Firespitter propeller plane and helicopter parts v7.1 (May 5th) for KSP 1.0

[Iliketaco]

Audio is not working properly, just audio in right channel/ear with the prop engines.

Saw two others with same issue without any replies or solutions.

Then take off your headphones. That's the only way.

Sound issue work around.

Install Camera Tools. Hit "Home" key to enter cam tools view, then hit "End" key to return to normal view, and.... Stereo engine sounds.

As of this posting, a v1.2.1 compatible version of Camera Tools is stable here:

 

 

Haven't tried it myself but a lot of people have said it works. I also don't know why it works. Regardless, I'd suggest giving it a try and seeing how if it fixes the sound problem.

From my experience it works, but not quite right. Especially if you set it for one craft and switch to another.

[Brainpop14]

Is this plugin compatible with 1.2.1?

[Guest]

@Brainpop14 Did you check github?

I hate to ask the same question again, but the 'download plugin' link on Snjo's firespitter github landing doesn't have a date listed, and it always makes me skeptical as to whether or not it's the most recent download of the Firespitter plugin.

I mean this button:

This button is always up to date, all the time yes?

I have no idea.  But going in through the source link and poking around gets you the standard Github release page for Firespitter.

https://github.com/snjo/Firespitter/releases

I take that and split it into the Plugins directory and everything else and manage those as 2 separate mod in JSGME with everything else requiring the Plugins dir.

EDIT:  Seeing @kcs123's reply below reminds me, I include the Plugins and Resources directories together.  It was required for one of the mods I was looking at and I thought I should include it by default.

Short answer - yes. Long answer - plugin link leads to same file as you manualy go trough master branch files and subfolders.

https://github.com/snjo/Firespitter/tree/master/For release/Firespitter/Plugins

Keep in mind that some mods also require resources config file that will not be downloaded along with plugin only file.

With the release of 1.2.x, are there any plans to move the landing gear parts to the Ground category? Also, if possible, please remove the **LEGACY** parts. I know how to do it, but it's a PITA to do every time I install a new build, and they really clutter up the part catalog.

[RoverDude]

Eventually.  Priority is the plugin first, parts as I have time.  But I do take pull requests if someone wants to move some parts around (and/or remove the legacy ones).

Will you make a new froum thread?

Should I remove the Legacy parts and why? Where are them?

The legacy parts are biplane parts, but they show up later in the tech tree. The current biplane parts are available at the start. 

The config files can be found in /GameData/Firespitter/Parts/biPlane - look for "part.cfg" & delete those; there will be one in each subfolder.

So this does not remove the parts, just fixes the tech tree order in which parts appear? Still don't understand why shuold I do this. THanks though, I will do it I guess if you say I should...

[Bombaatu]

There are two copies of the biplane parts. One set shows up at the start; the other set shows up later in the tech tree & the part names start with "*** LEGACY ***". Removing the configs stops the duplication & cleans up the parts list.

[RoverDude]

Thought I had those moved out - will double check (the legacy ones)

[JediRangerkendor]

Not sure if anyone had ever pointed this out, but several parts would no longer work in 1.2, such as the fighter and fighter jet wings. Was this a glitch or a broken download on my part?

Roverdude barely have enough time to update plugin properly, that is dependency for a lot of other mods. Parts are low on priority list for fixing due to lack of free time. Some list of "broken" parts might help to sort out part pack, to remove those parts that is no longer possible to fix and put some info about others that can be fixed but are still broken due to lack of free time.

Also: stock white option for Bi-plane parts

I hate to be *That* guy still, but is the right audio only thing being worked on? the camera tools thing is pretty annoying to have to do every time I launch.

In reference to some posts that have been removed from this thread, please try to keep discussions on-topic

I'm having trouble setting up FSfuelSwitch and hoping someone can help.

If i set a texture on the panel i'm switching in unity that doesn't change when switching in ksp, if i don't set a texture on the panel i just get a white panel that doesn't change. I don't know whether i've set it up wrong in unity or in the config.

Unity Hierarchy

Textureswitch seems to be working, or at least controling fuelswtich

but no textures are applied.

Any ideas?
