Sorry I not understand for the advanced settings. I'm not so good in english and I not understantd if I have to select them in Settings or not ? If yes, where can I do that ?

 

An other thing I not understand in the advanced settings, you set variables for body with the real name or the planet but not for the Earth. You keep the name of "Kerbin". Why ? Just to understand how the mod work in KSP.

 

For Dafni, my sunflare with the version 0.0.3.0 is like this. With a clean install of KSP.

Earth is Kerbin retextured and renamed. It has to be for mods to work and for the game to load.  

Also your sun flare is way too big.

Now its too big, eh? What a life I get the same flare here I believe, just in case you missed my post above. Suddenly the threat lights up too

For the Sunflare I just have the sunflare of your last version. Before I had a GSF mod that I remove. Do you think I need to reinstall KSP ?

For the struts bug, what can I do in your opinion ?

Yes but in your Advanced settings, you keep name of Kerbin instead of Earth. So the both name are working ? In my settings, I can see that and when i select defautl or high, it always revert back to "New Text"

you can select "new text", yes, but you don't have to. KSP wont let me rename the preset.  for the struts bug, you have to be more precise on how you place struts. And yes, Earth is Kerbin. You will see the name Earth on the surface, but in the code, Earth is technically Kerbin.

GSF isn't compatible with SSRSS anymore unless you change the values like i posted in a previous post. You may have to reinstall, just to be sure

[Galileo]

To test and show you what it should look like; I went with a basic install of SSRSS with only the visual mods.

Make sure you are using:
Scatterer v0.0320b
EVE v1.2.2.1
Sigma Dimensions v0.9.1 (v0.9.2 just released and works too)

What your sun flare should look like:

OK I will try to reinstall tomorrow. 00:16 here now in France.

For the struts, I will look with the shuttle designer.

Last point for the advanced settings to understand KSP's working,

If I put :

PRESET
    {
        name = SSRSS
        PLANET
        {
            name = Kerbin
            minDistance = 8
            minSubdivision = 1
            maxSubdivision = 10
        }
        PLANET
        {
            name = Moon
            minDistance = 8
            minSubdivision = 1
            maxSubdivision = 9
        }
        PLANET
        {
            name = Murcury
            minDistance = 8
            minSubdivision = 1
            maxSubdivision = 9
        }

..........

It's like :

PRESET
    {
        name = SSRSS
        PLANET
        {
            name = Earth
            minDistance = 8
            minSubdivision = 1
            maxSubdivision = 10
        }
        PLANET
        {
            name = Moon
            minDistance = 8
            minSubdivision = 1
            maxSubdivision = 9
        }
        PLANET
        {
            name = Murcury
            minDistance = 8
            minSubdivision = 1
            maxSubdivision = 9
        }
       .............

@sylneo yes, Kerbin = Earth. That is how it works with Kopernicus and KSP

*edit* Didn't realise there was another page of discussion  

I suspect the massive sunflare will be related to pre-existing installs of EVE, Scatterer or Dimensions... I'll clean all mine out and start fresh with them, see what happens

Still loving this mod.. Never an issue...  Just checking it to say nothing more than thank you again to @Galileo

@styckx but what does your sun flare look like?  Glad to see you still enjoying it

My sun flare? Oh yeah.. Reading up noticed that's the hot topic huh? Yeah.. It's fine.. Following instructions isn't hard.

 

 

[Dafni]

I got it now. Sigma was the culprit. I was pretty convinced I downloaded a fresh version when 0.0.3.0 dropped, like I did for all other dependencies on that day. Thanks for the help everybody.

[styckx]

It's really amazing when you think about what Kerbal started out as graphics wise..

Then...  We're up to this...  Developers don't get enough credit for their hard work.. Which is a hobby. They take an insane amount of abuse, an insane amount of unwarranted self importance, insane demands, and dealing with people who don't read.  So.. The few times I do post on here..  It's to say thanks and not poodle and complain... Because unfortunately..  80% poodle and demand, 20% just say thank you.

 

My own recording using SSRSS and a few other mods...  When you read, and follow instructions.. You can dream the day away in a false reality of perfection..   This is what Kerbal is and always will be about.. Escaping... And dreaming...

Sigma was also the problem for me. I had 0.9.0. Now in 0.9.2. It's better for the sunflare. Thanks at all

I absolutely love the video, and the kind words.

I always get this guilty feeling when I receive any kind of praise. I stand on the shoulders of others, and while I did put hundreds, if not thousands of hours into mods, Nothing I have created would be possible without them. Blackrack/Waz/Rbray/Thomas P...etc etc. They are the real MVP's.  They definitely don't get the love they deserve.

Oh I know.. Believe me.. Just didn't feel like writing a tl;dr post.   But yes.. Most modders are modders because they're modding other peoples mods and took guidance from other modders.. Rinse repeat.  Trickle down affect.. etc..

I must have missed this. I'm really glad you got it working! Yeah, that can be confusing. As of SD v0.9.2, It now handles the task of scaling of sun flares its self. Because SSRSS is unlike most scaled system, as it shrinks instead of grows, I had to make the scale of the sunflare REALLY big so SD would scale it correctly. Not having the correct version of SD would cause it to be HUGE like you saw. Well, this is a learning experience for me and now I know what the solution could be if someone else reports this issue. So thanks for being the guinea pig!

You are welcome!

Again many thanks for the help and for all the work on this lovely mod, I appreciate it a lot. It really is an amazing mod, big kudos to all, you, dependency devs etc.

[KERBALINA]

I have Scatterer installed but it is not working. I am only getting the box at the start. Is there something I have to press to turn it on to make it work?

I have the latest version.

Edited September 6, 2017 by KERBALINA

[sylneo]

Do you have SSRSS 0.0.3.0 ? It seems to me the old version weren't compatible with the last version of scatterer.

[Dafni]

Hey @Galileo, I have not been to Venus in the latest 2 ssrss patches, and now I am wondering if we still have this pressure problem? (venus surface pressure exceeds the pressure limit of the stock KSP parts) I´m just asking to spare me the frustration of going there and finding out the hard way again.

And if the problem still persists, do you see an easy fix? I understand Venus is hard, and it should be, but not impossible please. At least for probes.

Thanks in advance

I haven't changed it, so the problem still exists. You can either change the pressure curve values or just remove the curve for the time being. Maybe @OhioBob can cook up a new pressure curve for SSRSS, with his knowledge of all things curves  

[OhioBob]

I would be easy enough to reduce the surface pressure and redo the curves.  I didn't know parts had a pressure limit.  What is it?

I think it's depends on the part, and not a global value. You can turn off or on the parts failing from pressure in the advanced difficulty settings.

I can change Venus' surface pressure, but then it wouldn't be Venus anymore.  If that's what we want to do, I need somebody to tell me what to change the pressure to because I don't have the time to figure that out.

Alternatively, maybe we could mod the parts to increase their max setting.  Of course I have no idea what I'm looking for.  I don't see anything in the cfgs that indicates part pressure limits.

Of course the easiest thing to so if somebody doesn't want their parts to implode is just turn off the setting.  Seems like a good enough solution to me.
