Ok thanks.

I had tried to do it myself, but it didn’t end up working.

thanks so much

Sorry, My bad! Actually everything is explained on page 22 by @hemeac in how to get IVA for Orion capsule!

 

@Ollz all you need is SSTU and TU and a patch file on page 22 to get an IVA for Orion capsule

Get SSTU in Gamedata folder and make a .cfg file of the patch given:

Name it "XYZ".cfg and place it in your KSP Gamedata, That's it!

TU is only for shiny looks of SSTU parts. If you only want the IVA you can delete all other things (delete Parts-folder). Everything you need is this folder: \SSTU\Spaces. TU isn`t needed.

Is there a build guide for the Orion capsule? Because @Friznit doesn't have it in his build guide. 

This has been rectified!

@benjee10

I have noticed that there are some streaks/shadows/blur are at the red foam tanks. Here are some pics:
Here is the white/bare version, everything OK:

and here the foam version:

You can see some streaks/shadows/blur which are flickering when rotating camera.
The same at some other parts like the engine mount for SLS and Juizer, Inline Connection Adapter, SRB Forward Adapter...

I`m at KSP 1.11 but noticed this at KSP 1.9 and KSP 1.10 too.

This mod doesn't include block 1b parts, but you can try rogerwang's wonderful mod which adds the interstage, as well as an EUS (minus the engines)

Ah..

[mxi_steel]

hi i cant find the dependencies for this mod. what are they? 

[Naeth Kerman]

They should be included in the GameData folder.

They are pre-packaged with the mod, so you don't have to worry about doing individual downloads

Attention: It is possible that the included dependencies are outdated if you use newer ksp-versions. So you need to download them separately.

Hello! benjee10...
I would like to use reDIRECT in a new career. But this time using only the parts that complement the Shuttle Orbiter Construction Kit mod. (Use 100% of the parts in another save)

I would like to know if this is possible or if I delete a file would have many problems? What can I do?

Yes, this is possible. Delete the folders Phase2 and Phase3. All you need for a shuttle (booster, engine, main tank) is in folder Phase1.

[KallangoVerde]

Excellent! this will be perfect...

thank you cheesecake!

reDIRECT | V0.10.1 | Shuttle-Derived Launch Vehicles

Revival of my old Shuttle-Derived launch vehicle mod for KSP 1.4.1. The mod has been completely rebuilt from the ground up, with new models & textures. It will not replace older versions of the mod to avoid conflicts. 

Principally, the mod adds STS-style 5m fuel tanks, and 2.2m Solid Rocket Boosters. Adapters and decouplers are also included! These can be used to built Space Shuttle (STS) stacks, or the Jupiter rockets from the DIRECT proposal that this mod takes its name from.

Screenshots:

Part variants are included!

• PHASE I: Jupiter
  • STS External Tank.
  • Jupiter Stack Parts, including adapters, separators and thrust plates.
  • Shuttle 4-Segment Booster Parts
  • 5-Segment Booster
  • 2 & 3-Segment Boosters (for SRB-X)
  • Jupiter Upper Stage Parts. 
• PHASE II: Orion
  • Orion Capsule & Associated Parts. 
  • Orion Service Module Parts
• PHASE III: Constellation/SLS
  • SLS Parts
  • Ares I Parts

SpaceDock is hosting only the last stable release. On my GitHub you will find the latest development versions:

This features the newest parts and updates but may not be properly balanced or stable, and will frequently be updated which may result in craft files breaking. Use at your own risk! 

This should work correctly with 1.3.1 and up.
