Kavaeric Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) English - 中文 - 日本語 - Español - Française - Português - Pусский CryoEngines Extensions is a parts pack mod that adds 11 new Restock- and Near Future-alike methalox and hydrolox engines. Designed to integrate with Nertea’s popular CryoEngines mod, it aims to extend the range of vessel and mission design possibilities. Download (v1.0.4) Download from CKAN (recommended install method). Alternatively, manual download available via SpaceDock. Please ensure you understand all required dependencies and compatibilities prior to installation. My ability to help with bad or incorrect installs is limited. Restockalike Paradise 11 fictional engines lovingly crafted, textured, and balanced to match the look and feel of Restock and Near Future parts while injecting fresh new visual flavour. Multiple size mounts and brand-new “end-cap” sustainer engine mounts are the cherry on top. Methalox Roundup Design a mission from start to finish using methalox as the sole fuel source. New methane-powered sustainer engines balance atmospheric and vacuum performance for your upper stages, while low-profile and cost-effective orbital engines bring methane power to your vacuum landers. Vacuum Fiends The tiny 0.625m-size Yiqi and Hestia vacuum engines bring new cryogenic opportunities to even your smallest craft, while the Shikra and Owl find themselves in a niche previously occupied only by the likes of the Terrier and Poodle. Cryogenic Super-Lifters They’re expensive, run hot, and are barely controllable—but those who can tame these potent hydrolox lifters will find themselves in the company unmatched liquid bipropellant might.

Support & Thanks Special thanks to the modding community for helping me through my first modding journey, with a shoutout to @triple cheeseburger for testing, ongoing advice, and supplying some of the wonderful screenshots above—check out her Supplementary Electric Engines mod while you’re at it. Making models, texturing, testing, and balancing takes a lot of time and effort. Send a token of appreciation my way via Ko-Fi if you like what I do! FAQ Will you add a new part or variant that I want? There’s always a possibility I will want to adjust or expand more on this mod, but don’t hold your breath. As of right now I consider this mod feature complete. Does this mod support [X] mod that I have? Will you write a patch for it? Chances are it’s out of the scope of what I want to do with this as a straightforward parts mod that otherwise doesn’t include any new gameplay mechanics. You’ll probably have better luck talking to the owners of that mod instead. I make recreations of real-life spacecraft, is this mod right for me? Although I took visual inspiration from photo references, none of these engines are meant to be analogues, faithful or stylised, of any real-life counterparts. They are fictional creations from yours truly. I don’t like the look/balance/plumes of some of these parts! Not downloading or using this mod is free!

JoeSheridan Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Wow, thank for doing this, this just looks great IMO that´s the best thing regarding to Cryogenics since we got the methalox-expansion of the original mod. Thank you for doing this What a surprise. And again: I looks like KSP 1 beeing in it´s final version now is a motivator to work on new mods and rework older ones. Really: Thank you.

Ameoba Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Very cool, look forward to using it!

Kavaeric Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 Updated to version 1.0.1: Added French [fr-fr] translation, courtesy of Delta Varan. Somehow adding a translation has reduced the filesize by ~3MiB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevanX_LSR Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 i came here and downloaded the mods because i saw it got 455 downloads in like 3 days. I haven’t playtested it yet but i might play it in my stock/LSR saves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha_star Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Great mod! Will give it a try. Spoiler Can I use it without the original Cryogenic Engines mod? Would be great to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not tested it personally, but from what I understand it's what actually gives the resource definitions, not to mention a lot of the other dependencies that this mod shares with the original CryoEngines. Gameplay-wise the original will also feel more well rounded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blufor878 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Playing with these new engines. Awesome stuff! If I had one critique, it's that some of the engines seem mildly overpowered. But if that's the intent, I won't complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had one critique, it's that some of the engines seem mildly overpowered. But if that's the intent, I won't complain. Hope you are enjoying them! As for the balance, I imagine that those are for the "hydrolox super-lifters"—namely the Kunlun and the Aso. They're intentionally super-powerful but also incredibly expensive and cost-ineffective. If you are playing on career with CTT they take a lot to get to (near the end of the rocketry tech branch) and are on tech par with some pretty nutty nuclear engines at that point. I may look to adjusting their balance in future but right now I think the fact they're just so hard to reach in career makes them okay right now.

Tangle Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 I've seen your other art, and loved it- this, too, is fantastic. Nicely done- you've gotten me to consider playing KSP again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderiumSmith Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 The Hestia is very useful as the hecate is much too big for probes. What is it based on? And what is that tank with 6 long tanks with foil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what is that tank with 6 long tanks with foil? Like all of these engines, it's an entirely fictional design. As for the tank, assuming you're talking about one of the screenshots in the OP, I think it's one of the multipurpose fuel tanks from Near Future Exploration?
