Spacepetscompany Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) About a month ago, I saw a thread on the forum about a parts pack, which was to be designed specifically to make easier, the delivering process in getting a rover from orbit, to the ground when using FAR and/or Deadly Reentry. I became very excited, as I had been waiting for such parts for a while now, however, the thread died down very quickly,before anything was ever released . After waiting a while (a month), hoping that the thread would be revived, I realized that that was very unlikely to happen. So I decided to ask the community, full of amazing modders as it is, for such a rover delivery pack instead! The pack should be at least slightly stockalike, be compatible with FAR and Deadly Reentry, and feature several parts dedicated to constructing rover delivering systems such as skycranes, capsules in which a rover could be held during reentry with attachable heat shields, etc. I would appreciate it greatly if someone were to look into this. Can't wait. Edited August 26, 2014 by Spacepetscompany Title Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spacepetscompany Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 Not quite, those parts are all replicas of real probes/rovers and are designed for only those vehicles specifically. In short the parts are not quite modular, and don't quite fit with KSPs unique art style, on top of that, thier use outside of thier designated rover/probe is extremely limited, unlike stock parts. So no, unfortunately that is not what I was looking for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wow! Yes, that's almost exactly what at least I had in mind! Thanks for finding that mate. But I think for Spacepetcompany that is only a part of what they want. Also wanting more parts to build skycranes.This mod has a few useful parts for that. Small structural parts and small tanks etc. I think the way to get what you want Spacepetcompany is a collection of mods. Maybe you can make a mod pack.

Spacepetscompany Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 Hmmm... Yes that is perfect, both of those are perfect infact, it does look like the way to go is a collection of mods, however it would still be great if Sommone were to try to make a full pack it would be even better... Nonetheless this is still great, thank you everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cxg2827 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I just started the development yesterday, but I'm working on a pack of various modular aeroshells specifically to be used for DRE. Making larger based ones the Mars DRA, and then ones similar to the one Lucid Hills postedHere is a peek of the first test parts that I got into the game. Going to post a development thread after I get a majority of them completed with somewhat decent texturing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
