[1.9-1.12.x] EVE-Redux: Performance-enhanced EVE + maintenance (v1.11.7.1 - 09/09/2022)

Alright, thanks. So i will bookmark this thread to be up-to-date concerning the great works around EVE. As a guy on a weaker engine (only a gtx 1060 6gb) I highly value this performance focussed Eve-branch.

 

As 1.12 concerns: I will wait to upgrade to 1.12 until Eve Redux, Spectra and Waterfall are up-to-date. And this will take as long as it takes. Didn't mean to implicate hurry. Just wanted to know, if this is the place to be, to get the hottest Eve-stuff in the future.

I don't know if this has already been reported; (but I inform everyone of it).
I have been organizing all the mods that I have, but, while changing my visual mods, I noticed that EVE does not effect the clouds.

This is my GameData folder, and my KSP version is 1.10

Before BoulderCo remove it, but to my knowledge EVE and Scatterer are enough to have a visual enhancement (no SVE, AVP or others)

Clouds with height!!!!???!?!

That's exactly what you think it is. This is in unity editor but the end goal is ksp of course

the particles have been acting a little wonky but dear Kraken that's not the fix I was expecting! You and your shader wizardry again.

I would have never guessed that I will live long enough to actually see somebody try to apply a proper cloud shader to KSP. I sure hope you will succeed, it will be absolutely phenomenal.

can you test this fix?

updating files now.

UPDATE:
I've installed  Scatterer v0.0770 and the new plugin DLLs for EVE and can confirm that city lights are working again. Thanks very much!

how do you use EVE Redux without scatterer? whenever i try to install it with ckan nothing happens

You are using a EVE pack, right? Examples are Spectra, AVP. Or if you're using a planet pack, then it would come seperately or with the mod.

This is an answer for questions in the future, about Boulder Co and OPM, there are no texture files, nor settings for that mod.

If you want clouds for the OPM planets, you can go with AVP, or SVE (with the case of SVE I already discussed it in the thread). And maybe there is one hanging around there, but most likely it is very outdated and the links are ... just useless. 

The best thing would be if @blackrack may agree with @Poodmund to be able to create configurations, or revive the old mod for OPM. (as collaborative work)

FIXED: I clicked on the EVE Icon in the bottom right and a I get an error message saying "No config! Please add a config with the contents of "EVE_CLOUDS{}" to populate. Where do I get a config?

Different visual packs provide the config (like AVP).

The default config is "Environmental Visual Enhancements - Stock Planet Config files" available on CKAN or from GitHub - https://github.com/WazWaz/EnvironmentalVisualEnhancements/releases/download/EVE-1.2.2-1/EnvironmentalVisualEnhancements-Configs-1.2.2.1.zip

So im trying to get my planets that have atmospheres  to "fade out more" rather than just a very distinct line:

KpfrM4E.jpg

The screenshots make it look way less for some reason and actually look like what I want. I'm pretty certain this is a setting in avp for eve, but no idea which one. Bodies without atmospheres had it too but I was able to get rid of it for them by removing the glow.cfg file in the avp configs folder.  But Im unable to change anything when it comes to bodies with atmospheres.

Getting the following error in a 1.12 install during the initial startup of the game:

2397 [AddonLoader]: Instantiating addon '_BuildManager' from assembly '_BuildManager'

Not really sure why, the code looks ok, but I'm going to guess it may be this code:

            Assembly buildManager = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
            String location = Path.GetDirectoryName(buildManager.Location);
            List<AssemblyName> assemblies = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies().Where(x => Path.GetDirectoryName(x.Location) == location).Select(x => x.GetName()).ToList();

I noticed that in my game, the cloud layer abruptly ends at 10,000 meters altitude. It looks weird on rocket takeoff or re-entry.
Does it work that way or could it be some bug or misconfiguration in my game?

I using the last version of 'Astronomer Visual Pack'! This can be a problem in that configuration's mod?

I'm using the latest version of this mod as well Scatterer (maximum quality settings)!

* KSP 1.12.1 Windows x64

Thanks.
