Help with my planet (Scatterer and EVE Clouds)


TheKurgan

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I decided late last night that I was going to learn to make a planet for my own personal learning and enjoyment. I finally decided I was going to make a planet with the same size, gravity and atmospheric traits as Kerbin, and I later decided to make it with textures and the heightmap of Earth (and I added the Moon) It took me the better part of the night and all day today to plagiarize the CRAP out of bits of RSS and a little from Galileo's configs... Well, I figured it all out and got it working exactly the way I wanted it.

My question is, Although I have Scatterer and EVE clouds working, can I get it working without editing, or adding, files to scatterer or EVE? Can I do an MM patch that adds Earth to the Planet list and adds my cloud settings to EVE? Is it so simple that I am missing it? I know some mods like Kopernicus, you can use @Kopernicus:AFTER[Kopernicus] Can you do @Scatterer:AFTER[Scatterer] or am I talking nonsense now? lol

I want my planet to be completely sef-contained.

Unfortunately scatterer does not work correctly for MM yet. 

EVE is also kind of hard to set up. This is why SVE doesn't use MM :wink: 

congrats on your planet!

@Galileo Thanks, you helped me ALOT ya know! I went through your Gael cfg file to learn a lot about how to make it work.... Gael was one of the only planets I could find that was close to what I wanted to do.

I might have copied snippets of your cfg file... hope thats ok? I'm not distributing the planet.

It's all good. I don't mind people cannibalizing my cfgs. It's really just the textures I'm worried about

No sir, I didn't touch your textures... I mainly stole your atmosphere and temp curves... because that was driving me insane lol.

I think I got the terrain height and water level pretty good... I used my home province of Newfoundland and it's surrounding small islands to gauge it.

The Rocky Mountains are a little pointy maybe, but hey it's my first try :)

One weird thing happens though, when I load the game, and go into the tracking station, for a split second it shows my Earth, then switches to Kerbin...

but Exist a Mod With Earth,Real Solar System

Yes, there is. But I don't want to change my whole solar system completely... I want to leave the stock stuff exactly the way it is and add onto it. 

I have OPM installed, and I wanted to make a replica of earth just out past Jool, I wanted earth to have the same atmosphere, size and gravity as Kerbin without using Sigma Dimensions or another method of resizing a planet... other than through it's config file.

This isn't a mod I am going to distribute, I have plagiarized WAY too much code from Galileo and other modders to distribute it... this is for my own learning and pleasure.

and I think I have accomplished it.

Thanks for your help guys.
