Beale Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share Posted October 16, 2017 There are two common colours for the upper stage, but, I think the darker chess style is a bit more unique? You may notice the cylinders on the side of the upper stage, currently thinking what to use these for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaiderMan Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 is this mod and the launch vehicles mod current for ksp ver 1.3.1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hraban Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 @Beale, you confuse me with your cosmos parts. The first stage has the coloring of KOSMOS C1/M3 (based on R-14 / SS-5 Skean) but the fairing and the upper stage look as if they are from a KOSMOS B1 (based on R-12 / SS-4 Sandal). I hope you are aware that apart from the name are two totally different rockets? @popeter45, the radial tanks on the second stage of KOSMOS C1/M3 holds extra fuel for vernier engines.

Expand Thanks, I think some of the reference images have made the same mistake, and show the R-14 in the R-12 colouring. Myself I had no idea of the R-12 version, missed that. Try yourself a Google search for Kosmos 3m and see I think in the end, it looks better? I will keep the colouring.

Beale Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) GITHUB Upload of current Cosmos parts for you to have a play around with. They have been balanced and put in the tech-tree. The upper stage engine is still to come. But I have other commitments first... Thanks @hraban for some help and background on this one.

RaiderMan Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 @Beale having an odd issue with a launcher I put together. when I perform a revert to launch, if I hit the m-map key, the nav ball flips from blue to brown. if I do this mid air, nav ball flips and launch stack begins to nose over prepatory to an explosive lawn dart. reverting to VAB does not cause this. sans capsule/service module, as I've ruled that out by mounting the capsule/service module to another booster and tested with no issues.. below is the parts list for the proton k launcher, stock configuration, sans CSM parts list. a-11k booster stage c/r-d55 decoupler a-22k rocket motor a-22p propellant tank a-33k rocket motor a-33p propellant tank lr-5ba fairing base something about this stack is causing the nav ball to go all wonky after a revert to launch...

RaiderMan Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 ok..looks like I built it wrong SOMEHOW...I just did a forensic reconstruction..works perfectly, identical assembly and everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjsnh Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Beale, First - I love the new previews. Seriously - amazing work on that R-7 revamp (especially the prospect of both grey AND green skins, for reasons I mentioned previously) and the Kosmos (been waiting a long time for that one!!) Second - apropos what a few others have said, please don't stop doing "pack" version releases of Tantares and/or TantaresLV when additions are ready. Its far easier for a lot of us to just download the latest pack than to download the pack, then trawl through the thread for github links etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have slowed down drastically in recents months / year - half is due to life circumstances (work/family) and also I think people were hoping for longer release cycles (Really avoiding any breaking changes for a long time now though).

Alcentar Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Hello @Beale, I have a question for you, how do you make your own flame. 1. I go to Unity and create an empty GameObject 2. Then I add Particle Emitter to it that comes with PartTools 3. I create a flame, add material, texture, and export as a simple model through PartTools, but when exporting there is not enough texture, it does not go with export and it means that I'm doing something wrong. You can tell me what I'm doing wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be KSP/Particles/Additive or AdditiveSoft Simulate world space is not active. Hope to help Only final thing, if you are on a older version of Unity (3.X or some version of 4.X) the particle tools don't work.
