I know some parts for the Saturn have it already but I do know the S-IC stage does not have it? or only the all white? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it only includes allWhite, the SOFI S-IC is from another mod that I don't even have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ra4nd0m Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) 6 hours ago, Pappystein said: Agreed, it would actually break the feel of the whole mod and require EVERY texture be redone.. I'm not asking for it tho. It's just hurts Actually, in russian copy of KSP (downloadable through steam game config) not only strings, but also all textures are localised and quality is suprisingly good ! It came as a suprise for me and acutally motivated me to do localization for NFT suite of mods. It was an amazing feeling! However, string localisation sometimes can cause some nasty behavour with some mods i.e. umbra space industries, which checks for engineer's presense through comparison with hardcoded "engineer" string instead of calling proper method to get localized string.

I should clarify - I'm making experiments for each location, I'm just not sure how many or specifically what. Regarding the X-15 experiments, are you going to implement entirely new experiments or existing experiments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the former, maybe something having to do with aerodynamic heating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richmountain112 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 It appears that all of the parts I installed appear to be locked despite having the required tech tree nodes. I do have some mods that tamper with the tech tree though so maybe that's causing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring installation issues, if you’re playing with the setting for individual part unlocks with funds, you’ll still need to go to R&D, unlock the appropriate nodes and purchase each part to use them (or pay for the full node unlock). Otherwise it should be fine with either Community Tech Tree or the stock tech tree. Other third party modded tech trees aren’t supported on our side, if they have issues it’s best to report it to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting a new save reveals that that the parts that are locked on existing saves have vanished completely on the new save. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richmountain112 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) I decided to rebuy the game on Steam and try to repair files from there. Hopefully that will fix it. If it's not that then it's a bug one of the mods that I don't really need. Edited April 13 by Richmountain112 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think I’ll need to add new experiments. A lot of these are actually tests of systems that would fly on later missions, so they can use those experiments. There are a couple stock ones, like the atmosphere experiment, that don’t currently have coverage in BDB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudgemountain Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Trying out a TUFX profile I found during a High orbit Gemini Mission. Might use it on other missions, There is a planet in the pack I am using that would work really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorg Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Atlas updates. Aft tank today We also now have a dedicated mount for Atlas SLV-3X "Fatlas" that can mount H1D. It will match the ring and there's no clipping. This aft tank will fit inside the standard skirt. The H1D will need to mount at a 45 degree angle (the prop inlet pipes will guide you) and though its close it just about fits You may want to lock the gimbal until skirt sep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richmountain112 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 (edited) Any plans to make the Gemini heatshields more like the stock ones (if they aren't already)? Last time I tried sending a Gemini spacecraft with the BDB heatshield to Eve on a real close flyby, it exploded during Kerbin reentry. This sounds kinda dumb but I'm planning on sending a Gemini spacecraft to Duna (with or without MOL) btw Edited April 16 by Richmountain112 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However first, this is possibly just an issue with Tweakscale - if you have it, I’d suggest fully uninstalling it (and ksp recall) and installing Tweakscale Rescaled instead, it is much more stable than the other version. i managed to fix it, i just had too many kerbals. thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I tried sending a Gemini spacecraft with the BDB heatshield, it exploded during reentry. As far as I know, there's nothing different from the stock heatshield. Here's what I've managed to get in game for the X-15 so far. It looks a lot more complete than it is - this is sort of the bare minimum to get this stuff in game and snapped together. A lot of the parts don't have some or all of their functionality, the aerodynamics are a wreck, etc. What I'm saying is, don't expect a GitHub upload in the next few days. Another variant I think I'm going to do is X-15/SERJ, which is... a fascinating engine. Combine a ramjet and a rocket engine, and then a supercharging fan. It would work like a SABRE/RAPIER engine as a dual-cycle engine. Modifications to the in-game craft would essentially just be a different ventral fin combined with an air scoop, and a different engine on the back.

CobaltWolf Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 On 4/11/2024 at 8:52 AM, DaveyJ576 said: For those of you interested in the X-15 (who isn’t???), I can highly recommend the book Hypersonic: The Story of the North American X-15 by Dennis R. Jenkins and Tony Landis. It is THE authoritative reference to the aircraft and program, no other book on the subject is necessary, except perhaps for their companion book, the X-15 Photo Scrapbook, a collection of photographs that they weren’t able to fit into the book. Both books are out of print, but copies can be found for reasonable prices. Jenkins is also the author of the three volume magnum opus Space Shuttle: Developing an Icon 1972-2013. The X-15 book has an exhausting amount of detail, but is well written and readable. Update - My copy of Hypersonic has arrived and it is INCREDIBLE. I only got to flip through it for a moment but I don't think I've ever bought a reference this dense, with this much detail and this many beautiful images. But that's not all - a friend ( @Sgt.Shutesie) was able to send a copy of the Photo Scrapbook as well and it should be here soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
