Is there a way to disable the OrionSM auto-fairing? Cant find it in the cfg.

Is there a way to disable the OrionSM auto-fairing? Cant find it in the cfg.

Do you by any chance have Sumghai's Service Module Pack? This is exactly how he does the engine for the pack. It's just one of squad's engines without the fairings. The easiest way to do this is find in the .cfg where it says

node_stack_top = 0.0, 1.124637, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0,2
node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -1.838068, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0,2

and add the line:

node_stack_top = 0.0, 1.124637, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0,2
node_stack_hidefairing = 0.0, -1.838067, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0,2
node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -1.838068, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0,2

Then down under the modules, edit the ModuleJettison's to say

MODULE
{
       name = ModuleJettison
       jettisonName = Orion1_shroud
       bottomNodeName = hidefairing
       isFairing = False
       jettisonedObjectMass = 0.01
       jettisonForce = .00001
       jettisonDirection = 0 -1 1

}

MODULE
{
       name = ModuleJettison
       jettisonName = Orion2_shroud
       bottomNodeName = hidefairing
       isFairing = False
       jettisonedObjectMass = 0.01
       jettisonForce = .00001
       jettisonDirection = 0 -1 -1

}

If you do have Sumghai's service module system, take a look at his config if you need an example

Hi all.

This a new update Soviet pack.

And now we make different "addon pack" for each craft family.

In first time im update Soyuz ship, named "Soyuz 2.0"

For correct work you need last version plugins

FAR

Deadly reentry

ASMI life Support

This beta version, have bugs and balance problems

Parts

Soyuz TMA

Progress M

Soyuz U

Good testing my friends , and soon im make "Neptune panel" tutorial ))

[Virtualgenius]

Will there be a version that doesnt rely on those plugins as I dont use any of them but love the soviet pack

[Green Skull]

AWESOME!!! My Russian Kosmonauts thank you!

[Motokid600]

Thanks RazGriz ill give that a go. Bobcat is DRE required in some way? That plugin is broken to high hell for me. The reentry effects skip and break up horribly. Was back and forth with Starwaster for a week trying to fix it with no luck sadly.

Also, good to see you around again!

[Natashjy]

The way plugins work mean you don't need any of them to use the part, but they add functionality. You can use Soviet pack without the plugins, but if you do you miss out on the features those plugins add.

[Cdodders]

Nobody move!!!! I've dropped me jaw!!!

[Virtualgenius]

The 1st stage boosters oxidiser amount needs to be adjusted to 1222.22 or mechjeb cant auto stage them

[BobCat]

Need make many balance change. Yes.

[Green Skull]

The file structure and some names are different in Soyuz version 2.0 download. It is confusing

Edited March 31, 2014 by Green Skull

[BobCat]

Pack have new file structure yes.

I think the file structure changes more than once until the game reaches version 1.0

[Green Skull]

I have soviet pack 2.0.6 the one in the front page. The file structure and names are different in soyuz 2.0. I don't know which file to put in which folder.

[Guest]

I just tested it, and I have to say, it's really awesome. OK, on to bugfixing.

1). For some reason, the engine cap on the Soyuz ISM doesn't open.

2). Progress OM, when moused over, expands infinitely in VAB. That's an easy fix, IIRC.

3). Soyuz booster is missing a vernier.

Also, I've got one request. Could you please make all the Soyuz verniers separate parts compatible with this plugin: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/55985 ?

It'd really, really enhance Soyuz flying experience. You could finally make them work like in RL with this plugin, just check it out.

Also, if you ever plan on remaking Proton and Energia, also remember that using this mod allows you to have roll control on any multi-engined rocket, just like in real life. You just have to have engines as separate parts, that's all.

[roscosmos]

I had a quick test but Dragon's pretty much mentioned everything. the Neptune panel was missing but I assume that's because its not finished? Also its a shame the good looking hatch from the LOK wasn't used in the IVA but never mind.

Other than that Its looks great, now I need to get MIR built

[NathanKell]

BobCat: hurrah! Can't wait to try this out.

It should work without the plugins, you might have to remove a resource called something with ablative from the cfg of the soyuz pod, though, for it to work correctly without deadly reentry.

Oh, and YAAAAY! It's released!

Nope, it was missing because you installed it wrong. It's out there, just double-check if you've got the folders in the right place.

[BobCat]

Yes, for this need make small plugin.

2). Progress OM, when moused over, expands infinitely in VAB. That's an easy fix, IIRC.

Shold be work fine.

3). Soyuz booster is missing a vernier.

If squad fix wooble node points.

Im change hatch model soon.

Neptune panel already work.

If dont use DRE , Soyuz not change "burned" texture.

[roscosmos]

i'll have a folder shuffle and see if it turns up. Great news on the hatch bobcat, also is the far plugin so the Soyuz command module can have a controlled descent?

[BobCat]

Soyuz command module can have a controlled descent?

Yes, look "change descent mode" action switch.

[Guest]

Why wait for Squad? Ferram did that already. Works wonders on all wobbly ships, including N1, which you can launch without a single strut.

http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/55657-0-23-Kerbal-Joint-Reinforcement-v2-1-3-7-14

You can use that until ARM/0.24 comes out with improved joints.

[BobCat]

Dragon01

I use it, but it will not solve all problems.

[Guest]

Could you at least try? Sure, KJR doesn't solve all problems, but it's an experimental release. You can include working verniers, then revert if they prove too wobbly. I think that KJR will be good enough for now, and soon we will have better joints that Squad promised for 0.24. The trick it to leave the main engine attached to the fuel tank if there's a single one, and to connect stages without attaching stuff under any engines. It's a bit tricky, but the layout of your rockets lends itself to that.
