Nhawks17 Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Does anyone know if the texture we see for Jool (aka the "clouds") in stock is game engine speaking Jool's surface or can you go below the texture? I've never actually visited Jool with a craft in my actual gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what's going on there at face value, come to think of it. Try and hyperedit a ship there, see if you can make any sense of it.

I'm thinking about looking into removing the stock texture as it causes visual artifacts when zoomed out from the planet. Plus there's no need for it to be there if I can remove it without it breaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sashan Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 I think I'm getting there...http://i.imgur.com/YzOK1o3.pngThat's just awesome. I'd suggest making those streaks on dark belts brighter, like in previous pic tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I was wondering. Nevermind then I'll see if I can find another way to fix the artifacts.- - - Updated - - -This is what the clouds look like when they move. I personally love it. There's still a lot of stuff I need to fix as you probably can see throughout the clip but I'm getting closer and closer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sashan Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Awesome. I guess it isn't possbile to make central belt rotate faster without introducing additional 4096 texture?Also, speeds of each stripe need further adjustment. Center and other small belts should rotate at the highest speed, while that background texture should rotate at much slower speed. Coriolis force in actipn. Currently you have it reversed. Here's a nice anim with Jupiter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:PIA02863_-_Jupiter_surface_motion_animation_1fps.ogv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll adjust the speeds as thats easy to do but I'm not going for 100% real life here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I'd suggest a few layers of volumetric clouds for those who like to drop probes on chutes down there. No need to bother with new textures, just use Eve texture and put it under all others so it's almost invisible from orbit.

NAMROG Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 You are seriously the sexist mod out there right now. I've been having fun mixing your mod as a paste-over of astronomer's to fill in the places you haven't got to yet. Your mod is so ...., yet so much lighter.Okay so it is the actual planet.

Poodmund Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 After watching the stream broadcast I would say to be careful not to make the planets/moon too glow'y. I think a lot of visual packs do this for a wow factor when it isn't really necessary. I'm all for a slight, small banded glow to soften the... edge terminator (?) lines between the planet and backdrop of space but it shouldn't really be too soft.I mean, I just Googled some of the planets and they don't glow unless they are eclipsing the sun but do have soft edges in cases. What are your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree, the glow wasn't finished I just wanted to mess around with the rings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poodmund Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) Yeah the atmosphere glow:Thats taken from the stream footage. If you compare it to say, some of the DISCOVR shots taken of Earth, you don't really see a pronounced glow: Link. It depends how life like you want them to look in any case. As an aside note, I think the glow you have on Kerbin above is not too bad, maybe a tad strong for me, but its not overly done.

The atmosphere settings are also really finicky in the first place but maybe I'll do that when I stream next so I can get live feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joco223 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) Can someone help me with this problem?http://imgur.com/a/7dmHBI installed latest version of EVE Overhaul, Distant Object and Planet Shine. And i have some additional part mods. I have tried every pack of this mod UR, HR, MR, LR and every single one of them looks like this. I'm running 64-bit workaround for KSP on windows because i try to make my KSP as beatuiful as possible and some part mods along side. I really like your mod and i would like to fix this problem. Keep up with this mod because its better than every other graphical mod for KSP that i have seen --Update--And im not running in DirectX 11 mode as you said it breaks a lot of stuff Edited November 8, 2015 by Joco223 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
