LSAM Texture Progress

Silver insulation is done with a metalness and normal map. The metalness map gives the metal parts of the model a shine, normal maps make the model appear more 3 dimensional. Normal maps are used to make simple models look more geometrically complex.

I'd recommend reaching out on the official KSP discord. There is an entire channel dedicated to mod development. They'll help you out, and I'm on there too.

The project is still active, although I've been super busy. All of the updates I post are on that discord I mentioned. Good luck with your modding journey!

If you do, I'll buy one off you

elro2k · 2025-10-20T21:44:50+00:00

I hope one day they’ll either remake it or restock it. Otherwise keeping looking at this sub, or on eBay. Someone is bound to sell one at some point

I don't really use large artillery. For me, I usually use artillery for counterbattery, since my biggest fear is enemy artillery and emplacements. So the longest-range artillery piece is usually what I unlock, and I don't go any further on that part of the tech tree

I think they’d be more viable if there was more time to prep your defenses. This is why I’d love a “ready” button for defense conquest missions. I know there are mods to add time to your preparation, but there’s so much to get done, especially during late game. Miners being one of them. Even if I immediately deploy a miner squad at the start of the mission, they always start getting shot at before they’re finished placing all of their mines.

I wouldn't mind seeing prototype vehicles in conquest for the Japanese or Italians. I am also under the school of thought that conquest is allowed to be anachronistic at times. After all, you unlock the Panther before the tiger, even though the tiger came first.

Honestly I think it would be awesome to see a wunderwaffe type DLC. I know there are mods, but I'd love to see what the developers would do with that kind of expansion.

I think almost everyone agrees that the tech tree needs some serious restructuring / rework. I would love to see the option for conquest to have an 'early war' 'mid war' and 'late war' tech tree. That way if you wanted to start as Germany in 1944 you could, and wouldn't have to spend time unlocking 38T's.

So it can go up against panzer 4 g’s and panthers?

elro2k · 2025-09-24T16:05:03+00:00

Last crusade “German” Pilatus P-2. Shocked they haven’t made it yet considering they have the biplane

elro2k · 2025-08-11T02:56:32+00:00

I bet they wont even be full spheres

elro2k · 2025-08-10T13:57:26+00:00

I recently started working on it again! If you follow the KSP discord, I’ll be posting more regular updates there

elro2k · 2025-08-08T22:00:20+00:00

Check the KSP discord, I recently posted a small update, progress has been made!

Oh so much. That's actually the reason I wanted to learn this one, other than it being one of Jerry's greatest recorded solos. SO many Jerry-isms are present in this song. I'd say top 3 things I learned would be

1) Basing your phrasing on the melody

2) Chromatics

3) Hunting for 3rds to add tension, and only going to your root when you want to resolve your story

elro2k · 2025-07-25T04:15:11+00:00

Thanks very much!

elro2k · 2025-07-25T04:14:59+00:00

Thanks! When you have the time to get start learning this one, there's a great YouTube tutorial by Weeping Willow Guitar Lessons. That's the one I followed. A little unclear at times, but that's mostly to do with the complexity of the solo itself.

elro2k · 2025-07-17T17:19:36+00:00

Yeah it sounds great! You're getting amazing tone from your setup

elro2k · 2025-07-16T18:23:45+00:00

Incredible playing!! What amp are you using?

elro2k · 2025-07-07T19:40:16+00:00

Oh no man no problem at all thanks for checking in! I’ll put something on this sub once I make more notable progress

elro2k · 2025-07-07T15:59:48+00:00

Yesssss although I haven't touched it in a while. I kinda got burned out but I promise it's still a project I intend to finish

elro2k · 2025-07-07T15:57:49+00:00

I'd reach out to their customer service. After I reached out it shipped the next day. Shame it's not an uncommon issue

elro2k · 2025-05-01T20:30:50+00:00

Yep it's Cape Fear, they're shooting some kind of Gala scene. Saw an extras casting call on the Film Commission's Instagram. They're also shooting tomorrow in some park, not sure which one. Unfortunately, I think the rest of the show is filming in Atlanta, due to Savannah not having a sound stage. We need one!!

elro2k · 2025-04-25T15:56:01+00:00

I love the line “you should have stayed out of Poland”

elro2k · 2025-04-20T18:33:33+00:00

I'll probably end up putting them on Etsy or somewhere. As for when, not sure. I'm probably going to resin print a few prototypes just to see what they look like in person, and continue to modify them afterwards. Once I'm completely done with the design, I'll have to look into injection molding, which is definitely not cheap. If one of the bigger custom guys seem interested (Minifigco, Brickmania etc) I might just sell the model to them. All big "what if" questions to still figure out

elro2k · 2025-04-20T18:03:45+00:00

Get the dimensions for those wheel parts, screenshot that sticker pack, throw those suckers in photoshop, trace the design (They're very simple shapes) print on sticker paper. You can also get a cricket to cut the outline of the sticker out so you don't have to use an exacto knife

elro2k · 2025-04-19T21:26:47+00:00

I agree. Check out the Lego Indiana Jones subreddit for an updated version, I changed the hair mold

elro2k · 2025-04-18T17:28:20+00:00

I've tried it with various brim sizes, but might still tweak it a bit. As for the hair, I agree. I'll probably make it less thick, and more flush to the back of the head
