[1.7.2] KK Launchers - Delta, Atlas Pack

[Kartoffelkuchen]

Oh, that looks very nice! Why not make your own development thread? ;)

[RaendyLeBeau]

ja gute Frage .. - sorry god Question .. but 'HOW it works' :)) so i need to spend a little more time here in the forum and less with Blender & UNITY :)

[Kerbal01]

just download the spacex pack, cannot wait for F9 1.1. On a IRL note, the F9 for RTF (return to flight, after the CRS-7 launch mishap) is at the cape for a December Launch.

downloaded it, causing so much lag when the parts are on the screen the game is unplayable. ill try lowering my settings.
nevermind, didn't work. removed the pack, game is back to normal. Edited November 21, 2015 by DarthVader

Yes, I saw that on NASAspaceflight now. :)
Uhm, really?:huh: Can you say which parts exactly create that much lag, or do all parts create lag? It could have something to do with the Merlin colliders, though I haven't experimented with them yet.

I've got Merlin 1D now in KSP, support for Texture Replacer is also there! ;)

This is what it looks like ingame:

And this with Texture Replacer reflections:

prolly because I'm using the parts in 1.04 tho only version i have available now. that M-1D looks fantastisch!

[RaendyLeBeau]

[quote name='Kartoffelkuchen']@RaendyLeBeau That looks very nice! Diameter of my F9 is 3.66m, so exactly as big as the real F9, so there should be no problems if you modelled your Dragon to-scale.
Though you might consider to overhaul the trunk a bit, the two "cases" on the side where you attached the solar arrays to are actually protection covers for the solar arrays.

Once in space, these covers get jettisoned. Also, where the arrays are attached, the trunk is like a straight wall, you can see this very good here:

And maybe you could make that engine in there optional, like it being an extra part, so that you can still put cargo in the trunk? Looks very good otherwise! :)[/QUOTE]

affermative :cool: my Dragon Trunk part fit's correctly with 3.66 m diameter

[Tristonwilson12]

the engine shroud is causing severe lag for me,

[Kerbal01]

that was the part causing severe lag for me. i was trying to build my own F9 Dragon qualification unit to add a parachute in the interstage. loading the craft file from the vab window in the space center worked, with minimal wait.
nvm, still waiting.
made a Falcon 5, not enough TWR. crammed a parachute in the interstage, hopefully works
now if the engine block lag could be fixed this would be cool. Edited November 21, 2015 by DarthVader

[Tristonwilson12]

FYI I edited the texture for the Dragon mock up to look like this [IMG]http://puu.sh/ldZr2/75e7ce0918.jpg[/IMG] the heatshield is now the golden color

[Kartoffelkuchen]

Ah, so it's the engine section's cause, that's what I wanted to know! Will fix it!
@triston: Ah yeah, well, seems like I'll need to adjust that texture! ;)

Good news on the source of the lag, now you can rush a hotfix. SpaceX Ãœber alles. Small note: the F9 engine sounds are extremely annoying to the point that I turned the sound off, can you find better clips and blend them more? Edited November 22, 2015 by DarthVader

[Hysterrics]

I love this mod! Textures are great! The sounds, on the other hand, are not that that great.

Question: where is the link for delta/atlas packs?

[Kartoffelkuchen]

[quote name='MajorLeaugeRocketScience']Question: where is the link for delta/atlas packs?[/QUOTE]
The links will be added once I got the rockets ready and working in 1.0.5. ;)

[MajorLeaugeRocketScience]

Sounds good, but what is this about losing everything on the forums?

[StoryMusgrave]

No, No, No. Not everything on the forums is being lost. Read the post. It explains it all.

[MajorLeaugeRocketScience]

K I will

[MajorLeaugeRocketScience]

Hey Kart,

When you're done with all of these EELVs how about doing Saturn rockets?

Do we really need another Saturn?

[MajorLeaugeRocketScience]

YES! Saturn = life! Also there are plenty of unmade ones, like Saturn Is, 2-4, and almost all of the MLVs

Seems like a waste of time seeing as there already are like 3 mods that add different Saturns to the game. FASA even has quite a few components that allows for bulding different Saturns. In addition to those, Shadowmage is busy making a whole host of parts that will allow building anything from the first Saturns, to Nova and all the way past MMM. But hey, I'm just pitching my 2 cents here.

You can never have too many Saturns.

[quote name='davidy12']You can never have too many Saturns.[/QUOTE]

That might very well be true. I just don't see the point of having yet another of the same launch vehicle, nor do I see the point of having Kartoffelkuchen spending his free time making something that already excists. I'm sure he would rather use his skills bringing something new and exciting to the game, instead of making a copy of the Saturn family.

But who knows, he might very well be interested. (Fingers crossed for something new and shiny, instead of that old rustbucket).
