Here's one for you Andy44 :)

I've just uploaded to Orbithangar an early release of my Jupiter V-X launcher.

haha, Andy's not the only one that wants this. Nice one! I'm actually too busy this weekend to try it out, but I shall take a gander next week. What's it's max lift weight atm?
 
Now strap 4 of these to something bigger. :P

Pretty soon you'll be able to adjust the Moon's orbit.

Outstanding job, AndyMc!

TLI successful:

I also launched my LEO station with no problems to report, except that the fairing isn't wide enough to encompass the centtrifuge.

If anyone wants to make wider fairings for the Jupiter family of rockets, it would be appreciated.

Now I can launch all of my addons using current or future tech launchers based on shuttle hardware. Big thumbs up.
 
Unfortunately, the launcher's raw power seems too much for my compu---, um... dinosaur. It loads fine, but CTD's every time I try to light the engines.

Here's orbiter.log:

Finished setting up render state
 
With the 730 mT Jumbo Tanker, the rocket burns out of fuel just before making a 200km orbit. The tanker has to use its own engine to complete the insertion. I suppose I will have to try for a lower orbit, say 170 km or so. On my first try the rocket stage re-enters over Africa.

I have noticed that this thing is hard on my aging computer during launch, but it seems to speed up a bit after SRB sep. Not much of a problem, really, it looks beautiful, but if my machine were any slower it might be a showstopper.
 
Just to clarify:
I must download the Crew Transfer Vehicles v0.96.
In there it state that I also must download and install Francis Drakes CEV add-on.
And in Cargo Transfer Vehicles v0.95 is an addition to the Crew Transfer Vehicle add-on - CTV-02-A-v 0.96, which must be installed prior to this.
What is the order of installment?
Sorry if I bother too much, but I want to get the full expierence with your super add on.

Francis Drakes CEV is used in some of the scenarios of my 'Crew Transfer Vehicles v0.96' add-on. You don't actually need it for this add-on.

As for the rest of your question, from my faded memory, and looking at the Add-on descriptions on Orbithangar, I would install the files as follows:

1. Crew Transfer Vehicles v0.96 + Francis Drakes 'ESAS CEV'
2. CTV-Update 070122 - + Francis Drakes 'Pegasus - Ares Lander'
3. Cargo Transfer Vehicles v0.95
4. Jupiter V-X

Good Luck :)
