space_powder Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) Do you think it's possible to make a bulky life support unit backpack as a wearable prop? Something à la the Apollo PLSS, with holes for the regular EVA backpacks thrusters? I can't imagine going on EVA's without this mod now, it's so great! EDIT: should've read future plans, apologies Edited April 24, 2021 by space_powder i read the thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Hunt Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 This mod is awesome, but is there any way to make it so that if the Kerbals debark on Kerbin they wear their IVA suits? IIRC, TR does that, but I think it only works if you enable personalized suits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Pickle Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Is there a way to to equip a prop while in IVA, such as the "Advanced crew escape helmet"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Hunt Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Ok, I noticed a small bug, although this could be in the base game, suit models do not persist after reloading, when you return to an existing craft, or choose a kerbal who's suit you changed on a previous mission, they will appear in the default suit model instead of the chosen suit. https://www.dropbox.com/s/4z0fmweoot9jtis/KSP copy.log?dl=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Because the models only fit specifically with one of the stock suit models - for example, the EMU headpiece would appear to be floating or clip into the making history or breaking ground suits.

Expand best I can figure it was somehow being caused by having both these suits and @-ctn-'s suits installed at the same time. I removed the phoenix suits and recovered the affected kerbals, and haven't seen it since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emilius73 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I just realized that what seems to be the SOCK Buran is in the background of the promo shot for the Russian suits... looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fundati Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I've attempted to use this mod with Texture Replacer. I'm not sure if they conflict but the suit models are always messed up. Is it known that there's a conflict between the two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand From page 1: Quote COMPATABILITY Historical Kerbal Suits REQUIRES KSP version 1.10 or later, but wearable props will only function with 1.11+ as they require the revised inventory system. If also using Texture Replacer, you MUST turn off 'PERSONALISE SUITS' in the Texture Replacer settings in the Space Center menu, or personalised suits will not display correctly. Two of the included suits, the Apollo & Sokol suits, are also bundled with Bluedog Design Bureau and Tantares respectively. To avoid duplicated suits in the astronaut complex, you can remove the appropriate 'Suits' folder from any of the three mods. Expand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Hmm - and the other suits from the mod (which use the default suit as a base) appear correctly? TextureReplacer shouldn't do anything to the suit picker screen, though you should make sure you have 'personalise suits' turned off in the settings or TextureReplacer will try to override the replacement textures resulting in messed up textures. Could I ask for a screenshot showing the problem, along with your KSP.log file, a screenshot of GameData folder & what KSP version you are running?
