Project Atlas ICBM development

[MJR]

Here is the newly configured mesh and configuration file.

 

[MJR]

What do you think about it now?

Good morning gentlemen,
For Mr. MJR, I found some more bugs. For one, the particle stream is very big. The rocket is still hovering above the pad, too. Here are some more screenshots from orbit:

Here are some pictures of what it should look like:

Again, I hope these can help you with the mesh. But it still looks a-ok!

 

[MJR]

Tomorrow I will edit the particle stream, and the COG. For the rocket itself, the details that the diagrams show will take some time. Maybe a week or so. The other bugs like the transparent meshes can be fixed easily. I will start on that part tomorrow. Thanks.

 

[Star Voyager]

Good morning gentlemen,
For Mr. MJR, I would be happy to supply more info. I can't wait to see it with the textures.

 

[MJR]

Yeah. It will be pretty good after everything has been completed.

I have an updated mesh coming up soon. The only part that I have not fixed yet is the fins. I still have to close up the bottom of both fins.

Here it is. Tomorrow I will make it to a multistage2 vessel so that the warhead is able to free fall after jettison.

 

[MJR]

Does it fit in the silo?

 

[astrosammy]

I'll try it now.

Ok, it fits now, currently the only problem is that the rocket is oval.

 

[MJR]

Crap. Where is it oval at? I thought I fixed it, but I guess not.

 

[astrosammy]

Here:

 

[MJR]

I see. I have been working on it for about 30 minutes fixing that and making it into the multistage. I am about 85% done. I should have a second beta up today.

 

[MJR]

Here is beta 2. Before you guys tell me, I know that the launcher is hollow after jettison. I will fix that in Beta 3. I have too much on my shoulders right now. Tell me how you like it.

By the way, how are you coming along with the base?

 

[Star Voyager]

Good morning gentlemen,
For Mr. MJR, The ICBM is coming along nicely. The particle stream is still too big, though and the focus on the warhead is a little bit off, too. And the bottom is smaller than the rest of the rocket. But other than that, it's looks a lot like the picture.

 

[MJR]

I can fix all those in about 10 minutes. THe focus though is what is bothering me. I think I know how to fix it, but not really.

I got all of that covered except for the focusing on the warhead.

 

[Star Voyager]

Good morning gentlemen,
For Mr. MJR, I'm glad that these are not major issues. I am anxious to see the next beta.

 

[MJR]

How is it from 1-10 for the beta? Are you sure that it is good?

 

[Star Voyager]

Good morning gentlemen,
For Mr. MJR, I would give the beta a 7. It looks like an ICBM, and with textures, it will be interesting to see. There are bugs, but like you said, they will not be difficult to fix. On the mesh, by the way, will the black part remain black?

 

[MJR]

Here is the finished beta 2. I figured out how to fix the focusing problem on the warhead.

 

[Star Voyager]

Good morning gentlemen,
For Mr. MJR, on my Orbiter, the focus is still off, plus there is a space between the warhead and the rocket. And it still has a BIG particle stream. Here are some pictures:

I hope this helps.

 

[MJR]

Sorry. Let me fix that. I got side tracked.

The updated beta will be uplaoded shortly.
