[1.12.x] Minimum Ambient Lighting Updated


linuxgurugamer

Recommended Posts

Forum user @Red3Tango made this mod about 5 years ago.  He hasn't been around since August, and this mod hasn't been updated in nearly a year.  Original thread is here: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/61425-12x-17x-minimum-ambient-lighting-v124/

 

I've adopted it and made some significant improvements, see below

Are you a streamer or make videos and its too dark?

Here is your answer! A small plugin that will set a minimum ambient lighting level based on percentage. Percentage is modified by using the toolbar icon (or though config file)!

Don't like cluttering your Toolbar?

You can disable the button from the Flight scene, or completely disable in the config file. (this does not disable the mod, just the icon)

Does this wash out the colors when the in-game lighting is already high?

Nope! The mod does NOT indiscriminately raise the existing ambient lighting, it ONLY sets what the minimum value can be.

Note: This mod will only limit the minimum ambient light of a scene. Using other mods (or the Ambient Boost slider in 1.3), adjusts the overall ambient light of the game.

KSP 1.8.1, fresh installed yesterday, plus mods. So far that behavior was in KSC, map mode, flight mode.

Nothing conspicuous in the log files.

Maybe a mod conflict? Older dll-mods installed:

Final Frontier, Hyper Edit, Texture Replacer, Trajectories, Transfer Window Planner.

Edit: This is not a bug. I had a mod conflict between Minimum Ambient Lighting and PlanetShine. I'll leave this up for anyone with a similar problem.

I'm getting a crash with 1.8.1 @linuxgurugamer

Mod List:

Click Through Blocker
Toolbar
Antenna Helper
B9PartSwitch
BetterSRBs
CommunityResourcePack
CustomPreLaunchChecks
DeplorableEngines
DistantObject
DynamicBatteryStorage
EnvironmentalVisualEnhancements
KerbalKonstructs
Koprenicus
MechJeb2
ModularFlightIntegrator
NavyFish
NearFutureAeronatics
NearFutureExploration

ProceeduralFairngs
RealPlume
RealPlume-Stock
ReStock
RestockPlus
SCANsat
Sigma
SmokeScreen
StationPartsExpansionRedux
StationPartsExpansionMetal
TweakScale
WildBlueIndustries

All the mods are the 1.8.X compatible versions. The game continues to load forever, with the background changing, with the error that Mods DLL are not compatible with this version of KSP.

I doubt it's Minimum Ambient Light 1.2.5.3 being the culprit here, I'm using this mod with this very version with KSP 1.8.1, works w/o any issue.

As per your mod list, you're using, amongst other mods, Plant Shine, as far as I know, both mods are not compatible with each other, see here:

"Conflicts with other mods that change ambient light, such as Ambient Light Adjustment and AmbientLightShifter"
