which have won?

black, yellow and white?

White and black won the vote.
Yellow was already a thing with a few Mir parts, and now is expanded to cover all the Progress parts (but not Almaz)

There are now some white and yellow docking ports also.

Might make some Waterfall configs for some of these engines

We have some news incoming for this soon (TantaresLV) :)
But PR are always welcome if you are able to make any for Tantares proper (RCS and orbital engines, etc).

I plan to do so, but it will take some time.

Some 2 cents: Rotanev structural end cap for 7K-L1 (as specified in @Friznit's wiki) becomes available much, much later than other Zond-related parts. IMO, all these caps should be available at Engineering 101, if not at the very start. They are, after all, just end caps.

Also: please consider adding RCS to Blok-D. Sure, you can add existing parts - but this looks like (and in fact is) a "kolkhoz tuning", as we like to say in Russia (means "hillbilly mod"):

Blok-D rcs will be a thing with at some point, I j ust lost my patience modelling the inital core body of it.
Unfortunately I missed the message to sneak these in for this release (tech tree for caps), but next for sure.

Many thanks for the assistance in development.
As usual, any issues let me know. This is a large update, and though I've tested an okay amount, things can still slip through.

You can get Tantares on both GitHub, Spacedock, and CKAN.
Craft files are included in Tantares and TantaresSP.

Tantares - SpaceDock
Tantares - GitHub

(Earth Orbit Spacecraft)

Have fun!

Thank you and all other contributors.

Do you foresee glitches if I update an existing Tantares and KSP 1.10.1 save?

Can't say for certain, but I think it should be okay.
The new inventory module has been added to parts, which won't work in KSP 1.10, but I don't think it will be breaking.

Hopefully this does not mean the end of RealPlumes support.

Completely up to Zorg. IMO Waterfall is better looking, more flexible, and more performant than realplume, so he has my total support and understanding if he wants to drop it.

Tantares RealPlume support is provided within RealPlume stock rather than within Tantares' own files. As I mentioned in that thread, I dont really have the time to actively do new configs for RP stock as I am working on Waterfall based stuff these days (including for Tantares LV coming soon as Beale mentioned). However if anyone were to submit updates I would gladly merge them along with bug fixes. RealPlume-stock has always been a community effort and peoples contributions are always appreciated.

By the way, Bill, didn't you try to make the Zarya module?

wow that's old.

That was going to be a mash of both the Zarya and ACTS soyuz, but if I ever did it in future I think I would do just a plain old Zarya.

I don't have plans to make it any time now though. Maybe KSP2?

вау это старое.

Это должно было быть смесью "Зари" и "ACTS" союза, но если бы я сделал это в будущем, думаю, я бы сделал просто старую добрую Зарю.

Однако у меня нет планов делать это в ближайшее время. Может КСП2?

I'm afraid we can't wait for KSP 2

Although, as for me, it would be nice to see such a capsule in fashion.

I remember trying to do something like this myself.   gUb75I4nHiE.jpg?size=1280x733&quality=96

If I removed the stock Squad parts folder does this mod replace/substitute enough parts to play a Career Mode game?   If used with stock parts is there a Restock texture conflict?

I would recommend you to get the mod janitors locker, it allows you to hide parts ingame

if you use restock and delete stock parts, then you are gonna have a bad time...

Do I need to change anything in the wiki, such as part names?   I've updated Energia already.

I'll remove the old/duplicate craft files from my github wiki to avoid any confusion.

I will shoot you a PM when I get a good free minute, hopefully not many changes outside of CTRL+F "Vega" -> "Grus" :)
And a few new parts.

My next project? Oh man, that's months away at least before I even start it.

Right?

This...

If so will Luna 17 be included?

Just updated, great thing! By the way, what kind of green(from Restock color palette which is on Restock github) do you use for Soyuz/Progress/Salyut/etc? Or just a hex number. Thanks in advance!

“Tantares Green” is #5b7d39.

More colors here.
