Overlocker96 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 (edited) YES! Finally! I wanted a mod like this for years! Since I used Nertea's suite instead of KW Rocketry, I always feel that something was missing with the lack of Sepatron variants. And more using mods like Engine Ignitor, when Ullage is VERY important! Some feedback on testing: - First the nozzle of all of the SRB appears like too shiny, I don't know if its a bug or a feature. - Second, I recommend changing the name of the "White" variant to something like "Bare" so people know that the Sepatron II has a variant with the same design as the original one. - Also, there's some plan to use Waterfall? I have seen some configs for Real Plumes. Maybe adding a config in the RSMP pack is better for this? Apart from that great mod and I love your work!

theJesuit Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Awesome work! I was just looking at separtons the other day. Thanks! I'll add them into mg various tech trees soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll respond point by point: That's definitely intentional, unless something's gone very wrong. I based the texturing off of the palette & style of ReStock, which has some shine on the Sepratron I's nozzle. It shouldn't be too excessive though; if it's like, chrome-plated-looking or something, then toss a screenshot over and I'll see if I can figure out what's going on. Bit confused as to what you mean here? The "white" variant on all the parts is the white aero shroud, and there's a "bare" version for the II and 8-1 that has no shroud (the I-B's "bare" version is just the stock part); which one are you saying should be labeled what? I'd love to use Waterfall for plume effects! Sadly, last I looked into it, the consensus was that it didn't really work well for SRB plumes, since they've got a lot of particulate material in them & end up being very opaque, which Waterfall doesn't support very well. I'd be happy to be wrong about that though! Glad you enjoy! ^.=.^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overlocker96 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 (edited) Ok, I think I've found the issue, I didn't have the ModuleDepthMask mod installed because ReStock uses a custom one and I didn't think it needed it Spoiler https://imgur.com/a/40wIzPF On the second one, I think I mixed the Sepatron I-B with the Sepatron II, sorry, my bad And the Waterfall part I think the configs from RSMP are actually pretty good and doesn't have that issue with the opaque material, you can try those configs from the Vanilla Sepatrons onto your Sepatrons.

Also, what does RSMP refer to? Not an acronym I recognize ^^; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and I think it easy to make, like this: Spoiler MODULE { name = ModuleRestockDepthMask maskTransform = DepthMask } So its only changing the Module name Also RSMP configs for the sepatron are easy to use for the new sepatrons, and you can link to the RSMP project or maybe to Restock Waterfall Expansion that also has the same SRB configs on the latest version.

Dalk Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Fair enough, I was able to get some configs together after all so let me know if you end up needing 'em. The sep8-1 and sepIB were pretty easy to get working but I did run into some problems with the sepII and had to settle with a solution that is less elegant than I would prefer due to the two different ModuleDepthMask instances for the two different maskTransforms. Great mod by the way, definitely going to be making avid use of it in a JNSQ playthrough that is in the planning stages! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
