Gaming The Kerbal Space Program - Version 1.2.x

[Unstung]

I rebuilt a space station, but it's currently only one module. I don't know how I wound up accidentally deleting the save game with my old one.

There are slight improvements in the functionality of the crew core. However, there were also two refueling modules on the last version.

I like the look of the rocket powered spaceplane I designed. The flight model is too wonky, so it lands on flat ground like an early manned lunar lander proposal. Flight would probably be too difficult considering I forgot ailerons (those exist in KSP, right?).

I've now got 99 hours on KSP. It'll become my fourth Steam game to break 100.

No, KSP works fine on Win7.

Have you removed any mods/addons that you have installed? Install KSP to a new folder and see if it works there...

Nothing...everytime I click on VAB it crash.

Nothing...everytime I click on VAB it crash.

Do you have an AMD Phenom processor? If so, try enabling "AMD Compatibility Mode" in the advanced settings on the launcher.

Other than that, maybe try stuff in here: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/92228-Known-Issues-Self-Help

I've started a new (technically, my first) science campaign. I think the standard campaign reduces creativity too much on hard, yet any difficulty setting will limit what I can build if money becomes an issue. Collecting science is much more enjoyable than managing funds.

So far, there's no space debris and I plan to keep it that way. An upper stage reentered right over the space complex; its launch vehicle provides very accurate control during the gravity turn. Eight retrorockets are really effective at reducing the perapsis of any debris and lets me use more fuel to reach escape velocity.

A new update is live now.

Time to switch to "previous" branch, until mostly used mods will update, too.

 

[HarvesteR]

In other words, KSP 0.90.0 is now officially released!!

We're in Beta guys!

Cheers!

 

[SolarLiner]

You've come a long way since the 0.8 version!
Great achievement done here, and may the force be with you for the rest of the development phase !

 

[N_Molson]

Well done, Harv !

 

[SolarLiner]

Jeb's so happy he's lifting the overhauled Mk3 cockpit !

 

[boogabooga]

Seeing practical Mk3 shuttles with offset thrust vector is encouraging...

"Too many connections" to d/l from my account.

This will take a few days... :uhh:

Still in 0.25 with FAR, B9, Interstellar and DeadlyReentry, this is the Ravenstar: A SSTO capable of lifting up to 6 Kerbals and a payload of about 4-5t to LKO.

Sign in for carrier pigeon bird-based-broadband. :yes:

Took me 3 mins to D/L with optical fiber

So now that the game is getting more polished, I humbly think it would be interesting to have those features built-in (I know those exist or existed as plugins) :

- Parts overheating during reentry (could be disabled in easier difficulty levels).
- A fairing system, required to protect fragile parts during atmo ascent (again, could be disabled...). Also would make the rockets look much better.
- Probes : necessity to have a comm link with KSP for direct control. (could be disabled...) Possibility to buy/build some tracking stations / tracking ships (or offshore platforms with a nice VTOL pad) across Kerbin. Possiblity to deploy relay satellites. Landing autopilots for landing on other planets (signal delay too high for an efficient direct control). Maybe the possiblity to write small "programs" and upload them to the probe, actually timed scripts (the Map gizmos actually allow that, but I'm more thinking to specific operations such as flybys or science data retrieval).

FAR and Deadly Reentry already updated or released compatibility patches, but I'm not sure about compatibility of the others, as I don't use them. Firespitter plug-in has been updated, so parts using it should be working after putting the new version of the plug-in.

I'm still waiting for RealChute, RemoteTech, Active Texture Management and KSPAPIExtensions (along with Procedural Fairings / Parts and TweakScale using it) to fully restart the game in 0.90. Other add-ons I have used which are now incompatible I can re-add later.

 

[BruceJohnJennerLawso]

Does Kethane still work in 0.90?

 

[jroly]

It is good KSP now has automatic maneuvering, mechjeb not as needed now

 

[N_Molson]

The Shuttle-like parts are nice, sadly its still impossible (to me) to build a shuttle-like stack (vectoring range of the engines way too tight) without putting dozens of Vernier engines (which is not the point).

 

[orb]

I finally got all my essential add-ons updated (some with pre-release, like RemoteTech, or unofficial builds, like Procedural Parts) and I could start a new game again in 0.90.

One question though: what happened to the barn? The 1st tier of space center buildings looks completely differently from presented on pictures some month ago. I quite liked those barn buildings.

Somebody made a patch that should make it working without incompatibility warnings, however I haven't tested it, because I use Karbonite instead:

They are reworking them. It was in the FAQ.

Hey Guys,
is anyone using Remote Tech 2 for Kerbal Space Program? and can me give some good tutorials for Remote Tech?

Sorry for my bad english

I've been using RemoteTech since 0.25, but I'm using additional antennas from AIES Aerospace, Tantares, BoxSat, and additional ground stations from KerbinSide, so it's a little easier than stock RemoteTech.
