NASA Asteroid Redirect Mission Pack/0.23.5 Images: now with 100% more SLS

[TMS]

Ugh.... Are they really using those chubby 1:4 adapters as an engine cluster???

I don't think KW has much to worry about.

*hugs the clipping option in the debug menu*

[Bomoo]

Man, that LES looks like ****. The one in KSPX looks a bunch of times better, and closer to the stock-alike aesthetic imo. Those engine cluster adapters look okay to me, however. Eager to see the look of what appear to be some new engines as well.

Man, forget all the haters, the new parts look great. Finally a stock LES, and the new part sizes look great. I think so many people are just so used to all their favorite mods they don't like that the new stock stuff isn't exactly like it.

[Javster]

No Orion capsule?

[MalfunctionM1Ke]

Please pass on that the friendly neighborhood Whackjob would like to know if there's anything codewise that would prevent me from doing a powered landing of a rock onto Kerbin?

I bet there is nothing that is preventing that, Whack.

The only thing needed is a lot of fuel and we know you can do that

Well,Just for fun I HAD to do this quote from shrek "I like that asteriod thats a nice asteriod" i changed the boulder part

[Bomoo]

Anyone else feeling like the 3.75m parts don't quite have the "stock" feel to them? It's kinda hard to tell from just those images, but to me those tanks look just a bit off.

Yeah... I agree. They also look a bit samey when stacked on top of each other. Presumably there will be different sizes of 3.75m tanks at some point.

[Porkjet]

Hmm so the new size is going to be 3.75m?

Those parts really don't look that great tho, even just from looking at those pictures.

Damn they should get Nova back on the team...

[Lazro]

Is it bad that I think that the new SLS parts are okay? Because I think they're okay. Not amazing, but okay.

[GusTurbo]

I think they look good. Also it looks like we might be getting a new engine size. The core stage engines look bigger than 1.25m engines but smaller than 2.5m ones. Same for the engines on the boosters.

[K3-Chris]

I prefer the KW parts honestly, also has more variety I'd imagine, then again I prefer 1.25m and 2.5m KW parts over stock as well.

[Tanner Rawlings]

i think im acting like jeb cause the larger rockets made me cry with joy

[Comrade Jenkens]

Thank you! I don't like how these new parts look, though. I've seen many mods that look better. Here is my KSP screenshot taken long time ago

If by looking better so you mean more realistic because that's not the looks the devs are going for.

[macegee]

Another set of parts that doesn't fit visually with older ones? Really? That escape tower? Pfff. I'm refusing to believe these are real.

[K3-Chris]

Btw bobcat's http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/0-20-x-american-pack-0-1/ has a 3.x~ meter orion, can re-scale it to fit 3.75m easy enough, delete the life support entries to make it work without life support, the Pod is quite nice, though the service module/engine/rcs combo is a bit too restrictive imo, I replaced it using my own parts, I only use the pod, docking port that fits on top of it and the LES:

I don't really care about accuracy to the real thing, I could make the launcher etc more accurate but meh, I care about a larger 6 man pod, not role-playing SLS missions, the pod and parts above work well enough, can't say anything about the rest of the pack, haven't used it.

[Guest]

Those new SLS parts look really good. In fact, they should re-make all stock parts in that style. Much better than fuel tanks that look like steel drums and engines that don't look really look like anything. Really looking forward to the new update, I hope the rest of stock parts gets at least reskinned to the new SLS aesthetic at some point.

[GusTurbo]

I think the texture settings are just set lower in that image. I'm kind of curious why the launch abort system doesn't look like the SLS one.

[Bomoo]

I hope so. The escape tower in that picture looks like complete ass.

[sgt_flyer]

Don't forget we are still in alpha for ksp - lots of textures / models will be improved before the official release. (I'm looking at you, mk3 parts )

[K3-Chris]

Don't forget we are still in alpha for ksp - lots of textures / models will be improved before the official release.

Don't be silly, KSP won't have an official 1.0 release put on polycarbonate discs inside carboard boxes on store shelves in a store, it will gradually over time get updated with new content and improvements, it's like minecraft, not a AAA released by a publisher.

[K3-Chris]

Done the tweaking

scale = 1

rescaleFactor =1.12

Add/change that on the pod, docking port and LES of the bobcat parts and they fit 3.75 perfectly:

[Mulbin]

Those new large tanks!.... the next build of Munbug will have less than a thousand parts! Huzzah!

[jfull]

I hope so. The escape tower in that picture looks like complete ass.

How so?

It looks fine to me, and more stock-alike than some of the other parts. If you don't like it, the KSPX version isn't going anywhere.

[MalfunctionM1Ke]

I like this LES. More than anything else

[K3-Chris]

Question is if there is a parachute and docking port under that nosecone, if not, it's a pretty pointless part, bobcat version has those.
