None of the structures seem to be showing up. for example, I've visited where the terraformers on lua should be but they're absent. What could be causing this problem? I'm not running any mods that would prevent them from spawning, and I have all the graphics settings maxed out.

I went to Gateway and i noticed that the ground was not visible. Is this how its supposed to be ? I saw some videos where it had ground. I still cam collide with "nothing" and it has hills. is this fixable?

Anyone have any ideas what's causing this?  I'm having an issue with beyond home where anytime I enter orbit of the tempus system barycenter, I get massive fps drop and the log is spammed with exceptions like this:

[LOG 09:07:47.422] Something went wrong with a quad! System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
  at PQSModExpansion.PQSMod_Subdivide.OnQuadBuilt (PQ quad) [0x00002] in <59a91b1760d141c1a83c20c379e94c09>:0 

This is a fresh 1.11.2 install with beyond home installed with minimal mods through ckan.  I mention the fix for the pink textures below, and it occurs even before making that fix.  This also occurs in my 1.10.1 game file, which was where I first noticed it and has a more extended mod list.  Full log from the 1.11 game is here: KSP.log.  I just cheated a single command pod into orbit.  Happy to try any debugging if anyone has any suggestions.

 

@mszegedy @theleg I had the same issue with the pink textures, running on linux.  I was able to solve it by using the mac shaders instead of linux.  Go to KSP folder, then GameData/Parallax/Shaders/ and rename Parallax-macosx.unity3d to Parallax-linux.unity3d.  The mac and windows shader files are both ~200 kb, but the linux one is only 11 kb.  I don't know enough about unity to know if that points to anything, but I found it odd.

@Gameslinx any updates on when BH will support Parallax 1.2? I can't wait to play around with the new collisions!

No, I "solved" it by switching to Windows. I'm still not sure where the pink comes from. It must be something at the driver level. I don't think I tried it with both Nvidia's driver and Nouveau, just the Nvidia one. But I'm not optimistic.

Did you try this before switching? I haven't tried it, because I have already started a science mode in stock KSP, but if it worked for you, please let me know...

Hello all who may see this post. In my game the solar panels seems to not function properly when Fate is eclipse by Destiny. Even though the binary suns are both suns the panels would indicated "Blocked by Destiny" when Fate circles behind Destiny. This would indicate my solar panels only gather sunlight from Fate and not from Destiny although both are stars and thus should work regardless which star is blocking which. This has made probes extremely unreliable as the eclipse event happens pretty often and they would randomly lose power mid operation, forcing frequent autosaves. Does anyone have any insight on why this is happening and how to solve this?

My game is lightly modded with quality of life in mind, although most of the installed mods do not mess with solar panel operation other than these that i suspect may have to do with it

Seems like this mod might be somewhat broken for 1.11

Edited June 6, 2021 by Jhorriga

[Thatguywholikesionengines]

Can confirm, something's definitely screwy with 1.11. No ground structures here, either.

Edited June 6, 2021 by Thatguywholikesionengines

[Jhorriga]

Did some testing, seems like 1.10 isn't working either

[Thatguywholikesionengines]

What about 1.9? I've tested it in 1.8.1 a while back, everything works perfectly.

I have a question......

In this planet pack, there isn’t a Kerbin, but a Rhode. But how to make it? In my own pack, I tried lots of ways, but I failed.

If I don’t set "!Body[Kerbin] {}", it can be load by Kopernicus, but there is a Kerbin. If I set that, Kopernicus can’t read it.

Here is the beginning part of the .cfg:

Rhode is technically Kerbin to the game.

Same man! I really want it to be updated with KSP 1.12 update and BH 1.6? Maybe?

By the way this is still the same for me. Any ideas how to fix it?

I don't know if you're still playing Beyond Home and my comment is still relevant, but you can go to the Kopernicus Github (make sure you got the latest release installed), look at the assets of the release and download 'MultiStarSolarPanels.cfg'.  Put the file into the 'Config' - folder of Kopernicus. I'm not sure if you have to delete the original 'SolarPanels.cfg' file, so if it doesn't work, remove this and try again.

Hello. I have this issue where terrain scatters will just spawn mid air or sideways, like fallen trees or both. How can i fix this?

KSP version: 1.12

Beyond home: 1.5.2

Kopernikus Planetary System Modifier: 2:release-1.12.1-55

I got it working on Ubuntu, using the LinuxPlayer (not Proton), and KSP 1.12.1.3142. 

Two things:

Be sure to use Parallax 1.0.1; trying to use a more recent Parallax causes other issues.

Edit settings.cfg, and set `UNSUPPORTED_LEGACY_SHADER_TERRAIN = True`.  That fixed the missing and/or magenta textures for me.

It almost works with the latest Parallax, but some of the lighting is a bit wonky.  But the latest Parallax on Windows (or with Proton) is far more broken.

If it didn't change since, you need to install the mod Kerbal Konstructs. Then, the Lua base will be available to unlock with in-game money from the VAB at the top-right button.

On 1.12, the Lua base was already unlocked for me; I didn't pay to use it or anything.  I suspect that's a bug.

hey!

I'm playing beyond home 1.5.0 in 1.12 in carrier mode and I founded some contract bugs: Their are funny, but sometime they are totally impossible. 

idk if it's the right place to repost bugs so excuse me if it's not.

I have screenshots: 

the first one was a repairing contract about a satellite aging around rhode, but around ash the second one was a spash down contrat but on the ash sea (a funny one yes but I don't know if it's normal)

the  last contrat was a satellite contract: but really close and around destiny 

I hope to be useful by posting this.

[Neebel]

Does Beyond Home still work in 1.12?  Based on some reports here it apparently didn't work in 1.11 either

[tom1328732]

I have a strong suspicion that the glitchy terrain on Gateway and other bodies like Kohm is due to changes in Kopernicus. It looks like these buildings are considered terrain scatters, and there have been substantial reworkings on how those are handled since this mod was released.

I tried playing around with ScatterCullDistance and ScatterCleanupDelta to no avail. I had the same behavior in 1.10.2 as well as 1.12.0.

[Kerbals Gallery]

I'm wondering if I can use Beyond Home without Parallax? When I don't have Parallax, I get black squares on the surface of different bodies, but with Parallax everything works fine, but it puts a significant load on my computer and I don't like it.

I have almost the same problem, but for me it happens right away, at Rhode, near the start of the game.

KSP 1.10.1.

BeyondHome 1.4.0, installed via CKAN, telling CKAN to only grab KSP 1.10.x compatible versions of things.

And yes, I have terrain detail on high.

Here's two screenshots:
