Looking great!!!

Wasn't there a theoretical second stage(s) for the Energia with a RD-58 and RD-0120? Any plans for that?

Oh Smerch?

Unfortunately I can't say for sure, we already have the RD-58, but it would just need a few extra tanks maybe?

I found it on Astronautix^^^

Honestly, if you want to make it, just make some tanks/engine adapter within reason.

Only if you want to make it.

Do you mean the Vesuviy upper stage? I covered that in a large post in the Eisenhower Aeronautics thread.

 

(Mostly) off topic, here's an amusing picture:

IDK if that was intended. I thought only two-three Energia LVs were built and they never built one with a upper stage.

Was that tank on the M-4 for an upper stage?

That's a very interesting engine. I'll look into this thanks. Little more involved that the Smerch, but a true upper stage of the same profile is attractive.

It would be a bit smaller, about 4.3m, but that could be a patch like Soyuz size.

What's the Smerch?

To some degree,  Buff and tanned Blok-D

It's cryogenic also.

4.375m is one of the standard sizes, so I'm happy to do just that.

Many thanks, and speaking of Eneriga...

Energia (mostly) done.
There are some visual glitches with the mounts I'm aware of, to  fix very soon (missing endcaps).

Zenit next.

Incase you are not aware, that middle fuel tank piece is using a different kind of LH2 then the round caps.

Zvezda and zenit recovery hardware (the zenit stuff is still a little rough).

These are gorgeous! And can't wait to try out the new Zenit.

Minor bit of feedback: the Venera/Amethyst solar panels  seem very delicate at the moment. I'm quite regularly having them stripped off completely when they just get brushed by staged fairings

Absolutely love these parts, with them and the craft files from Unofficial-Tantares-Wiki I assembled Mir on orbit which was a ball!

Also had the Principia mod installed so low orbit rendezvous were (marginally) more realistic which added another dimension to assembling the station. All modules were launched on their correct rockets from TantaresLV, except for the Docking Compartment where I used a Buran shuttle (stock craft file as I cant build spaceplanes to save my life).

Hey there! First of all this mod is amazing especially when paired up with SOCK AND BDB

 

but I updated Tantares and LV and now once it reaches

Tantares/space/VA/alnair_crew_s2_1/internal/alnair_crew_s2_1_interior

 

it just freezes and doesn’t respond at all

mind taking a look for me?

 

thanks in advance

Nobody can help you if you provide so little information . What version of KSP ?  What version of tantares ? Log files ?
