brandonmcfee Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) Hi....This are some of my KSP screenshots.. Screenshot #1: High orbiting the mun, picking a nice landong spot..this was my third landing attempt after two hard crashs Screenshot #2: Landed successfully after suffering hard time trying not to crash this one too....landed at 15 m/sec!! (tooo much speed).Screenshot #3: some shots showing my first successful orbit around Kerbin....very nice view of the surface of Kerbin...those bumps and textures are amazing!Screenshot #4: My first ever minmus landing mission....actually I haven't intended even going to minmus...It was a Mun mission....but accidentally I have overshooted the Munar insertion burn so I found my self captured by Minmus )More to come soon Edited September 15, 2012 by brandonmcfee Missing pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanamonde Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 but accidentally I have overshooted the Munar insertion burn so I found my self captured by Minmus Somebody should calculate the proportion of KSP missions that land successfully but not on the world they were aiming for. It's got to be around 10%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enture Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Today marks another big leap forward for my space program: the MunRov-1 mission safely landed the first wheels on another celestial body! This minirover, piloted by Milbles Kerman, was successfully delivered to the Kerner-von-Braun crew, landed on the far side of the Mun since last week, and should dramatically improve the exploration abilities of the mission.•Landing, Kerbal-style.•Now to head for the the Kerner-von-Braun landing site...•Milbles Kerman meets his old friend and colleague Harford Kerman, commander of the Kerner-von-Braun mission.•Dilmy is already chatting with the others when Shelrim joins the crowd:•The proud crew of the newly-formed Kerner-von-Braun Munbase! From left to right: Milbles and Shelrim Kerman, Cdr Harford Kerman, and Dilmy Kerman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enture Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 The munbase grows, now housing 18 Kerbal scientists.Looking good! Great, even. When I think I rejoiced so hard for getting my first rover delivered to an already-landed crew (see my previous post)...^^Actually, inspired by your Torus Hab, I tried -a while back- to build a surface hab based around 3 crew tanks myself, the main difference being that in my version, the crew tanks were ordered in triangle, and a tiny return stage allowed the hab deliverer to head back to Kerbin straight away. Alas, I think it made my processor and graphic card cry, so it never got further than the launchpad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucidLemon Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) I used about 5+ mods and some .cfg editing to create a functioning telescope. It can currently land anywhere on the planet, but I'm working on making a lander for minmus and the mun.The camera on the back is a view finder, I edited the telescope part to be a fixed camera with an FOV of 5.Unfortunately, it doesn't actually work for viewing the Mun, but you can use it to survey your surroundings. I hope to put a mobile version on the Mun to look for artifacts. Edited September 15, 2012 by lucidLemon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAO Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) ah! a contender! I have actually made the same telescope (minus the hinge, and it's space based)I have had one on my LunoStancaya-2 station and it helped me discover the second munar arch (gif will be up shortly)cameras have managed to take this breathtaking series of shots detailing a newly discovered geological structure on the Mun Edited September 15, 2012 by KAO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bioman222 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) Well, It's been a while since I've posted here, so.....Here's the Kerb car. A car for zooming kerbals around KSC, or on the moon! It uses Landing gear as parking breaks.I have parked the original crew at KSC were they can watch every one of my launches and not die. Here's Bob by the runway.Bill and Jeb wanted to watch my rocket launches, so they are 3 KM away from the pad.From left to right: Bill's car,launch pad, Jeb, Bill, Jeb's broke car.Download for the car below. Put it in the SPH, BTW. Edited September 15, 2012 by Bioman222 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucidLemon Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) The latter, I think it's due to the fact that the sky is not "really" being rendered. It zooms very well though. Note the lack of zoom on the sky Edited September 15, 2012 by lucidLemon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucidLemon Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 How do you get the precision to point it like that? I've almost finished a lander for my stationary telescope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enture Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) Oh my Jool, those last few posts are among the most beautifully genius I had the chance to read on the forums this far...! Good sirs/ladies, I tip my hat to both of you. And humbly beg you for more shots done using your telescopes; I mean look at this gorgeous Mün! Also, which mods did you use? I recognise Nova's Probodobidyne and the Fixed Cameras mod, but you spoke of 5 mods, LucidLemon...? And would you mind going in the details of your .cfg edits? I'd like to try and build a telescope myself now Again, and at the risk of repeating myself: bravo.

lucidLemon Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) Thanks! All that's required for the .cfg edit is to post this at the bottom of the telescope piece's part file. (with Probododobyne and the camera mod installed, of course)MODULE{ name = MuMechModuleHullCamera cameraName = Hull cameraForward = 0, 1, 0 cameraUp = 0, 1, 0 cameraPosition = 0, 0.37, 0 cameraFoV = 5}As for the mods, the number has changed a bit, because parachutes don't exactly work on the mun.Right now I haveThe telescope itself:Damned RoboticsProbodobyne (modified scope)Fixed CameraBACEThe lander:Test Weights (modified piece to be slightly heavier)Armstrong Memorial Plaque MechjebTruss PackNovapunchI think I have too many mods installed. The only stock parts on the thing are the RCS blocks.I might make a more download friendly version in a bit, so I can post it.

Enture Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) Oh, thanks for the details LucidLemon! I hope I can start working on it tomorrow; I do have Probodobyne, BACE, MechJeb and the Fixed Cameras mods installed, so I'll have a try and let you know what I could come up with I'll gaze one last time at this beautiful Mün shot by KAO, hang on.... I'm done. Going to bed now! Edited September 15, 2012 by Enture that's right. typo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szpw Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Here's a few more screenshots of the first time I landed a rover (Liltrak) on the Mun.The boosters weren't powerful enough to lift me off the pad, so I just jettisoned them while they were burning.The rover is attached to a platform on top of a small lander.It's supposed to use RCS to lift itself off the platform, but I just drove it right off instead as it did not work.After a 10km drive to a nearby crater, a Kerbal poses for a picture by the Liltrak.

lucidLemon Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I did it! Thanks to my extreme competence, I never had to use the debug console... ever.The whole flight was actually pretty easy, but I abused the infinite fuel pretty badly in order to put it exactly where I wanted it.
