====================================================================================================================

Restock Waterfall Effects 3.1.0 by AtomicTech based off of Stock Waterfall Effects by Knight of St. John and Waterfall Restock by Nertea.

====================================================================================================================

Restock Waterfall Effects contains a set of template and engine configuration files, that gives Knight of St. John's awesome waterfall effects to the stock engines.

This is a config mod and does nothing by itself and is built from Knight of St. John's Stock Waterfall Effects, Nertea's Waterfall Restock, and Jet Sounds Continued. You need to install the dependency mods for it to work.

Very nice! So is this an extension of the current Waterfall Restock? Edit: "Restock Waterfall Expansion" suppose so. Lol!

Looks like this covers the gaps in Waterfall Restock (like the stock jet engines).

@AtomicTech  Thanks for making this. You also did some engines already covered by Waterfall Restock. What did you do differently?

It does require Waterfall Restock :)

Which engines specifically? I can't think of any, although it might just be my sleep-deprived brain. 

It might've just been that I didn't like the Waterfall Restock version and instead loved @Knight of St John's plume(s)!

@AtomicTech I know the Swivel and Reliant were already covered by Waterfall Restock, but there's nothing wrong with overwriting them, of course.

Well its worth removing the Waterfall effects for those engines, with Module Manager, first if you are replacing them, otherwise there could be two lots of engine plume sets rendering at the same time.

They are!?

Heck, I must've missed that!

I’m the silliest man alive, I didn’t include restock waterfall. I only used this this expansion, which is incredible by the way, all by itself. If I had only looked at the freaking instructions. Silly me :P. Nice job on the update by the way Atomic. Got to use it, it works terrific!

What additions does this mod have for someone switching from a pared-down Stock Waterfall Effects install? I have Restock and its waterfall effects already- does this just repackage those same plumes I already have?

You should be fine with either :)

I built RWE as a skimmed down version of SWE that would allow me to add new propellant plumes to certain engines from the SWE plume library.

Hey folks, I've got a bit of bad but not unexpected news.

As I'm sure we all know, KSP 2 is right around the corner. I've noticed this pattern with a whole lot of other developers that they've been either moving to KSP 2 or cancelling projects because KSP 2 will already include what they've been working on.

Unfortunately and yet fortunately, KSP 2 will replace both the need for Restock and Waterfall. My project is therefore left happily without a reason to continue. This does mean that RWE 0.4.0 will never be released, but that's alright! (It's currently a very buggy mess :wink:

Thanks for all the support folks! Without y'all, I never would've or could've started digging into KSP's .cfg files and so for that I'm very grateful.

I'd like to give one last thanks to @ColdJ, @Snark, @adsii1970, @Caerfinon, @zer0Kerbal, @linuxgurugamer, @HebaruSan, @Staticalliam7, @Knight of St John, and to anyone else who's helped me on my modding path. You guys rock!

So then, 

So long and thanks for all the fish, Kerbal Space Program .

Thank you so much for bringing more enjoyment to KSP.

As are others, I am not doing much new development on KSP, so fully understand where you are coming from.

Well y'all, it's been a while!

As I'm sure y'all know, RWE 0.4.0 was cancelled around two months ago but I've got a bit of a surprise for y'all!

Drum roll please! (Open the spoilers when ready :)

A new thumbnail art for Restock Waterfall Expansion!

Pretty cool right?

Also....

Spoiler

Apparently, Restock Waterfall Expansion 2.0.0 (New Age, Old Thing) is available now on SpaceDock.

I'm not quite sure how it got there... ;)

Spoiler

Be sure to remove your prexisting RestockWaterfallExpanion, WaterfallRestock, and StockWaterfallEffects folders to prepare for the update!

Awesome mod @AtomicTech; I would like to thank you for your efforts

 

I have just discovered it this week, while updating my mods, and for what I have tested, Waterfall Expansion even improves the performance on my Kerbal modded installation (vs Restock Waterfall & Stock Waterfall effects previously installed)

 

I have only found a little visual glitch with Terrier engines waterfall effect (not at home right now, so I'll update this post later with pics).  I would look into cfgs and compare with Restock Waterfall, cause I didn't notice it before installing your mod

 

Anyway, thanks again for your work, and sorry for my possible grammar mistakes (english is not my first language...)

 

Edit: Forget about it; just checked and Restock Waterfall and Waterfall Expansion have the exactly the same cfg for that engine. The cause its TUFX Temporal Antialiasing

It's all good, no worries

I'm quite happy that this mod makes playing KSP noticably better for you :)

Originally when I started this mod, it was partially an accident because I hodge-podged my pull requests for Stock Waterfall Expansion with an accidentally outdated Waterfall Restock, but when it started to come into it's own, I decided that I'd share my creation with the world and so it makes me quite happy to see that I'm not the only one who enjoys this! :grin:
