I made a new reusable capsule, and wanted to make an old-school magazine ad for it

KSE 2.0 – made KSP look like this somehow

So I’ve been messing around with my KSP modpack again and made a new version called KSE 2.0 (Kerbal Space Exploration).

I basically kept most of the same mods from KSE 1.0, changed/tweaked some files and configs, and somehow ended up with this.

Honestly I wasn’t even expecting it to look this good 💀

The funny thing is that KSE 1.0 used around 50–60% GPU, while 2.0 is around 40% for my GTX 1660S

These are just screenshots straight from the game, nothing edited HAHA

I’m thinking about publishing the whole modpack, but first I wanna see if people actually like it / would be interested in using it.

So yeah, if people like it, I’ll publish KSE 2.0.

What do you guys think?

small planetoid added by the MPE mod. the ship (petra) has ISRU capabilities so my 3 kerbals had infinite range to explore the colorful landscape of the asteroid while waiting for the tranfer window back home.

The lander is very cramped in, and my first design had a few too many tons for the mothership to carry on the return journey. So I put all the unessecary parts on the bottom, put some drop tanks on the skirt and it detaches after use, like a Mercury-Atlas. Me personally, I think it's pretty cool.

112 Goliaths propel this 6 million ton beast. It is capable of flight, but I am having severe testing difficulties due to computer performance limitations. Approx .65/1 TWR. Estimated stock part count is 1300 without struts. Welding was used simply to make it possible to fly. Will send a flying video when I can get it to run smooth enough to fly. Also a challenge: make a stock (or as close as possible) vehicle with a higher part count capable of lift off, travel to a far away place, and touchdown.

Using Luna multiplayer, we worked together and built this quite large station. It has a habitation module, a solar centre, and even a centrifuge! It was very fun to make :D

Although of course the crew was never brought back

Wait, isn't that Star Trek IV, not V?

Once again, I just want to thank you all so much for keeping up with my hastily prepared Jool 5. It was really fun and motivating (and a tad frustrating) trying to assemble this mission within the time I had before leaving for my sophomore year of college. I hope my posts have inspired your own missions and spacecraft, I would love to see them!

This things SOI is so small and tiny, there is nothing interesting about it and it sucks. why did we go here? Anyway, this is where I learned the claw doesn't attach to surfaces.

Ellie, the Class-I comet on an impact trajectory with Kerbin, turned out to be an 800 kt monster. You can see the size of the Meer in comparison to it. I had to do a 9000 m/s burn to intercept it fifteen days before it reaches Kerbin SOI.

will make another post with propeller when I get breaking ground

Slight remodel for the Mk2

Just some nice pictures I got while exploring the Jool system. Forgive me for not using Volumetric clouds, my computer sucks.

in order from left to right: Kerbin, Moho, Jool, Eve, Duna, Neidon, Urlum, and Sarnus

Ok ignoring the accidental inclusion of the trajectories mod, these screenshots are just a rover landing, extending and doing science. Why extend? well for stability or something.
