We have a winner! Our little Chaka was named after that Chaka when we rescued him from the Colombian jungle back in 2010.

Lmao! I had a feeling. Shall we sing some showtunes?

[Fingal]

Okay, maybe I'll take a break from the Moho spacecraft. I've got an Orion that can do the round trip but getting anything bigger is a challenge that I haven't managed to beat yet. Maybe I'll go back to Jool for a while, that'll be easy by comparison...

[YANFRET]

We'll See you there!

Err... Uhm... you mean the Will Farrel remake of the 1974 TV show?

We'll See you there!

That's just beautiful...

P.S. Why do I suddenly have the desire to rename one of my mods to "SLEESTAK"?

[YANFRET]

....Yesss but you see Chaka (the monkey) thinks that Chaka from the original show is ugly, and we really just liked the Chaka from the movie not the show, because of his playful mischief

In fact if you show Chaka too many pictures of 1970's Chaka it is very likely that he will poo on his paw and throw it.

hi

I like the IVA of the ALCOR and the Orion. But I have a problem. I can`t see a Navball.

Here´s a picture.

Chaka and RPM are the only two Mods i have installed in the moment. When I use other Mods with RPM there is everything OK.

You might download this and try it if it does fix it lets us all know https://www.dropbox.com/s/9zjobe3jl3ampuk/ASET_Props_1.1.zip

thanks to tweakscale, this was possible

Javascript is disabled. View full album

the clamps are still derping in 1.0.4, so I had to make two other launches, the first one I removed the towers, still had problems with the clamps derping around and blowing my right SRB... the second one was successful though

BTW, it has 12k dV, I might mess around with the stages and maybe make a more economic variant to compete with the XLV... I had half tank left in the second stage when i decoupled it, S-IVB (with J-2X) was mostly decorative...

@MeCripp

It didn´t work for me. The same as before.

A second issue: The Windows of the Orion are at the south, the IVA-Sight looks north.

A question: How can i use the Fustek Stationparts along with Chaka? When I copy the Fustek-Folder to GameData i cannot see any parts in the VAB.

And: Is there a Chance to make a IVA for 6 Kerbals for the Orion?

Many Questions, i know.

You can use the original Internal for the orion from bobcat, it has 6 seats and it faces in the right direction.

[Cheesecake]

hm, i used this in 0.90. But I like the ASET-IVA and to control the ship from this...

Could you please try removing the Fustek folder that came with CMES before installing the new version of Fustek and let us know if that fixes it?

6 Kerbal orion IVA is in development, which will also fix the Orion point of view issue.

OK, now it works.

6 Kerbal orion IVA is in development, which will also fix the Orion point of view issue.

Does dies contain a full controllable IVA like Aset?

Looks pretty awesome!

I did notice something with the command module though. I realize you are using ASET's internals for the command pod (great choice...best internals in the game), but I did notice that where the windows are in the command pod, and where the windows are in the internals, they are on opposite ends of the ship (i.e. when you make the roll while ascending, instead of looking out into space, you are looking down onto the ground). Is there any way of fixing that, or is that more of an internal/external configuration that cannot be modified.

Cheers, and keep up the fantastic work...your deep exploration pics have got me drooling!
