What is the minimum I need from Tantares for Contares to work? 1 hour ago, Nowater said: I want to install contares over ckan, but get Module RealPlume has not been found. This may be because it is not compatible with the currently installed version of KSP The Contares capsule K150 uses the IVA of Tantares/Spica and KhiKa uses the IVA of Tantares/Soyuz. Is Tantares not installed the crews of these pods are not displayed and an IVA is not possible. Otherwise Contares is to operate smoothly without Tantares / TantaresLV. As described on the first page is RealPlume necessary to obtain reasonable sound effects and engine-effects. Contares runs without RealPlume, however it can lead to strange or no sound and engine effects. Contares Although listed on CKAN however I recommend the manual installation. Actuall RelaPlume is compatible to 1.0.5. Take a look at GitHub. Edited January 7, 2016 by hraban Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowater Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Now it functions, maybe it was a hickup of ckan. Tantares is installed, too btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hraban Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 The next update is coming up and so today there are again pictures from the workshop.The CandyBox is a small 0.625m capsule for returning soil samples, ore and scientific experiments.With KhiLm and KhiLab the Chinese series is initially completed. KhiLab is, the Tiangong-1 space station modeled for two Kerbals. KhiLm is the associated service module with water and air conditioning. The laboratory needs light and a functioning airlock.Not shown are 4 types of RCS blocks with 4, 3, 2 or 1 nozzle. All nozzles have a base angle of 22.5 degrees to the installation level.The lander module with 1.875m diameter and radial tanks will have to wait a while. Like the concept, but I'm still not satisfied with the appearance of the radial component.With the experience gained from the Zenit engines (RD-171, what a performance monster) I have the thrust of many engines revised again.For the launcher Arijana (Ariane) other components are planned, but will not succeed in the next update it.

Also the engines. Small parts such as the separator-solid rockets still need to be built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hraban Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 Another view of the range of the Ariane 1-4 parts. PAP = Radial Solid Boosters (Ignition 6 sec after liftoff) PAL = Radial Liquid Engine Boosters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hraban Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Obviously, it is not necessary to publish an update soon. So i take my time to integrate the Aliyana (Ariane 1-4) parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the name (Aliyana) Fragil that hits it! It is not always necessary to use more powerful engines when the material science dominates and competent engineers are hard at work. Not for nothing the Ariane 1 to 4 was the most successful and safest Launcher for scientific and commercial payloads.

Aliyana 44 PL+ Launch *shudder* That's why I dropped out of the engineering track and become an artist. I could (still can't) get over hopelessly over engineering everything. I'm probably the last person who you'd want to design something light, like a LEM. I was about to say that it's funny to me that the Ariane line is virtually unheard of to the American public, compared to all of our launchers. I had certainly never hear of Ariane before I started getting involved in KSP. But thinking about it, I suppose that the average American doesn't know / wouldn't recognize anything space related besides the Shuttle, Apollo/Saturn and maybe Mercury + Gemini.

Pok-E-Mon has no animation but i will use the science-funding with the camera. If i use the Module {} ... the part will lift off and drift away.

If i use the Module {} ... the part will lift off and drift away. It is a very useful module even if you're not animating! Your best bet is to get the reference CFG from the thread and edit it as needed. I would be very happy if more people started using it, since then it would be more of a standard and it wouldn't just be me and @AlbertKermin bugging him to update it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! If all works well, the new release become a lot of antenna- and radar-dishes. So an SAR-LUPE dish, the Com-Dish from Shenzhou, framed dishes from various satellite.

I have a lot planned for my next update and I'd like to minimize overlap. So if any of yours look too close to mine I can edit mine to look different.
