I'll issue a warning this time, edit your post, please. Many apologies for that!I must be tired, I really believed that post, bah.Back to real world, a less angry man:Is it preferred wings are separate, or integrated into the lifting body?

RobotsAndSpaceships Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Wings should definitely be separate, it'll be easier to configure for FAR or NEAR. Users can always just use Ubiowelder if you really just have to have one part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm, okay. These are good points on the wings.Poor drawing: Maybe like this?Green - vertical wings.Blue - flaps.The landing style is also another sticking point - to know what the new aerodynamics will allow, I don't know. I was planning just a dumb parachute setup.But, it looks cool without a doubt, I mean really cool. I'm beginning to fall in love with this thing.

Kibble Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hey Kliper looks really good! You should definitely make the wings separate parts so you can use it as a biconic-like lifting body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beale Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) Hey Kliper looks really good! You should definitely make the wings separate parts so you can use it as a biconic-like lifting body.Thanks!People are referring to the other Klipers?I'm not so sure, what I really am keen to achieve is the nice heatshield underside, which is a little difficult to achieve with separate wings.Also SP+ textures are a must for this, I'm excited to try to texture in a little new "territory" something new.If the texture sharing is set up right, an alternate conical model might not be difficult at all.

billbobjebkirk Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Perhaps you could make a "mini" 1.25m version like IXV, HYFLEX, or ASSET Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beale Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) Perhaps you could make a "mini" 1.25m version like IXV, HYFLEX, or ASSETCurrently working to the 1.25m scale - I based the size since it shares the OM with the Soyuz. So it was pretty nice to scale.Never knew about ASSET, that's really cool. Edited March 20, 2015 by Beale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, flamerboy67664/SpaceEagleI cannot into satire, it seems. That foldable toilet is really neat.Weren't you complaining just a few days ago that you don't have enough time? Time comes in drips and waterfalls. Tomorrow I will be hunched over a desk, Sunday I will be texturing the Kliper. It's the nature of semi-freelance work, not that I hate it!

DGatsby Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Thanks!Yes, the PIRS/POISK I have considered for part of the Progress parts, which also would make this nice OM, they do seem very similar.Neat! It will make an neat little set of ships.Also, the Kliper is looking really great! I'm excited for both the PPTS and this little shuttle.

VenomousRequiem Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 HotRockets, not SmokeScreen. Well I guess you need SmokeScreen for it but you know. Mostly because I like the way the FX from the engines get's bigger and the flames go everywhere and such as you get higher up like a real rocket would.

Djolox Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Yay! Kliper made my day! Thanks Beale!Edit: Angara would be a nice addition after PPTS Kliper and Vostok. Edited March 21, 2015 by Djolox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaw Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Beale, there a bug in Capella/ATV's internal: portrait camera's are swapped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djolox Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I found a bug too! I played a bit with LK and i quit the game for a moment, when I came back the weird sizing bug, same as one with Pavonis affected the crew pod! Landing legs even if I left them extended they auto-retracted every time I go out of the game or even board/leave the ship! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niemand303 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Beale, the RO RP is merged, so when the next RO version comes out you can definitely delete the configs from the mod folder. Slightly offtop, someone asked for Spiral photos, I took them today (and even petted that beauty, she is so cute!):Javascript is disabled.

Also Beale, Tantares keeps getting better and better. http://i.imgur.com/gG9OFqH.pngThat's great! I like seeing unusual stuff.The SSTO there is unusual shape, is there a benefit to have the cargo bay on front?Also - The Soyuz is green, or is the light fooling me?
