PTW and volunteering. Send me to the stars. They need to be punched.

[GreatWyrmGold]

It's been about a week since the last update. Enough time for me to bug the OP and remind him I[m still watching?

[QuakeIV]

Probably.  I know him on steam actually, may hit him up there if I see him.

[Djohaal]

I'm on temporary hiatus since:

1: I'll be moving out of parents home

2: In the process I plan on buying a fancy new and better™ computer so I can KSP with more FPS at the minmal base (it is a slideshow atm)

I'm keeping my modbuild and save, so it'll be resumed soon™

[Djohaal]

So I actually bothered to install ubuntu just to feed my modd addiction. Now I have...

UNLIMTED MODS

Some random screenshots of my early-game progress until I get a presentable tech tree and fun stuff to do:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Our very first test launch. Was done with the cool blueprint mod, however I removed it because it caused shader issues...







All these are shots of our Vostok I mission where jeb was the first kerbal to orbit kerbin.



The custom asteroids mod sure spruced up the system

[Djohaal]

Of course not everything is made of sucess...

Glorious re-entry of a failed probe orbit operation

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Our new "mickey" series comm satelites. I've put six of these in random orbits as my delta-V for that launcher wasn't reliable enough



Mickey with last stage doing a park burn.

So apparently they had a centrifuge accident or something. We got a kerbal stuck in orbit.

And my current aero-engineering sucess:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Tinyplane MK II is a sucess and can break mach 1 speeds!

Here's our current satellite constellation

[Djohaal]

Rescue mission to save Ribton Kerman:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Here's Ribton approaching our new koyuz I orbiter. Sadly however I forgot to add RCS. Was a very tricky approach.



Melancholic sight as we detach the service module...

Also I think I overscaled the parachutes _{a tiny bit}

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Here's our Luna I(2) science probe headed to the mun. I argued it'd be more useful in orbit but science department wanted to ram it into the surface even though we had no seismometers deployed. Guess they wanted some fireworks.

Our infernally messy communications network...

The antenna cone from Luna doing its job.

Here's our new NotSoTinyPlane. Managed to break mach 2 with it and we did more surveying missions.



Lemfrey kerman wasn't excited at the whole business tho.

[Djohaal]

Two new missions, the agena docking procedure with a koyuz probe:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

This mission proved to us that a kerbal can sucessfully attach two vessels while in orbit without tearing everything apart like bill did on the James Kerbb space walk:



The telescope itself:



After a sucessful maintenance mission it has caught some stunning images of some planets and muns:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Our guys at R&D have been busy designing a new plane for our brave pilots, as a next step for an orbit-capable plane



We are also deploying polar probes to the mun and minmus:



Next step, manned landing in minmus!

[Djohaal]

Is there some rule against tandem posting when I have so many updates and no one replies? I'm feeling dirty. 

I downloaded astronomer's pack and now KSP looks much prettier... Here's some screenies of Mint I

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Mission goal was to get to minmus and bring a sample back to prove for once and all that it -is- made of mint ice-cream.



We landed at the southern flats.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

After a mission well-done a return and re-entry. Kerbin never looked so pretty!

Jebediah was more than happy to plop the first flag in it and claim a lifetime supply of mint ice cream.

Luna (Muna?) 16

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A badly planned little probe to the mun which I forgot to add batteries, so it only could work while exposed to the sun...



Tight maneuver planning so it'd land BOTH on dayside and under signal coverage from KSC.



Final approach



It tumbled around a bit but made it... Lost almost all the solar panels but it was enough.

BiggerPlane:

Meanwhile our jet plane construction was complete. Performance was great (but I forgot to take more screenshots)

[/spoiler]

Zoology bay expansion to the Kermir station:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Our science station suffered from a slight design mishap, its main structure doesn't branch enough to allow us to plug all the addons we want so freely...



Our design specialists proposed a new six-axis docking section, and tossed in a zoology bay whileso. This is our biggest payload to LKO so far!



Ascent phase. On hindsight the poodle engine was a terrible idea. This thing almost fell back to kerbin before circularizing.



Ribton Kerman was quite pleased with himself after almost experiencing an untimely death with the module failing to reach orbit.



Approaching the already-separated station.



And it fit like a glove!



And here's another Koyuz that was deployed to bring some more crew to the station. Only because kerbin looks so pretty.

I'm sorry but the idea of placing bay12ers as kerbals in my current game is on hold as the mod that allowed renaming kerbals is not updated to  .25... 

Now that I've got a big enough tech tree so interesting stuff can be done, expect more organized mission logs like these.

[QuakeIV]

Neato.

[MarcAFK]

PTW, I love KSP playthroughs. Nice to see you brought this back from the dead, mine is almost a year without an update :s

[Djohaal]

Munar Resource Sat:

Our first test in ion propulsion.

Yay we're in orbit!

Munar landing site and approach:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I particulary liked  this shot, gives a sense of scale of the munar craters.

A small step for a kerbal, a giant leap for all kerbkind!

Now let's get busy!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A pylon...



A chassis?



A packrat!



Beep beep!




Jeb toppled it , but he can fix it...




Steady
Near the crater that is our investigation site.



STEEADY



STEADIER!



jeb's nauseated...



But at least seat eject worked!



Tumbletumbletumble



And jeb's alive! With the samples we need! The packrat didn't fare well and toppled down the crater until it blew up.

Let's get out of this silly face.

Kiubble Space Telescope

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Here's our bigger and more powerful telescope. Which since I'm such a careless operator, peeked directly into the sun and blew up all its optics.



Service mission with another koyuz.



Installing the new CCD.



The koyuz had to fix and service two satelites, so it ran out of delta-V with a periapsis of 60km. Here we see lemfrey kerman giving the orbiter a little pull so they can be home by dinnertime.

Our current satellite and comm constellation.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Our new science module lifter to send some new materials to the Kerbmir.





And here are the new research modules tied up to the station.

Peeks from our test labs:



This design was created by a kerbal that shortly after went insane. His friends reported he chanted "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Kthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn" while no one was looking.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

This spectacular crash happened after we decided to sponsor an unusual lifter for very heavy loads. KSC has commited to a simpler design of an orbital tug to bring the haul to the mun... (coming soon on next episode)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Another incoming design is this heavy 8-thruster ion probe which will explore the Kerbosphere.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Our test labs gladly present the new KB05 - "Hummingbird" nuclear-powered airplane. Running on nuclear fuel this beauty can fly nonstop for a whole year! This will help us to reach those far away anomalies and the scout missions we keep getting.

[Cthulufaic]

At least you wont NOT have satellite coverage XD

[Djohaal]

Sometimes might be hosting on twitch. not too sure

[Graknorke]

Fucking magical.
Also that's a lot of mods. I take it the list in the OP isn't up to date?
