And there's the cargo system in action. Still lots of work to do :coffee:

Seems like I missed a bug :facepalm: These modules should fix it: http://woo482.gdwnet.com/Files/Addons/HCLV/HCLV_Hyperion_v1_02.zip They need to be installed over the main package.

The EDS is controlled like a normal vessel, the MFD only works with the launch vehicle itself.

It doesn't work quite as expected, I think because the spacecraft uses DetachChild to detach itself from the launcher in flight. I imagine that could be fixed by making the launch adapter a separate vessel and then attaching that to the HCLV though.

I believe PM SDK uses attachments to attach the child vessels to the launcher and then transfers any forces from them to the parent.

This .dll should grapple UCGO boxes too: http://woo482.gdwnet.com/Files/Addons/CSSC/XR5Crane.dll No guarantees on it working properly though, so I'd recommend backing up the default .dll.

Could you post the configuration file of the vessel you're trying to grapple? It should be able to pick up anything with an XRCARGO attachment defined, which should look something like this: BEGIN_ATTACHMENT P 0 -0.1 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 XRCARGO END_ATTACHMENT

One of the Hyperion's four liquid boosters returning to Earth after a successful test flight:

851.5 kN per booster.

Are you trying to hide the fairing of a vehicle that's already present in a scenario? if so you'll have to change the first value of the "LV_Config" tag in the scenario to zero: HE0_5x8:Themis-A\Themis-A_HE0_5x8 STATUS Landed Earth POS -80.6753170 28.5222550 HEADING 150.00 AFCMODE 7...

The lower energy stage, used mostly for delivering lighter payloads to LEO:

Instead of struggling with the autopilot I decided to take a break and work on some more interesting (and easier to code :P) features for the Themis. First up is a small utility to help with configuring the launch vehicle, though it's not entirely finished yet I think this shows the rough...

How about putting them in the ranch? I'll be spending quite a bit of time harvesting wool there anyway.

I have about 1,000 nether bricks and should be able to get 5,000 wool, if that's enough I don't mind taking the dome off of your hands :P

I could probably manage to run the fort for a year or two, no promises on it not failing catastrophically though :P

You might be missing the Visual C++ 2010 redistributable files: http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=5555 I think "MSVCR100.dll" is the .dll that the platforms depend on specifically.

The fairing configuration feature I mentioned in my last post has now been fully implemented. It's now as simple as adding three or four lines to a configuration file and creating a mesh to add extra fairings to the vessel. Config file example: ; Themis-A global configuration file ;Fairing...

I had that issue, downloading a fresh copy of Minecraft appeared to solve it :shrug:

Now that most of the basic framework for the launcher is done I've started work on the visual aspects of the launcher: Currently only a very basic Max-Q effect is present but I'll eventually add staging and launch effects. As well as upgrading the visual effects of the launcher I've started...

I'm pretty busy with other projects currently, but I'll definitely consider trying to add something like that when I get around to updating UCGO platforms :cheers:
