Before I found this mod, I used a tutorial for installing visual mods (Astronomer's Visual Pack, etc.), but the tutorial is outdated and the installation process is very complicated. However, I DO think that the various visual mods used in the video look better in some instances that GEA. I really like the simple installation for GEA though, so here are a few aspects I was hoping you could either add into GEA or tell me how I can change my own settings.

  • City Lights on Kerbin (Not sure if it's a setting I have turned off, but I don't see any city lights)
  • Clouds are VERY pixelated when flying through the atmosphere (again, maybe there's a setting I just need to change)
  • GEA isn't compatible with SVT (Stock Visual Terrain), but SVT really helps with the smoothness of the celestial bodies' textures. Maybe add a similar feature?
  • Night side of Kerbin feels too bright

Anyway, please let me know what you think and if any of these issues can be solved by changing my settings. Thanks!

 

You can find city lights in the stock EVE

I'll try to fix night side of Kerbin and pixelated clouds
But full GEA will not be compatible with SVT. You should delete the GRATerrain folder then.

Thanks. So... how exactly do I enable the city lights?

Hey there, thanks for your work, it seems to be pretty darn beautiful. Although I've got huge framerate issues even with an i7-9700K and RTX 2080... Kerbin runway at 10-12fps... Tried to delete lightning.dds and lightningkerbin.dds like you said earlier but it just removed every cloud in Kerbin's atmosphere, and my framerate only got pushed up to around 50fps. I deleted every other graphical mod before installing your package so it shouldn't be a compatibility issue. And I ran tests with a 60ish parts SSTO so this should'nt be a concern either. Any new ideas on how to fix this?

Download EVE
Put the City Lights folder from stock EVE into BoulderCo folder from GEA

I can't find City Lights folder. There is the single file CityLights.dll only in EVE folder.

 

PS
Sorry for Google translate.

I finally upgraded from my potato computer to one with an actual graphics card (hello, sensible frame rates!) and installed GEA.  I love it, but there's one thing I'd like to tweak and I'm not certain where to tweak it...  I'd like to make the oceans/continents on Kerbin a little more visibly distinct (or the atmosphere a bit more transparent).  Which of the included mods is the one I need to work on?

I'm confused, did you change any of the configs? Or is this just a packed up version of just downloading each mod seperately?

I don't know where to report errors, so here i go:

The sky and water is pure white, game version 1.7.2, version of GEA also 1.7.2, GEA Was downloaded from Spacedock

EDIT: I deleted the mod and the effect is still here, i think my KSP has been permenently damaged

@Davian Lin wonderful mod!  I don't suppose you could do a version of this mod with only 4k textures of the following?  

4k & 8k clouds textures for Eve, Kerbin, Duna, Jool and Laythe.
5k lightnings for Eve, Kerbin, Jool and Laythe.
8k auroras for Kerbin, Laythe and Jool.

 

I feel like that would help frame rates quite a bit?

What exactly would we change as I have this request as well.  Or are you suggesting we remove it?

Thanks! :)

I have 2 questions:

1. does GEA Lite have the same performance as https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/150386-12-para-sci-high-performance-atmosphere-pack-v11-27-october-2016/ ?

2. because Scatter and planet shine are bundled( i think) how does this effect planet modders who use those 2 mods for their planets?

I did asked you to delete scatterer from GEA in this situation and download a "stock" scatterer :)

1. I don't think. Because I didn't playing with Sci-fi and checking it
2. Planet shine shows colors of planet on crafts which are turned by inside to the planet, scatterer works on atmosphere scattering and doesn't influences on PS, in my opinion (?..)

I have tried that but I still keep getting a warning  sign for ksp stating that kopernucius has not correctly loaded the custom planet pack due to an exception in the loading process
