hah yeah you cats seem to be a talented bunch so a few stretch goals for ya,

1.2 around the corner forgot antennas will probably be the next cool thing to have. specially tracking ones like remotetech used to have.

oh and forgot conformal fuel,rcs tanks there used to be a mod i think the name was bft or something like those tanks looked pretty slick.

Antennas we got. Adding 1.2 functionality to them is a grand idea. You're a winner!

Those things are very tricky! In our blindness from the light, we had not thought much about other sizes for the inflatable. That should be an easy thing to implement. Good idea!

I think it would be nice to have RealPlume support (Yeah , I know you told that you will not support RO but this is not really RO , and I get that this is a huge amount of work to make configs for all the engines , I just think it would make the whole pack to look better overall , also the stock plumes make me vomit) , If I would know how to write configs I would happily do this myself...(altough it's never too late to try)...

One kink here is that some of the engines that we are firmly committed to using ( many of them actually ) use the older engine module style and it would be a huge amount of work to re engineer them to support RealPlume... so any implementation we did would always result in "Hey why didn't yo do that across the pack??"

Also when we talk about the huge size of the pack, adding data for plumage is a tough sell.

I am using realism overhaul and this happens all the time. It just freezes. Rarely, its able to get past it and actually load. Whats going on?

is... is this mod even supported by RO?

shizzak · September 29, 2016

it did before. I removed the X in the cfg name and the game loaded but it was the NON RO part which was 1/4 size smaller than its supposed to be

Yep, as best as we can. And new configs for KSP 1.2 are on the way.

@shizzak revert the cfg part name change, open the "RO_CMES_Pod.cfg" file and go to the line 1022. Replace the "Engines" definition with "Engine" and it should be OK.

shizzak · September 30, 2016

those cfg files you have. Is there a way to download them if so. Where would i need to put those files

F3ARSTUNTS · October 7, 2016

@phineasfreak where do you place the files?

   MODULE
   {
       name = ModuleAnimateGeneric
       animationName = KLLDeployAnim
       startEventGUIName = Lower Leg
       endEventGUIName = Raise Leg
       wheelColliderName = wheelCollider
       suspensionTransformName = Piston
       orientFootToGround = true
       landingFootName = FootHing
       // Axis is aligned forward instead of up
       alignFootUp = true
       suspensionUpperLimit = 0.65
       impactTolerance = 6500
       suspensionOffset = 0, 0,0
       suspensionSpring = 5
       suspensionDamper = 1
   }

use the above to replace the MODULE {name = ModuleLandingLeg} block to get the ASET Landing Legs going in 1.2.

i don't know if it's a thing yet but maybe real plume for the engines?

This is the answer that I got...

GERULA · November 24, 2016

I really hope this mod will be updated and won't die

Mecripp · November 25, 2016

I have all the parts in game now need to work on all the cfg's and see what don't work but will put Chaka Monkey on the top of the list to get it fixed up and hoping to get back in touch with @YANFRET

BrickMacklin · January 9, 2017

Is there a way to make all the parts appear on 1.2? I have the mod loaded and most parts appear but parts such as the Orion cockpit do not.

danklar · January 12, 2017

So I am trying to use this and there are a whole slew of parts missing, any idea?

Most likely the missing parts are victim to the line with "strut" that needs to be changed to "part"

This was a fairly substantial / unexpected change. But @MeCripp and several others seem to be looking into it. I would say just be patient and keep an eye on the thread.

has pointed most of the problem out @YANFRET has taken a break from KSP I'm not sure if the mod can be posted in the thread or not and i don't really want to try and make a MM to change all of it so if i can get back in connect with Yanfret i see if i can just update the downlinks
