Thanks! Which one is the NK-33? Is it the (I assume its RD) RD-33? (Referring to that 33)

 

RD-33 is the Jet engine that powers the MiG-29.   NK-33 is the Rocket engine.

With energia revamp it reminded me something does matryoska-style capsules of LEK and LOK (Energia-Vulkan launched lunar lander, orbiter with soyuz reentry capsule enclose inside bigger crew compartment) possible in KSP? Beside makeshift one with fairing with airlock stick on the side

How do I locate the N-1 parts (Engines, decouplers, etc.)? Do they have a common name?

I tried searching for the NK-33 in the VAB parts search bar, but it doesn't appear. What are the other ways I can find it?

Thanks

In theory you should just be able to search "N1", in VAB and they will appear, but NK-33 should work also.

It sounds like you don't have TantaresLV installed maybe? That has all the rocket / launch vehicle parts.

I think some people made pretty good ones, you can use the LM descent module as a good base:

Well, the problem is the upper part. I have no idea how it should work.

Interesting. Where can I get the craft file for the N-1?

Also, I installed Tantares and TantaresLV via CKAN, so it may be that.

Thanks!

Tantares IVA patch is updated to the last version

https://github.com/AstroWell/Tantares_Patch

Same as before, Tantares_IVA_Patch.cfg use existing Tantares IVA to replace placeholder IVA.

Tantares_IVA_MoreCrew_Patch.cfg use existing Tantares IVA to replace placeholder IVA, but also add more crew to some part to make them "match" the IVA number of seat.

i've made my best to match the shape of all part, but if you really notice something weird let me know

THAT'S AMAZING!!!!!!!

Okay, now do you put it simply in game data or in Tantares folder??

[AeroSky]

Hi!

Just to update you, @Beale, I have located the N-1 parts. They look great! A little pale, but still great! That N-1 first stage is larger than a Duna rocket....

Thanks for the help! Tantares is a great mod, so keep up the amazing work!

Many thanks,

put the patch file inside GameData Folder, but could also work in tantares folder.

(This patch probably need a little review with the last update, i'm actually really busy)

Thank you!

Also FYI it works just great in ksp 1.10.1, I've tested it!

When I try to load the craft files, I get an error that I am missing parts. Any idea why? I also saw I am missing "kOSprocessor", what is this? Thank you.

Just a missing module, you should still be able to click ok and load the craft

Ive been away for a few months, forgive my idiot question - was the N1 removed from tantares LV?

 

If so, what was the most recent version with it?

The N1 haas been completely redone. Any craft you have with the N1 would have to be rebuilt.

Looks like the parts moved too and/or have new names. I wasn't able to find them at first ... one of the side effects of the incredible growth of Tantares :-)

Also - HOLY SMOKES the new Venera parts are frickin amazing! I give @Beale the highest of fives!!

Yeah cannot wait for the Mars parts!

Does anybody know what the roll control setup was supposed to be on the Energia-M? I've looked around and can find basically no information about it. None of the photos of the structural mockup have attitude control thrusters or anything. At least not that I've seen.

I suppose I could just use the Polyus RCS pods or something, but I'm still curious what was actually intended.

This was really tricky to track down yeah, it used two small vernier rockets at the base:

Unfortunately these didn't quite make the cut, I might take a second look when doing smerch

[Mudwig]

@Beale Oh, cool. Thanks! I'm not even sure I could emulate that with current parts. A small RCS pod and some monoprop will have to do for now.

Smerch should be a cool addition. I've just been using Block G. ( with Vulkan also )

Does anyone know what happened with Russian localisation? If I download this mod, ship parts are on English language even if the game is in Russian.

Unfortunately it fell very far behind as the game was updated (the translator has their own busy life of course!), So it was basically pointless to keep as only a few parts were left translated. I welcome new translations.
