1096bimu Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) A 1:1 replica of the F-1 engines used on the Saturn V moon rockets. It has the same realistic size, weight thrust and ISP and probably a bit OP for Kerbals.It is highly detailed (custom low-poly mesh) with lots of textures, smoke and even lights for added effect. Not suitable for regular laptop users.Version 1.2:download:https://www.dropbox.com/s/mbpvm45vwb516o5/F1%20Rocket%20Engine%201.2.7zOld version (uses less memory):Old version (uses less memory):https://www.dropbox.com/s/1lsavx5kapb6phs/F-1%20Rocket%20Motor.7zMod edit:I contents including mesh, texture and config file created by 1096bimuall permissions granted, do whatever you want with it.too lazy to upload to Spaceport since it can't feature any images and stuff, someone please do it for me.

Guest Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Is that 100% scale, or 64% scale? The latter is more "correct" for a Kerbalized engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stupid_chris Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 That seems like a 100% scaled engine, I believe it's also the intent, just as for nyrath's Orion. Anyway, awesome job, that engine looks awesome I guess it'S about the size of 3.75m tanks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devo Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 nice! mind if I ask where you got the mesh from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberion Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Mmm, beefy.Looks like its a 2.5m engine to me, unless its just weird perspective in the screenshot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Mmm, beefy.Looks like its a 2.5m engine to me, unless its just weird perspective in the screenshot.Yeah, it should fit 2.5m mounts. Speaking of which, could you give us back the 5x2.5m mount from NP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of which, could you give us back the 5x2.5m mount from NP?I am planning to make a mount, but since this is realistic size, and the real Saturn V is 10m in diameter, it won't be a 5x2.5, more like 5x4m or 5x3.75m mount.

Guest Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 If so, go for a 6.25m or 6.4m mount. And scale the engine down a bit (to 64%). A properly scaled Saturn V would be about that size in KSP. Keep in mind, there are no fuel tanks that big (at least since NP scaled down...), you'd have to use procedural ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krashkart Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 It does fit 2.5m parts, but it looks best on 5m parts. Very well done, btw. Looks beautiful and still runs great on this outdated workhorse computer. I rarely put anything into orbit that weighs more than 15-20 tons, and after running a couple of quick test flights earlier today I think the F-1 may be able to power an SSTO capable of lifting same. Will have to do some more testing once I reinstall the 5m LFTs from whichever addon they are in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1096bimu Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 It's purty. How did you get the exhaust fx looking like that? 9 additional virtual thrust points, throttle back to see what I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
