Please note the following mods also require the installation of SM Industries
SM Armory, SMI Missiles and Launchers, SM OST and T , SM AFV's
Failure to install SM Industries will result in names and descriptions being displayed incorrectly and other related features will not work(don't panic the correct version of SMI is included in every download)

Latest Update

 

v0.99.99.93

Further enhancements, localisation. texture updates 

SM Armory for KSP 1.4.X and BDA 1.2.X ONLY
 

Important note regarding recent BDA changes specifically BDA 1.2.2.2 see spoiler 

Spoiler

BDA has changed the way it's editor category is populated  this means that  SM parts will no longer  appear in the BD Armory  editor category .   This is  not an issue,   I was aware of this proposal for some time and as such, months ago, all parts gained a specific editor category and all the parts where assigned to the correct category as determined by type and usage.   .
Via the method below .

 

IF you have properly installed the mod  every single part in the SM group has it's own category in the editor sidebar,


6MXveH2.png
 

Visible here, are the category selection buttons for , SMA, which contains radar APU's and other miscellaneous SMA parts,  SM Marine, all the smaller scaled ship parts and equip.  SM armory tanks , which contains all the tank parts,  SM Armory Turrets and guns which contains all the turrets and guns that are not specifically tank related . SMA missile and launchers , which unsurprisingly contains 99% of all the SM missiles and launchers, that are not specifically tied to a particular launcher or craft. There are a couple not shown as the icon will only appear when the SMIndustries plugin detects that the mod that uses the category is installed correctly.

  Creating these categories requires nothing from the user except correct installation of the mod. 


I for one am extremely happy that after many years I can again easily find BDA parts, instead of wading through a list of over 300 items , most of which are not made by or part of BDA,  but supplied mostly by expansion  mods

The original BDA expansion contains over 100 items to enhance your military might

from 7.7mm WW1 machine guns to modern CIWS systems , WW2 field guns to 152mmAGS turrets there's a weapon for every eventuality

With SMA now containing 100 parts it's time to go for V1 and full release,SM Armory is also to my mind complete and as such very little will be added, however my intention is to make extra packs to add on if the user wishes, rather than forcing and increasingly large download

This version includes the impossibles, things that were thought impossible to create with BDA. These turrets ALL designed for CIWS use feature rapid fire cannons and AA missile rails.  Also as usual are loads of normal turrets some based on fantasy , some on reality, but wherever the inspiration came from I've attempted to make them relevant to the Kerbal world. With notable and deliberate exceptions  everything here is appropriately powered for Kerbal Kombat. I've also spent a good amount of time making sure that they work with SM Marine and The Large Boat Parts  as i find that's the situation in which most of these will be used

Some of the latest additions

SM_Armory for KSP 1.3.1

Notes

NOT installing the  SM_Industries folder will mean that parts may not appear, strings will be nonsensical and mod performance will be reduced

On installation you will notice that the mod contains an extras folder. In this folder you will find the Secubots security robot turrets, A weapon probe for connecting to turrets for standalone use, meant for use with the field guns, the pirate ship cannon and the 88. 

  Also included is a filter extensions addition simply unzip and merge with filter extensions  to get advanced sorting of SMM products

Old School Turrets and Never Enough Dakka

With the uploading to SpaceDock or NED and OST I have decided to roll all the support and development into one thread, this should enable me to hear of and fix any issues ASAP. Although there will be little further development on these two packs( unless requested) I will continue to improve both function and appearance on all items, and of course I'll keep them working

I have received some interesting other items in the assets i received from the original author PrototypeTheta  and this will also make an appearance shortly

THE NED REDUX RELEASE

Works in 1.22

Note concerning issues.

There  is now a git repository for SMA in order to access and provide a hard record of any issues that occur, as the modlist grows the more i find i'm forgetting and it makes sense to do something proper for a change .  You can find the issues reporting pagehttps://github.com/SpannerMonkey/SM_Armory/issues  at the following location 

 

 

Thanks as always to @gomker @XOC2008 @DoctorDavinci @TheKurgan and occasionally @colmo :P for testing bug hunting and sanity preservation

Hi all yes the button is new, i don't ever expect anyone to bother, you are certainly not obliged in any way, I was asked by several people this week, if there was a donation button in order to show their appreciation, the wife saw the requests, and after a some discussion i have given in and added a donation facility

Wow the KGV turret lol I thought our team was the only one willing to make such heavy turrets:)

It's not that hard to check out sizes of real weapons in fact, just a little patience on looking for photos and drawings.

I will pretty much make and take on anything, don't really care, although several hundred ton turrets are going to have a limited appeal, love your stuff btw

Yea i did all that, endless pawing of books and pics , trawling random blog sites for rare images, it's just that I'd like them to be more kerbal sized, my experience with the FPS mod has shown me  that the nearer things get to being kerbal proportioned the easier it is to lose your self in the mayhem, I've yet to see if it holds true for the rest of the destruction minded community  :) only time will tell

Wow, awesome.
Some guns just ask to be rescaled downscaled tho. BDA seriously lacks small guns, and those ones are over scaled in respect to real ones. For example, GAU-19, that Gatling on semispherical mount and a couple of others.

