I kind of fixed your leg problem ;) 

What mod are those awesome leg parts from? Those things ROCK :0.0:

That new fuselage part is great. I've been using random fuel tanks to build craft, but this is a great addition. Is this available for updating? or an upcoming release?

I just realised I have a few old files, Mir modules, Zarya, and TKS. Should I upload them to github?

If they work with the current version, sure!

Many thanks :)

You can get this part right now from the GitHub link a few posts above this. It will be released fully soon.

Thank you for more information!

Argh, very inconsistent behaviour between separate installs. This is really hard to diagnose.
Are you all:

  • on version 1.4.3?
  • Using any parachute mods / aerodynamic mods maybe?
  • Do your parachutes have any variant options (Little tear / droplet icon on the part)?
  • A screenshot of GameData would be very helpfuil too :) 

I appreciate the frustration, hope I can help fix this soon.

 

Happier news:

Fix on spacedock for Vostok fuel spheres, let me know if there are still problems / suggestions for balancing :)

I was reading this thread from the back trying to determine what the difference between the regular New Tantares and the LV version is on CKAN when I noticed this post about the parachute.

I want to report I actually just had the no drag parachute happen with a clean reinstall (and no mods yet) of the Beta rollback of KSP 1.4.3 from Steam.

I started over due to a badly corrupted career save and made a starter ship with the stock MK1 pod, decoupler, stock flea booster, and stock starting pod chute and had it pancake....

Chute opened at 1000m and did nothing....continued at 170m/s into the ground.....

Went back into the VAB and when I right clicked on the chute it said 0.0 meters area predeployed and deployed.....so I don't know what is going on now....

I'm beginning to wonder is the 1.4.3 beta build on Steam is corrupted....

I suppose I will have to report this if it's still like that when I go back in again.....

Is this to say you were having the same issues with the stock parachute? Interesting.

Basically yeah, I was mentioning that I had an occurrence of the basic stock unmodded initial parachute behaving as if the chute did nothing.

It happened twice in a row but seemingly went away after restarting the game.

Kerbal Space Program seems to have a lot of interesting glitches.....to be honest....

Apollo-Style upper stage in tantares parts.

Unfortunately I cannot see it :(

Nice nice nice! Very cute :D 

 

No size changes here, previous craft should not be affected.

Are these retextures of the existing parts (that's what it looks like), or new parts? Looking pretty sweet!

Many thanks, these are re-textures of the existing Progress parts, with a few minor model tweaks.

I thought I'd share images of the craft and a space station I've been building primarily using Tantares (also Tantares In Colors). I really love this mod and can't believe I only recently started using it!

See below for photos (didn't want to long-spam the thread). Also, sorry if this is off-topic. :P

Spoiler

This class of vehicles is inspired by the Soyuz/Shenzhou and the design evolved around specific mission needs. I'm using a couple other mods for specific parts (Heat Control, BDB, Soviet Solar Panels, etc) but the core of this playthrough is Tantares.

Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle - Alpha (OMV-A Mk2)

HB3AIVH.jpg

  • Base vehicle for orbital operations including delivery, resupply, and basic lifting missions
  • Vehicle weight is 7,387Kg with 1,431m/s dV (23 total parts)
  • Total crew capacity is 3 kerbals (2 capsule, 1 habitation)
  • Includes short-range communications and basic heat management technology
  • Designed primarily to de-orbit after 2-3 missions but can maintain operations for slightly longer durations

 

Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle - Max Capacity (OMV-M Mk2)

5EXGjXd.jpg

  • Upgraded class with greater crew capacity used for crew transfer missions and orbital operations
  • Vehicle weight is 9,872Kg with 1,922m/s dV (40 total parts)
  • Total crew capacity is 5 kerbals (3 capsule, 1 habitation, 1 airlock)
  • Includes longer-range communications an advanced heat management technology
  • Designed for longer-duration missions to support space station operations with capability to de-orbit capsule module (3 crew only) for emergencies

 

Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle - Lifter (OMV-L Mk1)

uVbqxKv.jpg

  • Stripped-down class used in orbital construction and module lifting where drone vehicles are not feasible
  • Vehicle weight is 5,788Kg with 881m/s dV (27 total parts)
  • Total crew capacity is 2 kerbals (capsule)
  • Includes short-range communications and basic heat management technology
  • Designed to be de-orbited for crew return via the detachable crew capsule after 1-2 missions

 

I've also just finished a space station in orbit utilizing the Mir/Salut components and inspired by the Tiangong 2 concept. Construction was completed using the OMV class vehicles across several missions. You can see an OMV-M Mk2 docked at the main docking connection.

Wow! Those are really nice, thanks for sharing :) 

I'm sure many would enjoy the craft files!
