MaverickSawyer Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Not yet, we are going to get this as a working mod first. Then we will try to use infernal robotics to have the ring spin but we can't promise that it will work, but I want to have it spinning as much as you do Talk to Angel-125 about how he got his DSEV centrifuge hub to work.

Gkirmathal Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 @xxhansonmaxx, was just wondering something after having seen the movie. Could it be possible to make those radiators separate radially attachable parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxhansonmaxx Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 MotoKid600 I wouldn't consider my textures stock alike. I mix stock alike with bits of realism. That way it would fit with a variety of parts. None of my textures are 100% done, I go back to it every once in a while. Since this mod has a bunch of parts, most of the parts share one texture file which keeps the file size and the ram usage low. When the parts are in-game, it would look very different from what blender shows.Gkirmathal You mean the ones on the engine? The rads and the engine are gonna be one part, I could make a separate part that's just the radiators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaultesian Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I realize this was a discussion a few pages back, but I do hope you are using rotating hub ala Porkjet and others (the all-in-one hub), rather than the 'build it yourself and fine tune your hub' ala Angel-125's hub system. Besides the fact that there are fewer parts (Porkjet's version), Angel's, unfortunately, does have issues with errors in placement at time (I use both, and I like them both, but for reduction of errors, the all-in-one rotating hub is less buggy).Someone posted an error on Angel's forum page relating to this error (and I have seen it several times before in using his rotating hub system): http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/135717-1-0-4-Deep-Space-Exploration-Vessels-1-0-Build-NASA-Inspired-Ships-In-KSP/page4Again, it's not a game changer (I love Angel's mods), but if you want to reduce overall errors in your mod, you may want to consider this.

Gaultesian Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Wow, that is actually good: for those who want a simplified hub, that works great. For those who want the challenge to build a fully functional hub (complete with counterweights and all of that), they win too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wreckreation Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Why stock? Why is "stock alike" a thing?Here's a big hint: Jebediah Kerman's Junkyard and Spaceship Parts Co. Think about that for a moment........Kerbals cobble together their spaceship parts from stuff they find lying around or salvage from other things. It's the Kerbal way. It's the aesthetic of the game, and I'd bet money it was a conscious choice on the part of the developers. That kinda got knocked to the side a bit when they came out with Asteroid Redirect and its NASA-alike parts. Aesthetically, that threw a wrench into the works.I likes me a nice, shiny b9 spaceplane or a sleek kw rocket as much as the next guy, but I also like to honor the aesthetic and play in the Kerbal universe, where rockets are junkyard detritus held together with bailing wire and bubblegum, and are made of explodium.It'll be interesting to see where Squad is going with the stock revamp.

davidy12 Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Honestly, I love stock alike. Stock alike is something that just looks good with KSP. If you want realism get RO and DL FASA, CSS, and Raidernick's stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaultesian Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Sadly, I ran out of ketchup ....coincidentally, I am a botanist in real life, and a group of my botany friends went to the movie and loved it (sorry getting off-topic), even if they did take some liberty on the botany side (not much, but a little).I will survive on vikodin-encrusted potatoes until this mod is released.

OrbitalEscape Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Nice !I think the ring spin should be a bit slower.I'm sorry for the amount of times I've asked this but any idea when this wonderful mod will be out ?Yes the ring is spinning way too fast at the moment, I was just seeing if it would work. Also if you didn't catch it the ring is spinning the wrong direction than in the movie It's very hard to say how long but as soon as everything is textured then we will have a download. That might be 1-2 weeks. That definitely won't be a release version and it may be a month before we could call it released. As you can see most of the parts are in game now and it is "flyable" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theJesuit Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Worked on a MDV design...thoughts?Not having seen the movie yet... how does it dock?Funnily enough was wondering about a fuel tank or similar that would simply add to the bottom of a Mark 1-2 pod. There was one being linked somewhere else but that wouldn't necessarily have the same style as you are going for, and I'm uncertain as its development status. IVA might be lacking in something as well but that would cut down on your own development time.Looks good though. Looking forward to the whole mod. Keep up the good work.Peace.

Sgt.Shutesie Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I thought the MDV would have some fuel tanks sitting inside an inner hull that would fuel little thrusters on the outside, but looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
