Have you guys seen the new NASA suit proposals...

They look like something out of a SciFi film... It's the new Z2 suit.

oh i remember those, i voted for technology

I've had enough of making configs for ATM at the minute so I'm branching out into making my own custom skyboxes. This first attempt is a low res 2048x248. The stars twinkle!!!!!!! It's called Purple Haze Releasing later.

This is low res version. I'm releasing high res too.

Will come with a matching visor reflection

New version of Purple Haze Skybox coming tommorow

Even though SRI is dead for now can you release the suits you were going to make or at the very least torture us with pictures of what could have been?

Already decided this the other day... I spent a lot of time making those so expect them in the next update.

I was wondering, is it possible to draw over the clear face plate to create things like a Dead Space like helmet?

[ebookah]

looking good. I like

Oh man those are awesome!! I wish they would be in combo with SRI but real life always comes first. Still a damn shame that MOD wont be completed, at least not in the foreseeable future.

Yes but the more complex the design the harder it is to make it look right due to the way KSP applies the texture to the visor.

I made a really rough visor to try and work out how it is mapped a while ago and he result is this:

The result is a fairly complex map...

[Tommygun]

Oh I see.

I guess it's like drawing a map of the world on a flat piece of paper and then trying to fit it onto a round globe?

[sp1989]

Here is an idea! Pacific Rim suits?!

[Talisar]

Oh I see.

From the looks of it, trying to fit it on a round globe that mirrors it left to right, and maybe a third of the top to the bottom? I have a hard enough time figuring out the UV maps that I make myself, I could never make anything look good on that. But if anyone can, it's probably GS

Please, please re do the helmets I'm begging you. No rush just when you have time.

I have already said I will but my real life business (how I earn my money) has to come first and right now it's taking up 99% of my time

Ok no rush, what your doing with this mod is awesome. And good luck with this mod and your job .

So I have a KSP series with two battling factions and I need to be able to assign different helmet textures (green striped and dark orange striped) to certain characters. I've read through the various configs and I've done it with the suits but I can't find an option for helmets. Any tips would really help

simply add the helmet texture into the suit folder eg black stripe helmet goes in with the black stripe suit - easy if you want combinations simply create a new folder with the desired combination in and assign in the @ config file

[Green Skull]

To all - The summer is my busy period for my RL business. I make hay while the sun shines so I can spend all the miserable UK winter in the warm playing games.

Development has slowed to a crawl but I did put in a couple of hours on some stuff earlier. Talisar I haven't forgotten mate it was your stuff I was doing

Lol, didn't know it was so easy. Thanks

When your back I think a suit to match the newest version of MKS would be great! I would also love to see a suit that looks like a robot, to be used with Any mod like TAC life support so you can have a robot crewman that doesn't require life support!

[Westi29]

Hey when you get back check out these suits and species I made. Could use some help making them even better!

Hey there Green Skull, you have an amazing pack that I have utilized on many KSP installs!

I have decided recently to try and trim my suits down to a manageable amount that are recolors of each other.

So far, I'm utilizing J's Pack(+a few recolors given to me by someone) for the generic Kerbals and your Black GSI + 2 recolors for the main 3. Here's where my problem/question comes up - After editing your Black GSI suit in Fireworks, I have lost the shine and the texture doesn't look right on the helmet.

Here's what I mean.

I hope you can shed some light for this newb texture editor!

Thanks in advance!

Found my problem, I am a noob! Oh yeah, the messup was with my ATM config =\ Stupid me.

i can do you some of the existing suits i have no problem. I haven't got around to making the ranked suits yet - i'm not sure if i'm going to be working on a project with nerid and final frontier or not so for now that is on the back burner. You can have the choice of white or orange in the next day or two. Or red, blue, yellow, black, green, purple or pink sometime over the next week when i get time to finish the coloured suits. You are no less of a president if you choose pink...

dark green!

I like that a lot! I think a good Soviet name would be Zelenonaut (it is a portmanteau of green and cosmonaut) now all we need for a full Gemini 4 recreation is a Gemini-era EVA tether and a door-opening animation for the FASA Gemini. 

You can recreate the tether with KAS, however the door would be hard. What I want to see is that maneuvering gun though.
