Centaur's already incredible. They were trying to fix something that wasn't broken in the first place.

I'm sure some people said that about stone hammers in the stone age too.

support of tweak scale and   update 1.12.3

Why? It should work in 1.12.3 because it is only a parts mod. And TweakScale: you can easily write a little patch for yourself. I think there is no need for Tweakscale.

Welcome to the forum @Andrewson, while it's not against the rules to request and update, provided it is polite and not repetitive, please remember that members who create great free content for us to enjoy are also subject to real world responsibilities so it's best to be patient as we wait for our favourite mods to be updated.

I'm trying to load just any of the craft files but every time I try to load the file it says that I'm missing the part "FuelCell.ACES". I checked the files and it was there so I'm not sure what is wrong.

Hi! 

Your request was registered here: https://github.com/net-lisias-ksp/TweakScaleCompanion/issues/21 . I can't say when I will be able to tackle it down, but I have a development Window somewhere in the next weeks and then I hope I will be able to work on it.

On a side note, I usually respond way faster  when requests are made on the TweakScale Companion or even on TweakScale itself. 

Cheers!

Nice finds, thanks!

1- Will make BDB compatible ones.

2- Done*

3- See below **

4- Interesting, gotta find a way to disable the auto interestage and enable that node.

5- S.M.A.R.T. assembly is tricky, that could be a way, yes.

6- Fixed*

7- Oops! fixed*

* Will be up on next revision

** The ACES and Centaur V upper stages were designed to be controlled by a remote guidance unit (no BDB) or by the Centaur avionics control system.

 

What mod is that X-38/Dream chaser?

Does it work with waterfall or only real plume?

Also do I just put the extras in the hephaistos folder?

Can you elaborate? sorry, installed BDB and now i get bluedog.Centaur.rl10.lv2 part missing error. thanks

I've got the same error, using JNSQ with a bunch of other mods including BDB. So annoying that's the only small thing preventing the ready made craft from loading but I've got tons of hydrolox engines and RL10 replicas to choose from and build my own with the rest of hephaistos parts

Hopefully one day this will be brought back to life.

Ill check it out thanks. I looked around for one but did not see it.  Also added support for it real quick on my VABO support mod on the 1.2 build.

I think Bread morphed into KODS, so the Vulcan is here now, along with some other goodies like Electron/Terran/Astra ...

edit: I wanted to add that this mod (Hephaistos) still works perfectly well also

The scaling of BREAD in KODS is even more unique, at least with this one it has compatibility with bdb due to the 3.125m Diameter

Whats the scaling difference? 

[BSS_Snag]

@SheepDog2142 Hephestios uses 3.125m but BREAD uses 3.5m 
https://github.com/nolifejordan/Kiwi-Orbital-Designs-Systems/issues/8

Bread is technically the better conversion in size, but does add another size part into the mix

reworded after more research

Tweakscale will have to save the day then.

Its up to you, Hephestios has the better textures at the moment and the balancing seems a little better with its reduced size, the TWR works out to be a bit more reasonable as well.

I couldn't get any of the colored textures to work with Hephestios. It seemed to only have the orange for me.

They are in the Extras-Folder. Put this Extras-Folder into GameData/Hephaistos. The put the TankSwitch.cfg somewhere into GameData.

This one also has the engine recovery parts, if that's of interest.  We can dream, right?
