Official xPDxTV *YouTube Series* Discussion Thread

[xPDxTV]

Hello everyone,

As I'm sure by now some of you may know who I am and what I do. If not here is a little bit of information about me.

I am a Let's Player on YouTube and I have a series called the "Let's Play Daily". I have a variety of work that i do and not all of it KSP related.

With that out of the way I decided to make a thread here for viewers to have discussions, ask questions, and basically anything that can't be addressed in YouTube comments or messages here.

If i am unable to answer your question there are people who's knowledge greatly surpasses my own that would be happy to help you out.

I will also keep a list of videos attached to this post for your convenience. I am also starting to use mods so i will keep a list of those mods here as well.

I'd like to thank you all for the support you have given me since my original post.

Please feel free to leave suggestions, comments, questions, concerns or feedback here.

With the now past us forum disaster i rebooted this thread since it was still intact and i've edited it to keep it up to date.

Cheers,

PD

Yeah YouTube is getting hammered with videos everyday. I've been around since a more recent version .15 when i first heard of KSP and made the amazing addition of this game to my channel. I believe I am about to hit my 20th episode. I just recently announced the split of the series so i will have a more "down to earth" build section and a "crazy plot / fun" story section of KSP so I think that's what really sets me apart from other KSP YouTubers.

Thanks i upload usually twice per week but when my schedule allows i try to squeeze in 3 times per week for KSP.

[rhj91]

I know that there are more mods than just the two that you have posted under "Mods Used:". So what are they?

[xPDxTV]

It took longer than i anticipated to get the list of mods together and create the appropriate links to all of them. Here it is, if i have missed any of them i will fix that as soon as possible so check the list above and get your mods today!

Thanks Now, i have to wonder why that simple message being too short for the forum...

[nerfboy621]

No I'm not using all of the mods he does but i do agree that he has a pretty comprehensive and similar list as well. There are other mods i am still looking into and still need to test. These are just the ones i've had some experience with and like. I would like to note that i don't like every part available in all of these mods, but it is nice to have them regardless.

I've only recently found WhiteOwl on YouTube and it was because of the forums. I had started playing around with mods before i found WhiteOwl and before i started recording episodes with mods (I have two install folders 1 vanilla and 1 with mods).

Playlist: Work in Progress

Hey everyone season 2 was just finished recently and I am also working on a new mini series. I'm calling this user requested challenges. Basically this idea was sparked from a user requesting that i do a challenge. He asked for it first so as the kick starter for this mini series his will go first and if you'd like to request a challenge i attempt feel free to leave comment down below.

Don't let that discourage you, i am currently hard at work on season 3s intro episode so look forward to that aswell.

I am unsure of what happened to the original thread that i posted with this video so i decided to move it here to my Official KSP Video Series Discussion Thread.

I will also put a link to this video in my first post.

Hey everyone,

As I'm sure most of you know by now a true American Hero died today. Neil Armstrong, the first man on the Moon, passed away earlier today.

With that I've prepared a short 8 minute video to immortalize this hero the only way I can forever on the internet KSP style.

I'd really like it if you would all head over to this link and give it a view.

Don't forget to leave a thumbs up for Neil.

Thanks everyone,

PD

"For those who may ask what they can do to honor Neil, we have a simple request. Honor his example of service, accomplishment and modesty, and the next time you walk outside on a clear night and see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink." -Armstrong Family

I like it, but i do have a question for you. What do you mean by land via VTOL exactly? Do you want me to land without the use of a parachute or wings and using only engines? I'd like a bit more description on that.

Also what do you mean by traditional engine? When i think of traditional engine i think of atmospheric engines used on planes and obviously those do not work in space.

Basically just fill in the grey areas a bit.

Other than that i really like your challenge so let's work out the kinks and get this show on the road.
