IR for 1.3 / KJR issues

4) Optional -  If you wish to use the Surface sampler - Install the Surfacesampler.dll linked below into GameData/MagicSmokeIndustries/Parts/Rework_Utility/Plugins

5) Optional  - KJR unofficial recompile will work with KSP 1.3 and IR 2.0.12 - Linked below

6) Optional - KAS Magnet / Grasper Breaking? Increase "breakForce" under the KAS module in the part cfg to "= 999"

It's been a while since I've been able to use Infernal Robotics, so I have two questions with it's current state:

• How critical is TweakScale?
   
• Did the rework parts pack get integrated into the base mod?

If you're willing to put the time and effort into it, TweakScale requirement can be completely removed.:)

this sounds stupid but, if i install 1.3 files on 1.2.2 ksp, would it work? or should i stick with maintenance version

You can use older release of IR, available here https://github.com/MagicSmokeIndustries/InfernalRobotics/releases/tag/2.0.10

Thanks, i installed this too and works well, except wings being weak and fluttering but that was always same before in my experience.

Please help! I downloaded Infernal Robotics on CKAN but no parts are showing up for 1.3. I tried downloading manually, but no luck.

Can anybody try this rover with robotic parts in 1.2.2 and help me understand why when I launch it it shakes by just standing at the runway making it impossible to drive?  it shakes so bad it ends up exploding. Before I added my robotics arms, the wheels worked fine. Here-s my build> https://ufile.io/u9q8v Thanks in advanced. I dont know somebody will be able to help me, but just in case...

Please try deleting MagicSmokeIndustries/IRActiveStruts/Plugins/ActiveStruts.dll

It is very obsolete and most likely the cause of the problems.

@Ziw Should I remove it from 1.2.2 as well?

Are you building a swing wing type aircraft? And are you using KJR as well as quantum struts to secure the wings?

Examples of my swing wings:

Active struts has unfortunately been incompatible for a while. Last version I am aware that was working was in KSP 1.0.5

But you can try Quantum Struts. I've had great luck with it.

Following these instructions for 1.3 leaves me with no IR parts tab.

Parts can be accessed searching through tech levels and size, but are only available through advanced parts searches.

Thanks to @V8jester i managed to make this work properly. Still not perfect but best i can get, loving it.

Hey that looks really good! I especially like the cockpit design you came up with. Looks a lot more scale than what I used on my B1.

Nice work!

[Conquerer]

I can't go EVA when there're any parts of this mod near by, or the game will crash. Game version is 1.2.2.1622

[ctbram]

Is there an official 1.3 version of IR?  I thought I had installed it from CKAN but I see no parts?

check parts folder in Gamedata/magicsmokeindustries. If it's empty, you need to install part packs.

Im not familiar with ckan, i can only recommend doing it manually.

[kcs123]

No, there is no official release for KSP 1.3. Even in 1.2.x. it was unofficial BETA release all the way.

There is instructions couple of pages back how to download and install everything manually. Once it comes out from BETA it will be available trough CKAN, but also it can happen that another KSP release updates sooner, so nothing is certain.

I followed the instructions for 1.3 and installed both the original and the rework parts packs. I can see & place all the parts, however the IR module only controls the original parts, it's like it's not seeing the rework parts. 

 

Any ideas?

[jrf]

I have a slight problem. I have KSP 1.3 and I can place all of the parts from this mod but their is no tab for it in the parts menu and the tool bar icon is missing so I can't use any of the functions of this mod. All I can do is place the parts.

This is very unlikely, the IR either works for all IR parts or doesn't work at all. Post your log.

Check this and follow closely:

I've almost completed the IR installation (KSP 1.3) , I have a parts in menu, I can place them to the ship, save, load, launch. But I can not control them. The GUI menu does not works. When I clicking button, nothing happens and I have an exception "NullReferenceException Object reference not set to an instance of object". Under 32 and 64 versions of KSP.
