All 3 go into the root (top level) of GameData. Many mod downloads have a GameData folder inside as a guide. OPT Legacy needs OPT Reconfig (not optional) OPT Main needs OPT Reconfig (optional, but then your OPT won't integrate well with other things).

I would guess, that you first install the main mod, then the configs. Usually all the established mod developers are providing you with an archive that is to be dropped into your KSP folder, merging it with the GameData-folder. Or you drop the actual mod itself into GameData, making sure that only the mod is there without any nested folders (i.e. a GameData folder inside gamedata). That's usually all there is to it...

SAGE is a little stronger now and will flameout at 9 atm, not 3 atm Adjusted particles for all engines (again =D ) Use cases J-61 is no longer as wasteful or wildly OP but is a dynamic scramjet now (endless acceleration with Isp falloff) J-60 is also a dynamic scramjet (endless acceleration with Isp falloff) J-60D requires EC in ClosedCycle, Isp lowered so the J-81 stands alone as highest Isp vac engine (like Dark Drive) but J-60D in closed cycle remains very powerful near sea-level in atmo unlike J-81 J-81 requires EC in ClosedCycle and is poor near sea level, gets a boost at 0.3 atm pressure J-81 airbreathing mode adjusted for thick atmosphere Stail Linear Aerospike has better thrust and Isp Gimbals J-81 visibly animates: given plenty Yaw authority and slight Pitch authority due to dual nozzle (emulate differential thrust) J-60 and J-60D same as J-81 but do not animate WarpJet SURGE given half gimbal ranges of J-60, J-60D Stail Linear Aerospike does not animate but is given plenty Pitch authority Get OPT Legacy :: SpaceDock Get OPT Reconfig :: SpaceDock You are my hero!!!! Now I just have to wait patiently for GPP (with all its dependencies, I'm afraid), Ursa Minor's sunflare (my screenshots aren't the same without it), and a few more mods. Then I will start a new career in 1.4.2, hopefully more stable than 1.3.1. I have bought Kerbal's DLC to support developers, but community content it's by far more valuable. I think developers should improve the base game: performance, stability, graphics, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pr4ger Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Best news of the week and probably lost weekend - my 1.4 career have paused at point where I invented OPT parts, so now I can continue )) many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I know what the problem is. Do you have Nertea's Cryo Tanks/Engines installed? The tank type is conditional (and should not appear if you have CryoTanks) but the subtype (tank option) is not aware and always expects the OPTOX tank type. I should fix that.

JadeOfMaar Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 It's an easy solution. Open GameData/OPT_Reconfig/OPT_B9PS.cfg and look for B9_TANK_TYPE:NEEDS[!CryoTanks] (practically at the top). Delete this part: :NEEDS[!CryoTanks] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RokkyRaccoon Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) I really like all of the parts in this mod, I was trying so hard to make the kinds of spaceplanes I wanted to fly in stock but it just wasn't ever right. However, I'm experiencing an issue where some of the parts, namely the large inline docking port and the deployment bay, are causing the craft to spawn 1050m in the air. I haven't tested every part to see which ones have this bug but those are the two I really wanted to use in VTOL designs. I'm running KSP 0.1.4 (I know this mod has not been patched for .4), FAR (with OPT patch), MechJeb, and KER. Not sure if this is a mod compatibility issue or if it pertains to the 0.1.4 KSP version. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated! Edited April 20, 2018 by RokkyRaccoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In seriousness, those are known issues and unfortunately they aren't going to be fixed anytime soon. Parts with certain complex colliders in any mods will trigger this problem. Either install this or try not to use those parts. Sorry. Speaking of patches and FAR, you may want to grab this if you haven't already. It enables OPT to integrate with newer/better/more mods.

However, WorldStabilizer worked perfectly for me and I just completed the first successful flight of the VTOL SSTO I was trying to build, thanks for the help! Also I noticed this was discussed just a few pages ago in this thread, my bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsunrising15 Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I seem to be having a unique problem exclusive to the OPT-J Deployment Bay. Any time I include the OPT-J Deployment Bay on one of my ships, the ship "launchs" at ~1,100 meters in the air and proceeds to fall immediately to its death. I tried troubleshooting down to the point where I removed all of my other mods (I use about 15, mostly graphical), tested them against each other for conflicts, and then uninstalled/reinstalled a clean KSP, and then added OPT. It's the strangest bug I've ever encountered. Is this happening to anyone else? A known bug? Any fixes? I was looking forward to using that part for VTOL projects.
