ISS Assembly with stock parts only and no mods. With all .craft files. (V1.04)

[KurtKong]

So, while I was doing my "regular" KSP series on my YouTube channel, a series committed to being a totally "Vanilla" run of career mode, I somehow ended up constructing the entire ISS with stock parts only. It took about 30 episodes and I was surprised how close to the real thing the end result actually looks.

I've edited the footage down. Here's a "quick" version of the assembly:

There were obvious limitations, like no robotic arms to manipulate payloads, so most parts were either docked using non-authentic little "tug boats" or by having RCS capability of their own.

The final part count is 1291, clocking in just around 195 tons.

This was all done with KSP V1.04, in a video series on this channel called "KSP: Operation Vanilla". It's in German. So if you speak the language, you might want to check it out.

If you would like to have a look at the .craft files, you can find them here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/21806372/ISS%20%2B%20Shuttle%20Craft%20files%20by%20George%20Plays%20www.youtube.com-c-GeorgePlaysOfficial.rar

Hope you like it. Looking forward to any comments.

Cheers,

George