I thought I'd been quite generous with the small stuff, but a couple of images for scale will likely illustrate size better than a solo pic of the gun.

Fair enough the big ones are big, but not outlandishly so

(and in case you want smaller even still, I know a mod for that)

Hi all, Having suffered from a fail to launch at the weekend, sorry for any disappointment,  I spent all day Sunday trying to debug a turret interior and a couple of other irritations and subsequently found out after many hours that I was actually screwing with myself ( I have several ksp installs and the unity address was pointing to the build copy not the testing copy %$£&£&£* !! so none of the changes appeared ). I finally gave up on the interior and fixed some other stuff as well.

I was thinking earlier that I needed a turret to mount these new surface mount guns I've done, I'd asked BD if the turret module will work as stand alone, eg without an attached weapon or radar module and it wont,        But that's OK because the better solution is to rig the turret as a pod, fit it with asas and plonk it on top of an IR free docking washer, I'll make my own turret ring part now I know this works, launch and PROFIT. It works astoundingly well, very happy indeed.

So here's a couple of pics of the device in question, one of the big wins here is that because of the Infernal robotics plugin magic anything placed on or in the turret moves with it,  Awesome is not a word I us a lot, but I see great potential here,  So with no further blather I give you the generic turret mk1 currently fitted with  a pak 55 , a 105 mm derp gun, a 75mm submarine deck gun, an  XM 301p, a 75 mm gating . a 50 cal browning and crewed by 3 warlike Kerbs

Welcome back, @SpannerMonkey(smce) - the hawks are taking over here...

The one downside of this method of making turrets is there's no way to operate it using guard mode, I think? It might fire if lined up on target but that's about it.

Other turret weapons placed on it should work, though.

What you say is mostly true , though  all the guns attached to that turret have both pitch and yaw, the turret has neither,  they will operate successfully in guard mode within those ranges.  Typically they have between 10 and 25 deg of yaw and up to 40 deg of pitch,  that gives quite a wide operating range over a 8km shot distance,

This kind of turret is more for those who want to build a tank and have it usable by kerbals, rather than use as remote turret. 

The only tank turret (holding crew) in the range with gun/turret permanent combo is currently the panther turret and the  perhaps large 203 turret could be mounted on a land chassis and function fully in guard mod, though it's a bit heavy, I've largely stayed away from those as they can be had from the old school turrets mod, and when finished the NED fix, although I'm not averse to creating a few

And as for when it'll be released  very soon(TM)

Oh and thanks for the welcome back everybody :cool:

Would you join C.A.L? Seems that you have many turrets in the same caliber with NAS ones, and it'll be neat to use more common resources

You can add resources to it too if you have a SpaceDock account

There's no harm having an IR powered turret in the main battle tank of General Montkermanry, and the rest of the battalion using Old School Turrets on guard, following it using BurnTogether (which iirc still works).

i absolutely LOVE this mod! i mean, i havent got it yet, nor do i have BD armory, but i love how some of the turrets arent based of IRL turrets, like other mods. but you know what would be cool, if impossible? stock-a-like weaponry. i mean, im not 100% sure how it would look, but a interesting idea nonetheless, right?

Hi  and thanks for asking , I've got CAL in my test game and i have drawn a lot of the ammo values from it, I personally like it  but  my only reluctance to fully embrace it comes from the ever increasing amount of ammo boxes, which added to the 30 something turrets in this pack so far. may  be a large burden for a lot of prospective customers.

Now if there was for example a universal CAL ammo box that could be filled, choosing from a little GUI perhaps, what type of ammo it contained, I'd be all over it, anybody know a, idle plugin genius?

Totally agreed, tested this earlier and I'm quite happy with the way it all works, it's not the ideal, but it is the best available to a none coding type such as myself

Thanks for the love :)   I've always leaned toward the unreal , never been made. kind of mods, some of the turrets  are pure fantasy, because that's what I fancied at the time, the more real world designs are mainly a result of the very early days of the mod, when i struggled a lot, and it was easier to copy and replicate something already built. With the exception of the KGV turret which still has wet paint, and some of the maddest are only days old.  Unfortunately stock-alike is well beyond my texturing ability, I can barely deal with black and white.

Not averse to stock alike models if you dream something up though

That's actually a really good idea to get everybody what they have been asking for on the BD thread. Using a docking washer to move the turret with other guns attached to it. There is a certain elegance to simplicity. Nice work brother man!

Now if there was for example a universal CAL ammo box that could be filled, choosing from a little GUI perhaps, what type of ammo it contained, I'd be all over it, anybody know a, idle plugin genius?

The Firespitter plugin has offered the ability to switch the texture and with it contained resources of a part for several years. Shouldn't need any coding, just some cfg hacking?

I'm looking into that and trying to do some changes. It shouldn't be too hard as far as I know and I'm planning to add TweakScale support too

As I recall, you couldn't have FSswitcher and Tweakscale on the same part. Worth a try though.

Edit: nevermind, it was fixed in 2014!
