Here are some screenshots from the EARLIEST version of KSP!

We should add a mod that readds the parts from 0.1-0.4

Last time I read that it had old images.

I kinda like the old interface

I actually really like this gradient on the orbit.

Why did they remove it?

If my memory serves me right, that gradient on the orbit dissappeared when we got the patched conics (the thing that shows you SoI changes and so on).

Guess it didn't work too well with several different colour gradients or something.

I remember missing that feature when it first dissappeared, since it made it slightly easier to see how circular your orbit was, but it passed. The system we have now is much better imo.

On the origins of Jebediah Kerman's name, i think i found the the first piece of the puzzle.

Bump.

I'm not sure if i got this image in the main post.

There's actually a 0.0 version, and 0.7.3 is the earliest version available to the public.

I hopped in shortly after the Mun did, so missed a fair amount of the fun of early KSP. I never do tire of this fails video I found. The guy is a hoot. http://youtu.be/89uUHKwINxs

That's one of the default "water" shaders in Unity. It actually looks amazingly fake since it's absurdly reflective and doesn't have a very good shore recognition algorithm. It's also quite the FPS killer. We had that for the water texture for some time, actually; it survived right on up to (and possibly slightly into) the pay-to-play version.

Yep, that shader was still in use when the game went premium. 0.14, it was. It got removed afterward in 0.14.2, when they rebuilt the terrain engine. That was pre0.18 Kerbin, before we got the more distinctive biomes and the giant crater.

I think I started playing right at the tail end of .16, I remember loading up the game a couple weeks later and wondering why I hadn't noticed all the planets before. Also, I hated that launch tower.

Oh, I remember seeing these back in 2013, ah good times

[Ikaneko]

No, release was 0.7.3. 0.1 KSP was experimental.

Later on I'm planning on adding a Nausea Tolerance parameter to their AI, and have them become nauseated under high angular velocities and possibly space sick as well, when under microgravity conditions... They could visually turn green also, if they weren't green already.... hmm, maybe they should turn yellow :-).

Wait, what??? WHY IS THIS NOT PART OF KSP YET??? Forget contracts, I want hurling Kerbals!

Wow, taking a look at my imageshack account I've found some really old pictures...

never seen Kerbin look like that before. So I've gotta ask, how was the geography of the planet created? It looks very believable, but surely someone didn't sit there "hand drawing" the world? And was the resemblance to Africa deliberate? In-joke? Social statement?

This would be stupid to add. It's artificial difficulty at it's best. We're here to make and fly rockets,spaceplanes, etc., not nurse astronauts that shouldn't be contracted due to low tolerance to motion sickness and the likes of it.

Procedural terrain generation. Forgot the name of the software used.
