance into the world of modding. This thread will more or less be my devblog from now on.

My resources are highly limited, much credit to Part Generator V3 by Lando for some of my part's models, and to SQUAD for the models i took from them to make the rest. (Seriously, not having any budget means these are the only way i can get models.)

EDIT: Just learned i don't need money to make mods at all.

Current build: Alpha 1.00 first release

Next release: Beta 2 (GIGANTIC REVAMP)

Alpha 0.50 Changelog:

-Added UHLD Mk.I engine

-Added EFCU-420 explodium canister

-Added OS-3001 science module

-Added new resource: Explodium.

-Added tech tree integration.

-Removed old reject parts.

-Removed Herobrine.

Alpha 1.00 changelog

-Added new supercomputer part

-Added new data transmitter

-Added new generator

-Removed Herobrine again. Why is he even in KSP?!

Planned features (Green = next update, Blue = long-term):

New 1.0+ parts (mod is starting over)

-Remove Herobrine one more time (Seriously! Why does he want to take over my mod?!)

Awaiting Upload

I have decided to re-start the mod because in 0.90 it was absolutely broken. Perhaps 1.0 will be a new chance.

Umm no pics no clicks?

[smjjames]

What is it exactly? A collection of engines?

Also, pics please,

[Souper]

I think i'll postpone those screenshots until the next release, when it has more to look at. It only adds 3 ugly parts, nothing to show off really.

Until that release, consider this less of a mod, and more like a warning of a mod that's about to happen. Expect development screenshots tomorrow.

Good luck; I've only just started modeling in Blender myself. Looks like you're a bit farther up on the learning curve.

Ha! There's nothing to click, so pics are completely unnecessary. -insert sound clip of a whip cracking here-

Screenshots are sort of required if there are parts, whether they are ugly or not. It's not a rule on the rule page, but the community made it sort of a unspoken rule.

People are very careful on this site about viruses and malware.

You can even post your dev pics here, just the bare model to give us an idea of what's coming, and then final pics when you release the parts.

Part list ATM:

-New explodium fuel system for later career mode

-New supercomputer probe core, WIP

-New science module that packs all 4 sensors into 1 (but for some reason can't do experiments, workling on that)

-More to come

please put an imgur album of this on your first post. Also, your mod shows a completed rocket with 100% stock parts and some procedural shape on the top. Which parts belong to your mod? what are their characteristics?

[Souper]

That rocket was not 100% stock. And i've no idea on how to put an Imgur album on these forums. And the parts, since i can't model them, look the same as stock, just re-sized and changed a bit.

Well, what you can do is take the part, create a rocket with only that part, zoom in on it, then open the right-click menu and take a screenshot of that.

Also, I just went through your mod and found your 'explodium' powered 88000kN thrust engine. To make it more efficient, you have to alter the 'AtmosphericCurve' numbers, not the fuel ratio. Higher numbers are better. The best LFO engines have 390. Nuclear engines in the game have 800, so they are much more efficient.

Hi Souper,

To add an imgur album to your first post put the stuff in bold ([noparse]http://imgur.com/gallery/[/noparse]4T50g/new) into [noparse]

Javascript is disabled. View full album

[/noparse] tags.

It should look like this: [noparse][imgur]4T50g">Javascript is disabled. View full album[/noparse]

*you could copy/pase this if you like, it should work.

Volia! You get your imgur album in your OP!

All the best, and great luck with this mod!

[Souper]

Good news! I've set a goal to learn how to model parts in Blender, which would make this mod absolutely terrific. However, my school testing day is tomorrow, so i will be not working on my mod for a whole day.

[Yukon0009]

You really have a big head start over me in modeling.

[Souper]

I have recently overcome my inability to count pass the number 2. This mod's coming back up!

[Souper]

I have decided to outright re-start my mod from the ground up.

[Souper]

I give up, i'm not ready to mod.
