[0.25] Lionhead Aerospace Inc. - Icarus v0.4 updated

[Netris]

I was planing making this program one day, Bobcat is faster.

Considering he has done most of the ISS is less than 2 or 3 months, I guess he's a machine. Nothing to do against that. But there's still a lot a rockets/programs you could do if you want ^^

[Yogui87]

I'm quite interested in making Ariane 4 and 5.

[Fredonia]

Yogui, any news on the MEM update?

[daver4470]

I'm quite interested in making Ariane 4 and 5.

That would be awesome! I've been using the KW Ariane 5 analogue, which is a great heavy lifter, but it would be nice to have something that actually looks like the Ariane V....

[Tommygun]

I'm quite interested in making Ariane 4 and 5.

What about ESA's Automated Transfer Vehicle?

[Yogui87]

Yogui, any news on the MEM update?

It's under final testing by my testers. I'm waiting for feedbacks.

What about ESA's Automated Transfer Vehicle?

I like it and I don't know if anyone make it. So I 'll add it on my to do list.

[Canopus]

Yogui could you do the Ariane 5? I really like your work and i think nobody has done one before. Maybe even the Hermes Shuttle?

[Netris]

I like it and I don't know if anyone make it. So I 'll add it on my to do list.

I think Nutt said he'll do it for the ISS. But I've not seen anything yet. PM his to see where his working is ^^

[dimovski]

Well the Ariane 5 should be pretty easy to reproduce,you already have that style of srbs from KW rocketry,Im just not sure for the main engine...

btw,if anyone is in contact with Nutt, last year he posted on the "Russian engines pack" thread, that he ll do something interesting and asked for permission to use the models from "just vlad",so for what is he using them (yes,Im still trying to get an NK-33 into the game somehow)

[daver4470]

Dumb question... but can you zoom the 'telescope' camera on the Zeus Space Telescope? If so, what's the key to use?

EDIT: Never mind... I found the action group toggles. Somehow missed them the first two times...

Here some fresh news about the ATV for the ISS project:

When this will be finished, I'll release the MEM update and may be the Icarus interstellar ship if I can finish early tests. Then I'll work on Ariane 5.

[Fyrem]

nice work Yogui

[Netris]

I need a bit of time to finish the ISS, so take your time

[Yogui87]

ATV is under testing. MEM needs a few tweaks before being released and Ariane 5 is in modeling:

[WCOLE360]

Yogui, send me what you have on A5?

[Canopus]

Nice Vulcain engine:)

[Yogui87]

I can't for now because of my low internet connection (15min to upload the previous screenshot ). May be tomorrow.

[Yogui87]

Main rocket modeled and textured:

[Netris]

That looks great

[BobCat]

Very cool.

We real have a lot "real" crafts now.

[Netris]

Very cool.

We real have a lot "real" crafts now.

And we need more ! I need all of them

[zYnthethicz]

Are we gonna get a 0.20 update/fix on these?

[WCOLE360]

Soon, I'm finishing up testing the new MEM (lovin it), it's ready except for that Yogui has internet issues at the moment, and that he needs to do an engine tweak to an overpowered engine. By overpowered I mean it consumes fuel faster than the mansail consumes the fuel of a FL-T200 fuel tank. It has enough power though, just fuel consuming needs to be lowered.

Beautiful work on the Ariane and ATV!

[WCOLE360]

SORRY FOR DOUBLE POST. Yogui I think since it's done by ratios, this should be the consume rate, here's the original code (censored out part name )

// --- general parameters ---
name = NAMECLASSIFIEDFORYOGUI
module = AdvSASModule
author = Yogui

// --- asset parameters ---
mesh = model.mu
scale = 1.0
//rescaleFactor = 1

// --- node definitions ---
node_stack_top = 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0, 1, 0, 2
node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -3.5, 0.0, 0, 1, 0, 2

fx_exhaustSparks_flameout = 0.0, -0.2577, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, flameout

// --- Sound FX definition ---
sound_vent_medium = engage
sound_rocket_hard = running
sound_vent_soft = disengage
sound_explosion_low = flameout

// --- editor parameters ---

{

}

// --- liquid engine parameters ---

This should be the new one:

Instead of .9 Liquid Fuel Consume and 1.1 Oxidizer Consume, lets try .09 Liquid Fuel Consume and .11 Oxidizer consume. That should be 1/10th of the consumption rate from before.
