Hercules, Titan and Hypatos PlanetFactory:CE Systems(With Rings!)

[Xenon2462]

how do you install this mod?

[tychochallenge]

I couldn't use this mod because of Ram usage but after getting active texture management, i can use this mod to its full potential!

Xenon, first install planet factory creator edition and put that into game data. Then, install this planet pack and put it into planet factory folder. Find PlanetFactory.cfg and put this pack alongside with the cfg

I really like titan nice job in the gas planet Textures.

I just finished putting a rover onto Lynx. The weird thing was my parachutes would not deploy. It was as if there was no atmosphere? It's a proven ship, I just did a landing on Polo with it and the chutes worked fine. I even did an F9 back to orbiting and did a second landing with the same result.

Hi, really very awesome sauce this! Very beautiful and believable planets!!

I have a (probably dumb question), do I just replace the ScienceDefs.cfg in the squad dir with this new one?

Would be really very incredibly awesome with Kethane and Interstellar resources, I might try and add that, if I do I'll share it here.

Are there custom biomes?

Now I'm off to start a new career game with these planets, thx again for the beautiful work!!

Cheers!

If I download this, will I also get the default PlanetFactory planets? I didn't like those planets because they were so unrealistic (Inaccessible, for instance, rotated faster than escape velocity, which is completely fake).

EDIT: I think I just remove the other folders within that download, right? These planets look nice.

Yes, But I reccommend you save the default ScienceDefs.cfg file.

Interesting, I thought I had fixed this....I may look into this, haven't touched up on this project in a while!

Yeah, you can choose to disable those systems. You can select the systems you want loaded by clicking on the preferred systems on startup of KSP. There should be a PlanetFactory:CE GUI box around the top left corner of the screen with this.

Thanks! I might go to one of these planets in my YouTube channel sometime.

You're welcome! That would be awesome!

I don't know how this may have happened. I tested Lynx with no atmospheric issues.

Update your clouds! I can't have my Saturn without rings, and all clouds and volumetric now.

That is very odd! I will go back and check it out again.

Weird bug: just landed on Cygnus with my probe and everything went dark even though it was day and i couldn't look up either? taking off again fixed it.

It's a mistake I made when crating the .cfg for Cygnus. I set one of the offset values below 1

Can we get an updated config to allow clouds and rings to work with Astronomer's Visual Pack?

[Beale]

Love this!

So many planet packs just go overboard with crazy planets and crazy colour schemes that couldn't possibly exist. This is the first one I've found that actually tries to keep in line with KSP's "The same as our own solar system, but a little different" theme.

I'd ask if you plan to add a Neptune analogue at some point? (or a Uranus analogue if Titan is more Neptune-y).

[Sylandro]

You can use KittopiaTech to make colored atmospheres and rings! It'll look neat on Hercules and the colored atmospheres will look neat on Lynx and Indus!

[Sun]

I have an idea for a new moon of Titan: Make the moon very close to Titan, about 3,000 km (3 Mm (3 megameters (3 million meters))). Give it a thin light green atmosphere, and give it green, radioactive oceans. You can decide the name. Oops I may have made the text too big.... maybe.

Realistically, I think the moon would be ripped part internally by Titan's gravity, so I think the oceans would be evaporated and would become apart of the atmosphere, and would be replaced by lava flows. Almost like Io.

I've been inactive on the KSP forums lately, maybe ill take a look at "KittopiaTech".

Is there a chance you could update the clouds config to work with EVE 7-3?

[jlrdsr]

Uuuuuhh, noob question. How do i install this?

And also, does this come with default planet factroy included, and i only have 3.5gb of ram (running a 32bit os, win xp) so i probabley wont have enouh ram will i?

-You have to install Planet Factory first in your GameData.

-Delete the Barry, Serious, and Stella folders inside the PlanetFactory folder to save RAM.

-Then install these system and place it in your GameData and then when you load the game in the upper left corner there's a window that says "Load Systems", if you want to save even more RAM then uncheck the Sentar System but keep the rest checked.

I'm not sure how good it will run, you might be able to run it or else it will crash because PlanetFactory is pretty RAM intensive but this system isn't as much. I'd guess something like 800mb? Also I recommend downloading ActiveTextureManagement because it saves you a lot of ram! Hope this helps!

I am starting work on this mod's reintegration:)
