It actually can house 4x AMRAAM, since i has 2 attachment points there and I always put 4 inside and because of clearance check, the bottom one was always launched first thus it worked pretty well. I will test it a bit more today/tomorrow and let you know how it works right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own no part of that part since I just edited small bay into medium. But the medium created by me can hold AIM-120 AMRAAMS, JDAM bombs or even some smaller cruise missiles, perfect for F-22/F-35 If you convert the texture file to the same format as the rest of the mod yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonu Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Ok, I will look into the issue in some free time, which I'm missing right now because of school and work. I will also update textures and convert config to BDA 1.0.0 stealth and RAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonu Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 (edited) Ok, I found few minutes to quickly test my bay and I figured out, 2 AMRAAMS packed inside is bit tricky, sometimes it works, sometimes it won't. Thus I want to make one more bay as Large bay with place for 4 AMRAAMs (just bigger bays, less fuel inside). I also set up the numbers to BDA 1.0.0 RAM. Textures are converted as DDS, what format they should be in? Edited November 7, 2017 by Toonu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus there are two options, pack AMRAAMs above each other in U shape where bottom will shoot first, or leave it as it is and "cheat" fuel as it is somewhere, even when there is only half of the mk2 fuselage left. http://prntscr.com/hapl7o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until that issue is resolved I wont include this in the download, an no cheating fuel into it isnt an option either. Sorry man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiscoveryPlanet Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 is it works in KSP 1.3.1?? btw where i can find this part of the plane? cos i need it for save my missile like F22 or Sukhoi Pak FA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes because i se I know that the mods original creator valued the appearance of things and I value function a missile clipping through the bay distorts both of those things. And okay go for it? Not sure if you thought that threat would change my mind but it certainly does not. 1 hour ago, DiscoveryPlanet said: is it works in KSP 1.3.1?? btw where i can find this part of the plane? cos i need it for save my missile like F22 or Sukhoi Pak FA Yes, and by downloading the mod?

TMasterson5 Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 Release 4 will be uploaded shortly to the dropbox and includes fixed textures, some bugfixing/reworking, and the long awaited medium bays in both styles.

Idk what you mean by that. I use dropbox because in my experience CKAN causes more issues than it solves, Spacedock is slow and unreliable, and manually installing mods is not hard at all. Dropbox is fast, stable, and has never caused me a single issue, so I stick with it. 13 minutes ago, linuxgurugamer said: FYI, clicking on the Assorted Patches link gors to a dropbox login Fixed, thanks, link permissions error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have run into issues where too many people downloaded a file from Dropbox, so they cut it off. CKAN and Dropbox are unrelated, why do you keep mixing them together? I'm not going to argue about CKAN, it's your opinion. But I suggested possibly using Github instead of Dropbox, it is faster, and has source control so you can go back to older versions if you want.

Scoundrel Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 So I decided to pop on and check out the forums to see what's new and what my old friends are up to and BLAMMO! I stumbled into this thread. Glad to see people are still interested in the mod and thanks to @TMasterson5 for taking over from SpannerMonkey and keeping this little guy alive and up to date! To address some issues: The large Red bay is scaled for AMRAAMs, and I even modelled the extension launcher from the F-22 for it (which I couldn't get it to work because of many reasons). IIRC BDA's AMRAAMs don't fit all 4 because the AIM 120s that Baha made are the A/B series, and the ones that would fit 4 in the bay were C/D series with the clipped wings/fins that are used on the F-22/35 (they may have needed to be staggered... I forget now). Though I started a 120D model, I never bothered to finish it as I started working on a modular missile system, so I just made the current missiles as sort of placeholders while I decided how I was going to implement my BuildYourOwnMissile/Gun mod (based on my original Kerbal Dynamics mod idea)... but I digress. If someone models a 120C/D properly and close to scale, 4x AMRAAM should fit and eject just fine without requiring a bigger bay. As for the AI, IIRC they have problems opening the bay because it needed to have the bay linked to a key and be programmed to hit the key to open the bay before deploying the weapon... but I don't think Baha ever got around to it (I could be wrong though), so whoever is running BDA (or its replacement) needs to add that launch sequence to the AI controller for it to work. Perhaps linking it to part detection? Not sure how that would be best implemented. And I apologize for the medium bay. I had intended to build a AIM-9 bay but life got in the way, so I am sorry for not getting that one done and out before life showed up, smacked me upside the head with Lucille, and turned my little RvB into an orphan. Finally I shall leave with a historical fun fact: If you're wondering why RvB is like how it is, it's because I originally intended that Red and Blue have different design philosophies to give each a unique balance and flavour inspired by all the "build your best jet fighter" challenges: Red is China + Russia + US (using Russian/Chinese ordnance) aggressor; while Blue is everyone else (with US, South African, Israeli and European ordnance). Obviously Blue was at a disadvantage, but that's what made it fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually addressed that issue just by adding two more bay sizes, so that issue is solved, so no worries there. Does this mean youre coming back orrrrrrr?

Either way, it's a wonderful bay! Thanks for your work on this mod, it's one of my favorites by far. Edited February 2, 2018 by njmksr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
