spiritplumber Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I just recompiled KAS myself for 0.24, and it -appears- to be working perfectly fine. (Linux, 64-bit). YMMV(EDIT: NB: I didn't change any source code apart from the version check.)Can you share that for those of us who dont have a compiler handy? Thanks!

taniwha Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 spiritplumber: I believe the license forbids it, and micha posting the like on the forums could get him in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agathorn Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Can you share that for those of us who dont have a compiler handy? Thanks!No. The license doesn't allow it. You can grab the source yourself and compile it, but you can't release that to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiritplumber Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Apparently not. Not terribly sure what purpose that serves, but that's what the guy who made the plugin wants, so it's his call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigNose Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) I just recompiled KAS myself for 0.24, and it -appears- to be working perfectly fine. (Linux, 64-bit). YMMV(EDIT: NB: I didn't change any source code apart from the version check.)Did the same thing, just changing the version check to 0.24 in the source code and compiling the .dll myself using Xamarin Studio.I'm running KSPx64 on Win7x64, and I must say it runs surprisingly well. After an hour of testing I had no crashes (not even spamming of errors in the logs), and these are the only problems I found:1.) Ejecting hooks from winches just releases the hook, due to the KSP 0.24 x64 inherent missing-decoupler-force-bug (not KAS fault).2.) Grabbing big/heavy parts (like the ground pylon or full containers) off of other parts can sometimes cause a force to be applied on the part which the grapped part was attached to. Small parts maybe also cause those forces, but they are too small to cause problems (at least in my tests).And that's it. Except those two glitches everything works, connecting vessels together with pipes/winches for refueling still works perfectly fine, which is good enough for me (at least so far).Sadly, serbians x64 decoupler fix doesn't work in this case, because his module manager file of course is unable to change how the KASModuleWinch works in the KAS.dll. Maybe I can fix that myself in the source code, I'll try that tomorrow.Regarding the phantom forces when grabbing parts, no idea how to fix that. I'm counting on Majir for this one!

Patrick Kerbivan Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Just to clarify, is running the currently-downloadable version of the mod still going to function (aside from the caveats BigNose mentions above) and just require you to dismiss the version incompatibility warning, or will KSP choose not to load/activate any KAS functionality because of the bad version tag?

rabidninjawombat Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Patrick, it does work on x64 (with the caveats BigNose mentioned) just loaded it up and tested around, Like he said, just be careful, there is a bug with the grab function that seems to make things go boom =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holyvision Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 So essentially what this means, is that someone now has the right to "mod the mod" in order to make it work for .24, and upload the fix?

Just until an official fix is released? Am I understanding this correctly?My interpretation is that it is actually fine as-is, but simply needed to be rebuilt to be compatible with 0.24... But the license granted no permission to distribute derived (which is what a version-updated copy would be) works. Majiir is simply temporarily granting the public the ability to distribute this derived work so that those who are less tech-savvy can use it, and not just those who know how to compile a visual studio project.

PringleMan Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 The recompiled plugin did not fix the grab-explosion problem. I made a test rig with a mk 2 lander can, some landing legs, a structural strut sticking out underneath, some bays, and some part containers. As before, releasing the part container is fine, and it can be stored back into the bay fine. However clicking grab, as before, caused rapid unplanned disassembly.tested win 7 KSP x64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
