TK-313 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but is the current release reverse compatible with 1.2.2? Because I want to try it out, but I don't want to break my save. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gut feeling is, it will work fine, but there have been config changes (manufacturer titles and maybe some other things). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad someone knew what I was going for! I was planning on flying an Apollo and a Soyuz out to it as well, but I got sick and at any rate, there were some errors with the textures on my Apollo I didn't have time to fix.

TK-313 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) Tried the latest release, 1.2.2 compatibility confirmed Also, here's some more international cooperation: First, there was a contract to build a space station in Mun's orbit. And there was one N-1 with your typical Munar mission (dubbed Hermes) on top of it, collecting dust in some far corner of the space center with no actual tasks to fly and do. And from these, the Demeter mission was born. Spoiler Repurposing the rocket was a breeze. So, on this Munar mission we have an N-1 carrier... ...with a Gemini on top! Why? Because it's light, plus we don't need a scientist this time. They will arrive a few missions later. Engine start... ...and liftoff! Launchpad cleared, first stage burning with no unplanned explosions! Coasting to apoapsis... Burning to circularise... Well, no. It's actually the start of the transmunar burn. 'Cuz we're on Kerbin. Stock Kerbin. Stage separation. Mind the bug: the engine shrouds still jetisson the wrong way. Fairing sep. That's no lander, that's a space station! Orbital reassembly. You'd think it's a breeze to perform on a Gemini... ...But the flight computer locked up and refused to accept any targets! Me horrible pilot, me can't dock without a docking aid. In the end, the station's autopilot had to be turned on. Thankfully, this one had no such problem. Assembly continues! Jonble, our ever-heroic engineer, goes on EVA to attach some... ...trusses. What? We always need a truss. Or two. And a couple solar panels. Or a couple couples. After some desparate attempts to make the ship's computer target anything, the crew realize they're dead weight here and depart back to Kerbin. Meanwhile, the Demeter station proceeds to pick up a couple landers from previous Hermes missions – for habitation and as possible future Munar shuttles (and that's the reason why we brought N1's third stage and its hulking fuel tank all the way) and then moves from the 14 degrees inclined orbit to the more comfortable equatorial one. Most of it was happening on the night side, but here's a nice shot. The end? Well, not really. Valentina and Jonble are here very busy hoping not to burn in the atmosphere or lose the parachute and saying many nice words to whoever balanced their Gemini. Thankfully, there's a happy end for them. Edited June 13, 2017 by TK-313 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particular of strong interest to @Deltac And they say Tantares is all grey, uh, think again honey... Rough mockup of complete craft: @Fly Angry You excel at everything! That looks so good!

Do we have a translator?). (Config and descriptions are temporary). Thanks for @Daelkyr for more balancing on the N1! Coming an update soon. (The Blok-A is now 47 tons! empty!).

smotheredrun Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 @Beale , while working on my last space station design in KSP 1.2.2, I was looking for some trusses that would work out to something similar to the ISS. Naturally after grabbing Hab Tech, CX Aerospace, and a few others I can't remember, the trip down that rabbit hole lead me to Tantares . So of course I grabbed Tantares LV, because why not, right? I have a question: I seem to be unable to load any of the Tantares (regular or LV) craft files, they all have a popup window in the SPH/VAB that says "Cannot load vessel. The following parts are missing:" And on many of the craft files, the list of missing parts is quite long. Using the forum search in this thread I have not found an answer... Do you have any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesecake Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 @smotheredrun Do you have both Tantares and Tantares LV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried both the Spacedock and Github downloads from the OP. No joy. But so far I'm doing ok by using images from the forums and internet in general to teplicate the various payloads. I haven't started to make some launch vehicles though. Not at my laptop now, but I'm pretty sure the N1 launch vehicle loads correctly.

It would be great if you can get a screenshot of the missing parts warning, I will hopefully be able to tell on a glance what is missing.

GitHub More PIRS stuff.This ends 1.2.2 compatibility, as strings are migrating to the new localisation system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobaltWolf Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 @Beale I'm bored with Russian stuff. Can I request a stockalike American program? With parts like Apollo and Saturn? I'm tired of trying to keep FASA working on my install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's our ticket to the future, Eath year 1987! TMK spacecraft, manned for flybys of Mars and Venus. It's also found under MABP for Марс and Венера. I've been planning to do it for... a long time. But for some reason it gets delayed. Okay, real question, what do people want? Original Salyut parts, or the above? (Or Polyus). On the rocket side, I'm working on Energia now.
