  • Has a stock crossfeed switcher
  • Integrated decoupler
  • Aeroynamic nosecap to close the ends or make a boat

Installation Directions 1

Spoiler

Use CurseForge/OverWolf App (currently does not install dependencies)

CurseForge/OverWolf App

I take no part, nor am I interested in maintaining the CKAN mod metadata for my mods. CKAN is a great mod for those that can't use zip tools. If you are having issues please let the CKAN people know and refer to the CKAN thread. My support of CKAN extends as far as me checking the checkbox in Spacedock when I upload. Beware, CKAN can really mess up though it tries very, very, very hard not to.

CurseForge should have the listing/upload approved in the next 12-36 hours - it's their weekend (European based). Once it is approved it will propagate in minutes throughout their network and app. I was in a rush to push out the new listing.

CurseForge/Overwolf has been very good at rapidly approving listings and uploads for me as a whole; just occasionally I forget it's their weekend and they might be a tad bit slower in responding.

Quote

This is a new project. Until approved by a moderator, the project will not be visible to others, and its files will not synchronize across CurseForge.

I will ask the very effecient and much appreciated moderators to move this thread to Add-on Releases when CurseForge has approved the listing, release.

is it updated already ? or do we need to wait with downloading???? a litte confused here :confused:

also; do you want me to do the Dutch translation?

@renejantIt is - just see above.

Yes please.

Here is the link to the <en-us.cfg> from which to translate. Do not have to do any of the individual part's tags (just the #DROP-tags string) because those strings are being removed and replaced with strings from Squad's internal dictionary. A GitHub PR into either '1.0.99.0-adoption'  or  '1.0.99.1-prerelease' branch would be appreciated.

I am now working on the next `Kerbal Hacks` release which might interest you as well. Several more to go as @Enceos has been wonderful in cooperating with my adoptions.

i would love to see a mk2 version that fits on the mk2 fuselage

@BGYT

I would love to see that - am just not a modeler/graphic design artist - if a model/texture (even if it uses KSP's internal textures from mk1 parts) would be appreciated via PR push. Mk2, Mk3, Mk4, Mk5 as well.

Currently am planning on releasing 0.625m, 1.25m, 1.875m, 3.75m, and maybe even 5.0m version (without need for TweakScale) in upcoming releases.

This mod is one I've used pretty extensively for its entire lifetime.  Nowadays, the only thing holding me back from using it is the fact that these parts don't have TURD support and are not recolorable.  So I decided to fix that.

I've created a patch that enables Bob Ross Recoloring for this mod, all you need is the mod itself and TexturesUnlimited

Here's a download link for any interested parties:
