Danny88 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Seeing the unpainted, bare-metal N-1 fly in Kerbal is something special. I wonder what color it would have been painted if they ever solved all the issues? Military green? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grey and partially white paint used in versions preceding 7L created heat issues, so every version after 6L would be all the way white.

I think I pointed this out last R7 iteration but I can't remember how I worded it. I'm not sure what is correct, I am using this reference. 23 hours ago, NeoFatalis said: I think a 1.25 core and 1.875 or 1.5 boosters would also cool (for example BDB/Trails already have 1.5 capsule) 23 hours ago, CobaltWolf said: I think 1.5m is only an off size if you let it be one, Beale. But we've already discussed this before. There's not much else that can be 1.5m, I don't really mind 1.875m parts because they will be well supported with other parts in the mod. 20 hours ago, SpaceToad said: TantaresLV not updated? That's right! Release parts now or wait for Soyuz rocket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: also the soyuz service module lower part is 1.5 , I do get your point but at the same time 1.5 can be expanded a bit..(1.875 boosters would still be really nice) Edited December 18, 2016 by NeoFatalis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Soyuz is 1.25m and everything else is roughly scaled from that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beale Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 New TantaresLV 1.0 Version 1.0 N1 Family of launch vehicles. Blok-D upper stage. Fregat upper stage. Let me know if you find any bugs. This version is not compatible with previous versions of TantaresLV, or previous save files. Be careful! Many thanks for those assisting with reference images and more! @hraban no grid fins out of the box, I am trying to animate them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joeybafoey Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 It doesn't look like Blok D, its associated engine, or the decoupler that fits between it and LK is in the download. Also a bunch of other decouplers (the white ones with the Red arrows on them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have it as MODEL { model = TantaresLV/SUS/Parts/BlokD_LFO_A } And it should be MODEL { model = TantaresLV/Parts/SUS/BlokD_LFO_A } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to get the proportions exactly RL accurate between the parts (different tank radii between booster and core, etc) would mean sacrificing a lot of the multi-use functionality your parts are great for etc etc. 13 hours ago, Beale said: New TantaresLV 1.0 Version 1.0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdyTXBT5CQE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Reonic Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I only use a rescaled 1.875m R7 rocket. I just scaled everything up by 1.5 in the configs. Looks better IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artwington Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Hi I installed the Tantares - Stockalike Soyuz and MIR mod and found the Gamedata files to be the same files for New TantaresLV - Stockalike Launch Vehicles mod. Did I miss something or was it uploaded accidentally with the same files? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tantares has been updated for a bit now, however the Tantares LV update included a full revamp of some (all?) rockets, so it took longer.

Joeybafoey Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 (edited) It also doesn't look like the Hippo LES is in the new release either. Speaking of launch escape systems, if I made an LES for the N-1, would you add it to the mod? Something like this: (It would probably take me a while to make because I have lots of schoolstuffs and such) Edited December 23, 2016 by Joeybafoey Post No 13,000!
