By installing Then I put the custom flags in the Squad\flags folder. Then edit all the sticker decal configs from Decal stickers and add those flags in. I named one flag to Discovery_1 Find the textureNames line in the config and put this in: textureNames = (alot of flags) ; Flags\Discovery_1 ; etc..

Z3R0_0NL1N3 Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 I would also like to see the parts kept at the scale of SPT. But, those things can be easily tweaked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I scale 1:0.625m and round to the nearest stock or otherwise used size. Shuttle boosters scale to 2.3m. So much closer to 2.5 than 1.875 ET is 5.0m SRBs are 2.5m LRBs for Block 2 and Buran will be 3.125m (mostly to save on parts) All the major stuff is done and I'm in the seemingly endless tweaking, and fixing phase. This has been a huge project but I'm starting to see the light. Outside of the most recent payload parts everything has been cleaned up, retextured and updated in some way. I can't wait to get all this finished and pushed out to you guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechanicH Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 @minepagan correct me if im wrong , but isn't the picture you posted the Energia project. I believe they used it on the Buran launch. But i might be wrong. @Pak You are doing an AMAZING job sir, cant wait to see/play with the upcoming version. Just want to say thank you very much, and that your Shuttle project brings back a lot of good memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Krieger_ Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) IMO the SRBs should be 1.875m since the real ET was 8.4m and the SRBs 3.7, so under half the size. That would make them more proportional. Same for the LRBs, they would look a bit too big at 3.125. Just a thought though, looking forward to playing around with these parts.

Its just that the only good pictures I found where the boosters weren't obscured were in the Energia-TKS configuration, not Energia-Buran. Not like I looked very hard, but regardless...

MrMeeb Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 For whoever mentioned the SRBs being SPT scale, which is around 1.875m (it isn't an actual scale I have them at, just a percentage increase from 1.25m), the reason they're that size in SPT is not because that's the right diameter, but more because if I were to go any wider, the boosters would be too long in relation to the rest of the stack. The decision for the SRBs to be 2.5m is fine. If you want to have your baby boosters, you can always make a cfg to rescale them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pak Posted December 15, 2016 Author Share Posted December 15, 2016 @awsumindyman Outside of Kerbalism I don't really do compatibility patches. I can't say I'd never do a patch for (insert mod), but if you'd like to see something supported I'd recommend making it and sending it over. All the 1.875 sympathizers will have to go...do something. I don't know. 2.5m is a little big as expected since 5m is rounded down and 2.5m is rounded up, but it fits the profile much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PickledTripod Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Are you guys playing with this mod and nothing else or what? If you really want 1.875m SRBs there's the Titan IV boosters from BDB that should be good enough. And for 2.5m LFBs you can use AB Launchers's or one of the dozens other mods that provides 2.5m parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every one like things to be how THEY like them... However, bringing it up and suggesting it ONCE may be ok, but repeatedly arguing with or badgering the mod dev after they have clearly stated its NOT something they want to pursue, is counter productive. If that does not satisfy them, then they are free to make their own, to their OWN liking... 44 minutes ago, awsumindyman said: Not to mention self sufficiency: by not relying on other part mods, Comorant Aeronology doesn't have to worry about finding replacements if one of its dependencies goes under. I'm sorry... I must be missing how this relates to the scale of parts that Pak wishes to include/NOT include in HIS mod...?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're historically accurate aesthetics, you may want to take a closer look at the picture Pak posted earlier, in which he made a size comparison between the real one (to scale), his 2.5m one, and a 1.875m one. There you can see his 2.5m ones are more accurate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
