So,is it okay to release tomorrow？Not pushing u ,just it seems that I‘m gonna have another week away from my laptop……

We'll have to see. Shouldn't take long to get the new upper stage, Sylda and fairing into the game. Still need to configure the mod for Career mode though. And decide what I am going to do with realistic fuels and all that. I'm basically 98% done, just small annoying stuff that needs to be done.

For what it is...You have the ECA version done, and while it may not 'look' pretty, can we still get it too? It's nice to have options IMO. I have no problem waiting a bit for complete release when we get the additional ME version too.

Especially since we aren't going to see the Ariane 5 ME in real life since it was cancelled from everything I can tell.

There is nothing wrong with the way ECA looks, ME just looks better and is more advanced. My goal with Ariane 5 was to have one vehicle for launching ATV and one vehicle for launching satellites/payloads. The ECA upperstage (without HM7-B) will be included in the update, which will allow for the Ariane 5 ECB configuration. I'm not entirely happy with how the HM7-B engine looks, so instead of delaying the update more, I will exclude that engine from the update and work on it for Ariane 4 at a later date. Once Ariane 4 is live, then people can make the ECA variant if they want to.

I could release the entire ECA right now, but I don't want to release an engine I'm not 100% satisfied with.

To anyone interested and/or following this mod; I am curious to know which launch vehicle you would most like to see after Ariane 5. There is a poll on page 1 where you can chose which one you'd prefer to have. This will help me in terms of what needs to be done first, as I am currently switching between 3 launchers.

Thanks guys :)

Soyuz ST all the way!

So... it's kinda looking like ariane 4 is winning the poll so... you should do Soyuz ST after that!

If not because why not, because it's the not dying with of a totally not dying girl... me... :P

That last part made no,sense...

Great mod, it's a pity it isn't in stock dimensions. It would have been nice to have real rocket replicas in stock ksp

Well with a title like "Real Scale" it really is meant for RSSRO. Having them in actual 100% stock dimensions will mess with the scale between all the different parts, but it is definitely do-able. Once I run out of things to do, I can probably spend some time "stockifying" them a lil bit :) But for now, this mod is meant for those who want to play around with actual real replicas and play with the big boys in RSSRO.

Maybe you could look here or here. I believe at least one is ksp stock size (not sure tho, did check a while back)

edit: forgot to mention that it's related to the ariane 5 (at least, iirc)

I would like to make an argument for the Titan IV (or any of the other vehicles) against the current leader, the Vulcan. As much as I would like a Vulcan model because I am super hyped for that rocket, it uses my components that other modders have put together, mainly the Centaur upper stage for the early models and the AJ-62 SRBs, unless you plan to borrow those models from that individual. In any case, having redundant parts like that does add up on memory. Being someone who mods other's mods for my own enjoyment, mainly config file edits, it wouldn't really affect me but I am thinking about the casual modder who just throws mod packs into their game. Whatever the case, I love your content so I'd be happy with whatever the masses choose. Just my two cents worth :P Can't wait for that Ariane 5!

I absolutely agree with you about the Vulcan. In my opinion it is just a fancy Atlas V with a new paintjob). Of course I know it is much more than that, but for the less technical people out there it just looks like an Atlas V with different colors. The reason for that launch vehicle being in the poll is because of the amount of people who have contacted me about making it. So I figured "meh, why not". I'm actually surprised to see it leading the poll right now :P
