[1.12.x] PALETTE - Post-Processing Profiles for KSP - v3.3 (27 November)

[Emilius73]

 

This is PALETTE.

 

A set of customized, TUFX-based color profiles for KSP to spice up your game's visuals. This is a continuation/expansion/replacement of my original mod, the KASA Flag Pack and TUFX Profile.

 

THE PROFILES!

There are 10 profiles in total. They are:

• Lighthouse V2: An improved version of Lighthouse, with boosted contrast, color saturation and improved auto exposure. A map-friendly version is included.
• Aperture: A black-and-white color config designed to resemble such images taken with modern cameras.
• Lighthouse: The standard profile. An updated version of Orbit with a slightly warmer, more natural tone. A map-friendly version is included.
• Spheres: A VERY intense, VERY bluish profile. Meant for use in cool environments.
• Luna: A muted, more neutral tone meant for environments such as the Mun or Dres.
• Kerbosawa Mode: A black-and-white profile meant to emulate Ghost of Tsushima's Kurosawa Mode.
• Baldwin: A reddish profile, meant for use in places like Duna or deserts.
• Orbit: The mod's old standard profile. It has a bluish tone and bright lighting.
• Heisenberg: A gritty, yellowish tone based on Breaking Bad.
• The Really Old One: My very first profile, the one included in the original mod.

 

HOW TO INSTALL:

1. Download and install TUFX.
2. Delete any previous versions of PALETTE.
3. If you also have the original "KASA Flag Pack and TUFX Profile" mod, delete it. The contents of that are now bundled here.
4. After downloading PALETTE, move the "Palette" folder into your GameData.
5. Enjoy!

Actually, it might be a good idea to include install instructions in the OP haha

[Emilius73]

Long time no see!

Ill be looking to revamp the color profiles and make new ones soon.

Meanwhile, have some screenshots!

 

Note: for best results with PALETTE, I recommend you install PlanetShine and increase the ambient light settings.

[unwisechart17]

Your profiles are always the best, especially in RSS. Keep it up man!

[Emilius73]

PALETTE v3.1 is out!

A minor yet noticeable update, which adds automatic exposure to all the profiles for a more natural and realistic look!
