opps got side tracked with mastodon http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1417259/sekertOOF/pics/SortofRigged.png

anyway here is Mir packages and ready to go you have to move the packaging decouplers stage down as i recall. But i left them on top so you remember to move them

Thanks bud for the up to date craft! 8)

Hi!

I have another problem with Space Station Pack and Angara.

Problem is that every part from these packs load for like 30-60 seconds (or don\'t load at all) on loading screen.

Any suggestions?

[Normak]

Parts will take a long time to load the first time the game boots after installation because the game has to create mesh files for each of the new parts. In past releases, these files were included, but were excluded from this release to decrease the size of the archives and to save space in my dropbox. Also, I have found that the parts that require the plugin (make sure that is in the plugins folder, if you\'ve forgotten) will tend to stall the game after initial instalation. Remove the solar panels, rendezvous engines, and other parts that require to plugin, boot the game all the way, then re-add those parts and try booting again. That\'s what fixed it for me.

Thanks to response, Normak!

Yeah, i tried to load parts like nodes and inverters, but not all of them load without game freeze (0.75 node don\'t work for me).

Even since i loaded other parts, solar panels and other plugin-requred parts freezing game. MuMech plugin is updated properly.

Press Alt-F2 to see what happens/fails upon load., just as a little hint...

how do the rotating solar panels work

edit: nevermind i got it

[TheOverlord5000]

do the docking things currently do anything?

[CardBoardBoxProcessor]

No. just for looks and docking modules in VAB.

I got the angara pack and the fuel tanks work but it says that the engines dont work with my version of ksp... any help?

Lucky you... I wish there was a space center in Paris...

Hi and thanks for all the hard work and awesome mod,

I am having problems with the fuel tanks however, I wonder if you can tell me what\'s wrong. Specifically the Kosmos Expedition Cluster Fuel Tank (Short) won\'t seem to feed fuel to any engines. I\'ve tried radially mounted engines attached to it in the same stage, as well as standard lower mounted engines. When I try and launch off the pad (hit space) there\'s a big poof and a whole lot of nothing happens. Hit space again, and it pops my capsule off. I tried the exact same design with other tanks to make sure I wasn\'t crazy and they worked fine (using a simplified testbed as shown below).

/\ <- standard capsule (top stage)

== <- decoupler =

| | <- Kosmos Expedition Cluster Fuel Tank (Short) (bottom stage) (any other fuel tank works fine here)

/\ <- engine (bottom stage)

Any help or ideas? I\'m afraid I don\'t know enough about editing .cfg files to make heads or tails of it myself, but I have built ships that successfully made it all the way to the mun and back, so I\'m not a complete noob at this (I know how to make a launchable rocket).

Thanks again!

[CardBoardBoxProcessor]

those tanks can only be used with the NERVA engine currently. but trust me. you will want to use the Nerva

[Nexus-7]

Well that explains why it didn\'t work, thanks.

Is there any way to mod the tank so it will work as a normal tank? The vehicle I was planning to use the tank on makes extensive use of radially mounted engines (munar lander) and I wanted to use this tank as the main body of that lander because it\'s > 1m diameter but not too tall, but with plenty of fuel (so good balance between being short, wider footprint and fuel quantity). I\'m sure the NERVA engines are great and will explore them for other vehicles but not for what I need this tank for.

Thanks again!

[Maraz]

Please could we have some sample .craft files od Kosmos space stations and Angara launchers?

Thanks

I made a Skylab, complete with RCS tank and thrusters for, well, thrusting. It has MechJeb on it so I can control it after my Apollo-ish command module has disconnected for de-orbit and landing. It has MJP solar panels on the Solar Telescope, and a pair of TKS panels for the deployed main panel. I put two radiators together to try and make something to look like the solar cover.

[Kodiak]

Looks really awesome!!!

Downloaded and ready to launch (and maybe crash? )

My best regards, Kodiak.

[ElJugador]

Downloaded and installed Angara, but the propulsion parts are kind of greyed out and it says they aren\'t available in this version of KSP. Any ideas?

[Tiberion]

It means it requires a plugin, which in turn required 0.14 or higher of KSP.

If you that version, then you probably forgot to put the DLL files into the Plugins folder; check the included instructions in the zip file of perhaps in this thread.

[ElJugador]

Strange. Angara doesn\'t seem to have any plugins.

[Tiberion]

Well I don\'t use the pack, but the OP says it at least uses Mechjeb. Not sure why the propulsion engines would use mechjeb... but nonetheless, that is what the the error your encountered means

[Kreuzung]

The engines use MuMechLib because it contains more advanced engine classes (different fuel types etc.)

[Nibb31]

I love this pack! I even modified the old Noyuz to mix and match it with Kosmos:

Now, all we need is an LK Lander mod. Any plans for something like that?

[Rocketscienist]

Hey CBBP,

When will you bring out a new version? Are there any features like energy producing panels?

[Kodiak]

Anybody has craft files of these rockets and stations, because I have trouble building them and finding all the parts because I have SO MANY parts that it\'s almost a puzle for me!

Anybody has the craft files, please?

Thanks in advance.

My best regards, Kodiak.
