cziken20 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I wanted to ask - how will this work? Will it simply delete all stock parts and put your own ones? Or it will only delte a few of stock parts? Or simply add a lot of new parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Sierra Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 lookin forward to this. good work dude.Like Novapunch, KW, B9, etc., it just adds a ton of parts. The ultimate goal is that you'd no longer need stock, at which point it's up to you to decide on deleting or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemoria Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Helix935: Don't hold your breath, it's unlikely I'll have a complete pack out soon, much less before the new release of H.O.M.E . At the rate of 2 or 3 parts a day, it's going to take me a while. Work gets in the way during the weekdays as well. :[I'm still new to unity, so I imagine it'll take me a bit to get used to actually importing these pieces. Seshins: Captain Sierra summed it up nicely. I wont delete any parts from your computer (if i could, then you have some security issues I should talk to you about) , but instead intend to do a 1:1 part replacement. Initially i plan on putting together the craft(s) i doodled, so I can make some good example vessels so people can see what is possible with these pieces, but afterwards I'll be filling out the rest of the tech tree, and adding to it as well. The stock system Squad put in the game is lacking in various areas, and I intend to close those holes.--1m_2m short fuel tank and its friend the 2m short interstage adapter. The adapter is on a dummy plate I made for the opposite end of 2m fuel tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Sierra Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I was in the middle of eating breakfast, then I saw there was a new post by Daemoria. So I clicked on it. Big mistake. I now have a half finished pancake and no lower jaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cziken20 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Before i read what it is, i thought that the first part is a command capsule And everyoby is telling that their jaw is broken. Mine not, except my brain is now a small piece of dust, because it exploded to many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Sierra Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Before i read what it is, i thought that the first part is a command capsule -snip(?)-It would make a sexy command pod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemoria Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Oh dear, that's a terrible waste of a pancake. Rocket p0rn is not a good substitute for breakfast. Also, I'm not even sure Jeb would think it a good idea to ride inside a fuel tank. But there is a first time for everything i guess...That said, what do you guys think of dedicated inverted components. With the amount of edge detailing i've got going on, if you manually rotate a part in the VAB, the bits won't line up logically. Adapter clamps will not have a proper seat, etc. Or would creating a separate [1to2] and [2to1] (and all other sizes) just create unnecessary part bloat?

rkman Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Looks very nice, except for the occasional glowing-scifi-dohicky-that-serve-no-apparent-purpose-except-to-look-cool such as the red-hot glowing handlebar-like thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soviet style clustered engines, cool as they are, already create a bit of part bloat, no point in increasing that with adapters if you can help it. There are ~280 stock parts, so if you can do total conversion and keep it under 300, you've done a really good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just counted 172. Though a few of those may have been mod parts. Edited February 23, 2014 by sojourner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boamere Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Daemoria, please please, don't listen to everyone trying to change the way you make them, make them the way you want to! (take suggestions but don't follow them blindly)Keep up the good work, I can't wait for these parts (oh and I like part bloat... as long as they are good parts )Edit: Also love all the little details and things on the tanks, it makes it different to all the part packs out there with boring flat rocket tanks!

Seshins Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I think Captain Sierra and OP misquoted me - i said good work, looking forward to this, nothing to do about whether it replaces stock parts? That was the post after mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frizzank Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I really like the visual design you have what did you use for inspiration / reference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemoria Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 Seshins: Sorry about the confusion. This thread moves too quickly to keep track of, expecially when I'm sleep deprived.frizzank: I've pulled inspiration from the Soyuz space program, and other past and near future space programs. Also a lot of my designs are based off of my previous experience with concept art and are entirely origional.An example of my other work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
