1.75m Soyuz?

[MaxwellsDemon]

Ever since Making History's Vostok/Voskhod analogues came out, I've been wishing for a compatible set of Soyuz capsules.  Tantares is nice but is all based around 1.25m parts and doesn't seem to react well to TweakScale (at least in my admittedly limited skill range), and Homegrown Rockets/HGR is old and needs a considerable amount of tweaking to make them work...  Anyone working along these lines?

@MaxwellsDemon you can mod Tantares...Here's my config for it. This has a whole bunch of tweaks to fit what I thought made sense. Up to you to pick and choose.

I'm not "publishing" this. I will answer questions about what I did, but I'm not making a bunch of changes to it. I'm sharing with you as an example of what you can do. Enjoy!!

I should note that this isn't quite 1.875.  the 1.4x multiplier puts it at 1.75m. I chose that because it "looked right" when stacked on a 1.875m stack with a fairing. If I put it right at 1.875m (1.5x size) then the fairing got really wide and it didn't look right. The SM changes were to make the fuel volume match the larger tank...then I had to up the engines a bit to push the heavier tank around...LOL...it made sense to me, but tweak it for your own game
