[1.9.1 - 1.10.x] Beyond Home 1.5.0 (Supports Parallax)

[Kjonde564]

Hello just curious, are there any plans to update After Kerbin and Before Kerbin to 1.8.1?

 

I tested both in their current versions on 1.8.1 After Kerbin loads but the sun has no glow or rays, and Before Kerbin has no atmospheres and some planets have the wrong textures. (I was using EVE and Scatterer on both.) if you have no plans to update these that’s ok. I’m just curious if you did or not o-o

Most likely you're running out of RAM.

i dont think it that, becuse i still have over 5GB of ram for it to use cuz ksp when loading only uses 4.6 GB. i also get lots of "[ERR 17:24:04.817] Mismatched serialization in the builtin class 'GameObject'. (Read 15 bytes but expected 75 bytes)" in the KSP.Log file take a look

I have a busy schedule, unfortunately. I have university to worry about, and my focus has shifted away from those mods to this one and YouTube. I may revisit them at some point but I have no plans to for the near future

Back again, this time wondering about Kerbol contracts. In a typical career game, do you go to the Kerbol System?

Will It Run "Astronomers Visual Pack" ?

Beyond home comes with its own visuals, so it does not support AVP.

Install EVE, Scatterer, and Sigma Skybox alongside BH to use it's visuals.

This mod looks awesome and i found it by watching some of your youtube videos Linx, but I had a few questions regarding the mod I hope you wont mind answering. 

Is it supported for things such as Scansat? 

Does it have resources on the planets for mods like MKS or WBI?

And the terrain textures of the planets I havent had a chance to get too close a look to them yet but how do they compare to the stock system? Are they more towards the newer high detail textures like the Mun and Duna? Or moreso like the older KSP planet textures?

I've not used Scansat before but I have been told it works fine!

Planet resources for MKS / WBI haven't been manually distributed so it could be possible they will randomly spawn, but I advise caution and I can't guarantee any will spawn at all.

The terrain textures use the new shader added in 1.8, and every planet has very high quality terrain textures for their surfaces. Every planet and moon uses these. Make sure your shader quality and terrain quality are set to high

SCANsat simply works. There is no "I need compatibility" thing here. Install Waypoint Manager as well and you'll be asking loudly why you've been clinging to KerbNet.

If you simply install Community Resource Pack or WBI Classic Stock you will get (typically randomized) resource distributions on every planet. There is no "I need compatibility" thing here either, except when you reach the point of the few resources that are only configured for the stock planets which no longer exist when you install Beyond Home.

If you install Rational Resources alongside CRP or WBI then the resources get curated:

manually distributed

to fit certain basic expectations of each world, and mining becomes more interesting and challenging (less Ore presence is the main thing)... (If you use MKS or Karbonite, you will find yourself missing a few resources, those seen as "irrational" like Karbonite itself, Karborundum, and Dirt. But you get more of the resources necessary for life support (namely Kerbalism) and non-stock rocketry like hydrolox and methalox, and several concept rocketry standards (CO2 NTR; hybrid metal/LOX SRB;), and more opportunities to mine resources (the oceans, atmospheres and exospheres have a lot to them).

You get a related experiment added too, and it's more worth your while to go into low orbit of a star, especially including the ones added by Beyond Home. This screenshot highlights the potential of Lua, the first moon you'll want to visit. Home of the "Lua base" that Linx will often speak of.

Spoiler

Sorry for the shameless promo again, Linx. Please don't put me out the airlock. xD

Thank you for the information, from what Ive seen this mod adds just what KSP was lacking a sense of looking for things! I am very excited to try it out!

I see, I see. So all of the "regular" resources will be randomly distributed normally like in a stock solar system with CRP, but things such as Karborundum or water would have to be manually added into the CRP?

Thanks for the info and yea, never been a fan of the kerbnet tbh.

All of the "regular" resources, yes. Water is among these (not with Karborundum) and has a 20% chance to appear in very large amounts nearly everywhere (including the lava oceans). Karborundum (and the others like it, within CRP and typically end-game sci-fi rocket propellants) will need to be manually placed where you want. Rational Resources fixes the Water/Lava issue and handles a few of those end-game propellants: Antimatter, LH2, LqdDeuterium, LqdHe3 to be exact. If you have more resource questions bring them to that mod's thread. I've hijacked this one enough.

Is there a specific Config file that needs to be used, or is it plug and play with EVE? Sorry, I'm always having trouble with EVE, even after 400 hours in KSP lol.

 

Also,

I absolutely cannot figure out how to install this mod. I've tried just dropping the folder in the Gamedata folder, I've tried using CKAN, I've tried a mix of both, all to no avail. I tried finding some more thorough installation instructions, but I've been unable to find any information at all, on how to install it. Any advice or guide, would be deeply appreciated (and might include a donation)!

[Yuri kagarin56]

Another question I hope you wont mind answering Linx, it says on the front page their is an option to launch from the moon. Is this accessible at start or do you unlock it through the tech tree?

It`s unlocked through credits. You need Kerbal Konstructs installed for it to appear.

Install instructions are near the bottom of the OP or can be found on the github near the bottom here: https://github.com/Gameslinx/BeyondHomePlanetMod/blob/master/README.md

Provided you're using Windows, Beyond Home comes with an install checker which will tell you during the loading screen what you've done wrong if you have installed it wrong, as well as what other things you might be missing.

It is just plug and play with EVE and Scatterer, just install them alongside BH and they will work fine

As said above, if you have Kerbal Konstructs installed you can unlock the base from the VAB/SPH editor by clicking the Kerbal Konstructs button at the bottom right, selecting the Lua base and unlocking it with credits.

So I booted the mod up and I love the quality but for some reason im not getting clouds? Ive got both Scatterer and eve and both have their toolbars coming up but no clouds.

 

 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/dh5ix1xf1nq0ur0/output_log.txt?dl=0

for the logs. Any help would be much appreciated hopefully I can get clouds.

 

 

EDIT: Im stupid and forgot to remove the last bits of my Astronomers visual pack. All good now. 

 

Perhaps someone can help me with this though

Ive got this weird line in the middle of my screen and it will follow my view when scrolling in or out, very annoying is there any way to fix this? Seems to be giving odd pixelated textures too.

Hi there, I've downloaded the mod and honestly, it's probably the best planet pack mod I've seen on KSP so far.

I've started a career but I'm hesitant to continue it because after I've achieved orbit, I've noticed that the contracts are still the same stock KSP contracts, with the next contracts I have being "visit the Mun" and Minmus and what not. Is there something I'm missing? Or is this not designed to be played with career? I'd appreciate any info, thanks

That's an artifact of scatterer, and the pixelated textures are a bug with KSP's 1.8 terrain shader - It's fixed on 1.9, but we're waiting for Kopernicus to update

You must be using contract configurator. If you use contract mods you will get the stock contracts. This is absolutely designed for career mode

Ahh, thank you for the quick response, will try without it

I get some very strange squares, when I visit the moons. The squares doesn't appear on Rhode nor in map view.

I assume that they are also the fault of old Kopernicus, or is it something else?

Also, you've cropped out your UI which helps me even less
