Only Eve?

[GarrisonChisholm]

Good morning everyone.  I have started a new 1.22 game (going to wait for teething trouble observations before 1.3) and as expected EVE just slogs my potato PC to a crawl, so I am playing without clouds.  However, before I try to get to Eve I thought I would ask; has anyone heard of a mod for ONLY Eve?  Landing on Eve (the OPM Triton analog too I guess [name escapes me]) would be so much more mysterious and exciting if there were dense clouds there, but I can't abide the slow down for Kerbin operations that come from EVE,

Is there a possibility for an Only Eve EVE?...

You would just need to delete everything from the cloud cfg in the boulderco file and only leave the Eve node.

Thank you!  I will give that a go, and hope it doesn't still slow down my fps (I don't see any reason why it should).

[Galileo]

Well, it will around Eve, especially in the atmosphere when the volumetric clouds are rendered.

*nods*  I understand, but I can endure that for 6-8 missions.  I am already dealing with a 12 minute trip to orbit taking 2 hours, so as long as it is "clear" around Kerbin it should be bearable around Eve for the thrill of discovery.

Neidon's moon Thatmo?  

Have you installed this? Maybe it gives Thatmo some clouds.

Thank you also!  If I can get clouds on Eve I will count it a major success, and then I will look into that OPM mod for further endeavors.  I may just try Para-Sci High Performance for EVE and see if that is usable for my paperweight first, and resort to hacking EVE's cloud configs if that is still an unplayable step for me.
