[0.16] KW Rocketry v0.5

[Mogadishu]

Can you post a download for the .15 compatable one? The .16 engines do not work in .15.

I left it in the OP, it\'s got a strike through it, i\'ll sort it all out when Winston gets back and I can actively edit the OP instead of going through Nova to do it.

Where\'s Winston?

Where\'s Winston?

Holiday or something, I don\'t know.

Am I the only one having serious issues with this mod in .16?

All the parts wobble like hell and my rocket ends up wobbling like a flying rubber chicken

[Neighbor98]

No, not even mech jeb can fly rockets built with these parts. The main problem I\'m having is the rolling druing the gravity turn, it gets out of control and I have to restart. :\'(

Please add a [0.16] tag to the front of the mods post title. We\'re trying to get some standardization going here with [KSPver#] ModName [MODver#].

Thanks!

Lol the Rocket always explode..

[jazzviper1]

I have down loaded every thing and can.t assemble the Ceres space craft.

I have the latest version of KSP .16.

Cant use any pre made ships either.

the heat shield wants to go up inside the CM.

The very top piece won\'t attatch.

Please Help.

The URL linked to for the low-res version is not the URL that is shown in the post; it goes to the MediaFire .rar file instead of the .zip as described.

while normally I relish launching difficult rockets, the latest version of this is just insane; Even with MechJeb, and a boatload of RCS, 90% of the time I end up catastrophically flipping when I make turnover to circularize my orbit.

Plus Ceres is too tiny now, what with the upscaled command pods and stuff.

Same with me.

Same with me...either its the rubber chicken thing or it flips like Lazurkri said....

Unfortunately, this mod is pretty well unusable at the moment as all the parts have 'extreme' wobble.

Is the author of the mod working on a fix?

[semininja]

In my experience, there\'s very little wobble in reasonably-sized rockets, and even then, it\'s correctable with a few struts at the interstage fairings...

You and I, have a varying definition of unusable.

As far as rolling goes, it\'s generally the result of how KSP distillates force along struts and various connections, something we seldom have control over, keeping your rockets balanced is usually the ticket. Other than that, general stability is acheived by struting things.

We\'re planning on resizing it at some point, so bare with.

Here\'s some pictures of the stuff I use to get things to the moon, so usually orbit is easy enough.

This was a heavy lifting rocket

This was another heavy lifting rocket

This was a fairly light lifter

I really love this pack. I use a somewhat small design that is able to take payloads anywhere, be it Kerbin orbit, Mun orbit, Minmus orbit, or Kerbol orbit.

[Kickasskyle]

We just fixed the Ceres MPCV and it works with 0.16.

It\'s bigger, and works as it should.

At the moment the EVA function on it doesn\'t work.

I think my previous post on the subject may have been lost, but could you put up .zip versions again? The link to the .zip of the main pack has been changed; it points at a .rar file now. It\'d be great to have this mod featured by the KSPMM, and all you need is the .zip and the info.txt file in it.

[Budgie]

Thanks for updating the Ceres, my favorite pod mod around on the forums. Looks cool, and works well too..

If i may make one suggestion, could you guys make some fairings in the size of the top part of the Ceres, so we can cover up the panels and engines on the way up, and then an adaptor for 2m or 1.75m? This would make it look more aesthetically pleasing, i think.

Otherwise, great work!

[Kickasskyle]

I sized it so it fits inside the larger 2m payload fairings., as shown.

[Budgie]

Huh.. I guess i didnt try out that combination. Thanks!

[Synthesis]

Hurray! Resized Ceres module! Now that is a serious command module. Sometimes, Kerbals want to do better than washing machines and duct tape.

Now all we need is EVA...

Here it is in zip format:

I kinda glazed over writing the text files because I just woke up, my bad. I might do it later today.

At the moment i\'m uploading the Low Res version as well.

The link above should work for you.

~snip~

Thanks! It worked perfectly. Could someone also upload the payload fairings and Ceres for me too? Sorry for the inconvenience. China does NOT like mediafire Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Ceres works now, so just the fairings please. Thanks again!

Ceres apparantly works now.

[ddavis425]

I'm having a hard time with the RCS on the Ceres, it seems hardly effective with the upscaled size.
