[1.1.x] CoolRockets! Cryo and Launch Particle FX

[Olympic1]

Yes and quite nicely.

good to know

I'm not sure if it is a know bug, but there is an issue where engines have a fairing/shroud on at all times. After some help from Reddit it was identified that the problem came from CoolRockets. Simply removing the "CoolRockets" folder from gamedata fixed the problem.

Here is the problem I was experiencing:

Mod versions:

Klockheed_Martian_CoolRockets_2.0.1.zip

Klockheed_Martian_2.0.1.zip

Other mods that I had installed:

Having the same problem. Any ideas?

KW configs aren't working in 24.2 yet - I'm willing to update them myself but AFAIK the engine part names and sizes haven't changed at all AFAIK. Im not sure what to change to make them work (or maybe they're only broken for me?)

It's just because the CoolRockets folder was moved. I updated Dodecadevin's config based on ObsessedWithKSP's. Seems to work, though not sure if parts that were added lately are missing entries. I popped it into my Dropbox here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8vgceix8fzeh0xm/KWR_CR.cfg

Does anyone have a cfg file for the KSO main engine(s) and tanks? I'm trying to add this effect to those engines but am having difficulty...

I am having the shroud over the engine problem too. Can't use the regular rockets because the shrouds block them even on the launchpad.

I actually have a smaller list, trying to minimize memory problems but not alter the gameplay too much from vanilla.

The only way I've been able to correct the issue is to stop the use of Cool Rockets.... but... but... *whimper* They're sooooo COOOL!

I'd really like to figure this out. Anyone have any answers?

[SuperV]

I've Tried everything to get this to work with no luck. Installed are all the prerequisites for KSPRC and it also of course. I've tried dropping the tng's. I can't tell you the combo's I've tried. between CoolRockets and KSPRC. I haven't read the whole Thread, I can't be that dumb. Stop laughing. Any ideas.

[Shurikeeen]

I don't understand the installation Can someone explain it to me? Im trying to install CoolRockets mod and I downloaded both "Klockheed_Martian" and "Klockheed_Martian_CoolRockets" and do I put "Klockheed_Martian_CoolRockets" in "Klockheed_Martian" folder or do I need to have "Klockheed_Martian" and "Klockheed_Martian_CoolRockets" in GameData as different folders?

[Guest]

Yes, you do.

[Gaalidas]

Yes, you do.

To be less vague (shame on you, you silly person, using a yes/no answer for an either/or question) the second option you specified is what you want.

On to another topic... what I find a bit irritating is that half way through a play session, the particles seem to stop working. I can tell it to show in the editor, but nothing happens.

Any chance the author can roll all the working configs into a single download please

To clarify ... You need to have separate folders for all the Klockheed_Martin products. If you have a complete install you should see this tree:

~/GameData/Klockheed_Martian

~/GameData/Klockheed_Martian_Asteroid

~/GameData/Klockheed_Martian_CoolRockets

~/GameData/Klockheed_Martian_SmartParts

~/GameData/Klockheed_Martian_Special

~/GameData/Klockheed_Martian_SSE

[Splinteredmind]

I am also getting the "permanent engine fairings" bug. I am using :

B9, Chatterer, Distant Object Enhancement, DMagic Oribital Science, Environmental Visual Enhancements, Hotrockets, KAS, Kethane, Procedual Fairings, RCS Sounds and Lights, Scansat, Soundtrack Editor, Spaceplane Plus, TAC Fuel balancer, Mechjeb, Texture Replacer, Universal Storage, Active Texture Management and KSPRC.

[Gaalidas]

Little update on my issue with the particles not showing up in the editor anymore... turns out if I scale up the hangar with that hangar scaling mod, and move the camera way outside the building, near to the ground, the particles will start appearing. Really weird stuff here.

[loki_ger]

For those having issues with engine shrouds showing up all the time:

Edit the config file \Klockheed_Martian_CoolRockets\stock.cfg. The issue seems to be fixed by deleting all passages looking like this

MODEL

{

model = NASAmission/Parts/Size2LFB/Size2LFB

scale = 1.0, 1.0, 1.0

}

except for the cluster engine (else it will be broken in VAB).

Edited October 2, 2014 by loki_ger
Added exception for cluster engine

[Exentenzed]

Currently broken in 0.25 for me. Multiple tanks and engines models are not showing up at all in the VAB. all you can see are their connection nodes/exhaust.

Just an FYI.

Same here. Some parts, both in the VAB pick list and on the ship are invisible.

After one year of developing and maintaining mods for KSP, it is time to move on for me.

I will release the code and models into the public domain if anyone is interested. Please just drop me a message if you are interested in taking over the development and maintenance for this mod or if you would like to use its code or models in other mods.

It was a pleasure to work with you guys!

[Virtualgenius]

Damn cool rockets and space shuttle engine where awesome all the best dtobi Ihope someone picks this up

[drtedastro]

Thanks for the wonderful mods. Best of luck in your new endeavors..

DrTedAstro.

[Spacepetscompany]

This mod was amazing... It could continue to be amazing if Sommone picks up development! Good luck in whatever you plan to do now dtobi! We all know it will be just as amazing as the work you've done here!

[NathanKell]

dtobi: that's very sad, though understandable--it's a lot of work!

I'd like to use some of this in Real Fuels, if I might. Want to tie ice sheets, etc., to fuel type loaded in tanks.

[NoMrBond]

Thanks for all the work you put into the community dtobi, and going even further by passing the torch

Best of luck in whatsoever you choose to pursue from here

[Zolana]

Me three

I so hope someone will find the time to take this mod over and keep it up to date. I love those effects, and it would be a shame to not be able to have it past version 0.24.x of KSP. I myself am unfortunately in no way qualified to develop mods (I literally have no idea about modding), on top of not having time anyway. Let's wait for a hero to emerge and keep this mod going.
