Tyler, FYI, the custom aerodynamic module I made for the Shuttle can be re-used on your Shinkansen as is, of course provided you have the custom fork of FAR to make it work. And another custom module could be cooked up if you have data on what Cl and Cd should be
I do highly recommend you to check out the launch aborts. If you click the red "!" symbol in the top right of the OPS1 GUI you can select how and when you want an engine failure to occur, the program handles it all very well and amazingly and covers all aborts (except for a few contingency aborts).
How did you get your shuttle to go too fast, mine only goes at 2000 meters per second. I also don't know how to use the script when I type "run shuttle" or "run ops1.ks." I get an error by the way I am "ejd582" only on another device
I mean, are you in stock or in Real Solar System? Please refer to this video to install RSS and Realism Overhaul to run the Shuttle the way I do: th-cam.com/video/pxnHSZyqtAI/w-d-xo.html
HI there. I followed your videos and installation precisely, 5 times now, each time with a clean install. I have managed to get everything working as advertised, except KOS. No matter what I do, every time I type run ops1.ks. into the KOS window, nothing happens, except an error. Specifically, it says file 1:/ops1.ks not found. The scripts from Guiliondi Github are in ship/scripts. I am at a loss, although I have never used kOS before, therefore I don't know what to try next. I can launch the shuttle using Mechjeb out of interest but can not land it, it becomes unstable at about 60Kms altitude. Any help or guidance would be very much appreciated. I have been thinking about this shuttle from Guiliodondi for some time and until seeing your videos it has been beyond my skills. would dearly love to get this working if you can help, please. Cheers!
Hi again. So I have been struggling through kOS documentation. I am not a programmer, but have discovered that I can ' switch to 0. ' and then I can run ops1.ks. However, whilst I then get the Space Shuttle OPS 1 GUI as in your video, nothing further happens. The script box, kOS box, that I typed in lists several things and then beeps and stops when trying to call on shuttle_ops1/src/ops1_main-executive. Thus I am convinced that it is either an installation error or some kOS error that is beyond my understanding. I am so close to being able to fly this new KSP instance, please could you point me in the right direction to solve my issue. I should be very grateful. Cheers!
Finally! I did one more clean install, it works!! Not sure why, but OPS1 works now. Aborts work but it still loses control below 30km. More work required here I think. Cheers!!
@@sociedadjaduelimitada5920 Hi. Yes I will try. 1. I made a clean install of KSP with no mods. 2. I installed RO from CKAN. 3. I installed ASET avionics, B9 part switch, KSP Wheel, Community Resource Pack, Textures Unlimited, TAC life support and Waterfall Core from CKAN. 3. I downloaded the 4 items from Guiliodondi's GITHUB, namely Ops1, Ops3, Ferram and the Shuttle. I unzipped/extracted these. I copied ONLY the GameData folders from Ferram and Shuttle and pasted in my KSP root folder, thus adding the files. I copied the Ship folders from Ops1 and Ops3 and pasted them into the root, adding the scripts to Ships. 4. I then added kOS and kOS Ferram from CKAN. Next, I built the shuttle in the extended hangar. There are 2 shuttles, both descriptions are the same. I used the second one when sorted by size if that makes any difference? Made sure I set all the control surfaces as per the readme's from Guiliodondi's GITHUB pages. 100% Pitch, 50% Roll, 50% AOA, 15 deflection and rest to zero. I have made 3 shuttles by rightclicking the bare shuttle in the VAB and choosing the variant. Carefully set the booster nosecone so the separator rockets point towards the ET. Set the fuel flow of the orbiter to less than the fuel flow from the ET, you will see Kerbal Engineer change as you do that. That's it. I launched. On the pad I right click the orbiter and open terminal. Type switch to 0. (Don't forget the . ) then type run ops1. and off it goes as advertised. I have now tried normal orbit insertions, circularising after ET sep. I've tried a few RTLS aborts, a TAL abort and ATO and they all work perfectly. From orbit, I have OMS burned for about 1 minute, on the opposite side of earth, lowering the Pe to about 20km in the sea after KSC, point prograde and FF to atmospheric entry. Set 40 nose up and wait until 122km alt, then open terminal, switch to 0. and run ops3. and every time the shuttles land perfectly, but on the grass a few Kms from the KSC runway. I guess I now have to load the alternate airfields, which I am going to do now. Once running OK I will add the RSS reborn and Blackrack's Volumetric clouds... Good Luck.
Gosh I remember when RO was just RSS and few engines and that was it. It is astonishing what the community has done with this game.

Thanks - I'll have to look into that, then. The reentry profile of it is not what I'd expect right now.
raiz can you
make a video of how to edit the space shuttle launch pad please?

Thank you for the tutorials Raiz, exactly what I needed to get the Shuttle working! Cheers!
bro your mod is the best!

@@robbosls Hello, I had the same problem. Do you think you can explain it better?
