Hello again silentvelcro!

I am downloading all of your work!  I find them of superb quality and great attention to detail.  Keep it up!

[silentvelcro]

Check out the new LRAero release.

[silentvelcro]

All LonesomeRobots Aerospace mods have been updated. Now reflections are handled by the awesome Textures Unlimited mod by master modder Shadowmage. The solar shader is used in all solar panels.
There has been some bugs removed and a little cleanup on all mods. TextureReplacer is no longer used by any LRAero mods, so if you are not using it for anything else you can delete it from your GameData folder.

Also the Duna Base Camp & HOYO CEV expansion has been released. Check it out.

Hello @silentvelcro,

I am not sure if I am doing something wrong or the issue is with the design but the Ares I-X is very unstable at lift off from Kerbin.  The Rocket comes apart soon after take off no matter what I do.  Your input is much appreciated.

@THX-1138 do you use Kerbal Joint Reinforcement?

@silentvelcro  No, should I use it?

[silentvelcro]

@THX-1138. Give it a try to see if you like it. I always use it. If you don't like it we will revisit this.

[THX-1138]

@silentvelcro Tried Kerbal Joint Reinforcement and it made a massive difference on how stable the ARES I-X rocket is now.  Thank you!

Not sure if it was an issue with my merging the folders for this and your other mods but I tried installing it last night and ran into frequent issues with crashing. Would it be possible to post an archive of the Ares I-X HOYO, Altair Lander, Ares X and maybe the Duna Lander? I just want to make sure I am merging all the files and sub folders correctly.

Last night I would open the craft files in the VAB and as soon as I clicked launch it crashed.

Hello @flatlineskillz. Sorry for the inconvinience. The only time i ever had a crashing issue with any of my mods, was because of RasterPropMonitor and or ASET props/avionics.

I suggest you replace the ASET and JSI folders on your gamedata with the ones from one of my mods. Do not overwrite them, just delete the old ones and paste fresh folders from one of the mods.

I love that this mod still works!

Sad to see you've gone.... silent (Pun intended)

But I appreciate your modding work!
