    I contacted him on Discord and Youtube 1 month ago and got no response, maybe he is no longer active

    I tried add this code to cfg file 

    MODULE
	{
		name = ModuleDecouple
		ejectionForce = 200
		isOmniDecoupler = false
		explosiveNodeID = top		
	}

    And it didn't work , i don't know how to make it work..

    Hi mate, sorry for not answering before. I'm not sure what could be happening although my guess is that maybe something has changed in BDArmory Runway Project that has potentially break BDModularMissiles mod?  I know that after the release of KSP 1.12.5 everything was working as expected and AFAIK with BDArmoryContinued it should still work fine. If it doesn't let me know and I will review it and fix it.

    new release

    Hi all,

    This might be my last mod release that I do for KSP 1!  It has better performance now after some fixes!. Let's pray for KSP2 now and let's hope that proper mod support is in place so that I can port all my mods without having to summon the Kraken Lord itself

    Glad you're enjoying this.

    I'd recommend increasing the number of light samples here, or reducing the light sampling distance, the cloud lighting looks a bit flat.

    You'll also want to break up the repetition in your noise by adding variety/detail to your coveragemap, but that's a lot more work as you said.

    For RSS consider increasing the max step size to keep performance reasonable.

    Thanks for the feedback! I have been looking at the code to see if I could find some info of what does what and I ended up reading some papers regarding the Raymarching and Noise generation lol. 

    And regarding the coverage map I might need your help with some doubts:

    -  I was using a huge clouds cube map texture  as coverage map - actually the one that EVO/RSSVE was using previously as the 64k 2d layer texture, and it "works" although as you mention it does not include a noise pattern as the one that you have for the stock volumetric cloud. So I was thinking to convert the 64k clouds texture to a equirectangular texture and then using Photoshop/Gimp to add some noise pattern the clouds?

    - I was playing with other cloud layer textures and even if they look white/black it seems the alpha channel does not seems to work as I'd expect because it projects shadows everywhere and if I use it as the upper layer then the  lower cloud layers are getting shadows even if there is no clouds above. This also happens with the clouds 64k cubemap which is a green alpha.

    I'm working on a new RSS-EVO config for the volumetric clouds but still a lot of testing and tweaking required and to be honest you need a powerful GPU ;)  (this video has been recorded with a Ryzen 5800x3d|RTX 3080|64 GB DDR4 ). I'm using a 3 cloud layers plus mix of worley and perlin noIse, looking at the cloud types so far my favorite so far is the cirrus one, it look much more photo-realistic for RSS.

     


     

    [KSP 1.12.2] Physics Range Extender v1.21.0 (04 Sep 2021)

    @jrodriguez A short question. When I place targets on the ground and then fly with my attack plane to them and enter the set physics range the objects on the ground glitch out and are place on some very wild places and trajectories.

    What can I do against it? I could set the physics range to large values (e.g. 600km for all around kerbin), but that would also mean, that my orbital stations around kerbin would also be loaded at all times (and also having the long-range-PRE-bugs that you mentioned in your OP), when I have PRE active to do some BDA-Missions (like doing a long range cruise missile "mission")

    21 minutes ago, Rakete said:

    Yeah, the Idea is, to do some BDA mission with the both teams not starting right next to each other. To do some kind of a mission, where you fly to the opponent's area, attack all the gathered ground vessels and fly back home. This doesn't really make sense, if you only have to fly 10 km to the target, to drop a big boomstick

    If I have no satellites in lets say 600km distance (because they are in higher orbits), can I set pre to said 600km or will also strange displacement effects take place, when I set up some ground scenario with defense turrents and stuff, when I switch back to a vessel that is... 400km away... ?! What tricky things should I expect and what can I do against those trickinesses ? Any best practises?

    I mean, on your YT channel, there are videos with long range cruise missiles. That looks fun. 

    I want to have fun doing similar things. So tips are very very welcome

    I'd suggest the following. Use Kerbalkonstructs to set up static bases, buildings, road, etc where you can place all your mission vessels. You should never place them on terrain to avoid colliding when entering/easing physics range. Then disable the terrain extender option from Presettings file and set the range to something like 60-70 kms for standard air/ground warfare or if you want to test something like long range cruise missile 300 km could be enough.

    Any advice? E.g does it make sense to PRE to a very short physics distance (10km), so that the ground objects are just loaded just before impact of a bomb/cruise missile etc? Or would this result in the same displacement effects, upon entering the physics range of the ground placed objects.

     

    PRE is not really meant or support daily Kerbin operations. I would not suggest to have it active at all moments. However I suggest to use it only for specific missions or scenarios that requires to have a extended loaded range. For example been able to have a landed planed at KSC runways while flying on the island.

    Having PRE set to 10 kms is not really useful (would be as stock) and having PRE set to 600 km is tricky I'd only suggest that if your saved game doesn't have any satellites or things you don't want to lose.

    Lack of gravity and drag doesn't break BDArmory ballistics, velocity does. Guns work just fine at stationary orbits or at a low orbital velocity. Looks like not all components of  the shooting vessel's velocity are added to the projectile's velocity.

    You are right. Although I think laser type of weapon (non ballistic) at least in the past were working fine from orbit https://youtu.be/JveKmzM5ACg

    Dear jrodriguez!

    Can the KURS camera be shown in the OfCourseIstillLoveYou camera window?

    Sorry for the late replay. At this moment it only works for Hullcam but I guess it should be very difficult to add other cameras

    Hi all,

    I'm glad to announce that I have released a new version of OCISLY
    Changelog:

    • Now it is possible to change Width and Height camera resolution in the settings.cfg file!
    • Finally fixed a major bug making TweakScale to not load due to the stupid KSP loader trying to load every single assembly even it can't do it.
    • Frameworks upgraded to .NET Fw 4.8 for mod and NET6 for streaming server and Avalonia Desktop App.
    • Greater performance at all levels.
    • OCISLY icon only shown during FLIGHT scene.

    You can download the new release from here:
    https://github.com/jrodrigv/OfCourseIStillLoveYou/releases/tag/v1.0.111

    Enjoy!

    Is the BDAc  still being updated? I saw a post saying BDA 1.12.3 was released. Is that not the same as the project runway?

    No it is not the same. BDA " Runway project" is a better and newer version forked from BDAC   2 years ago. The version released for 1.12.3 is just a maintenance release of BDAc.

    So is BDA compatible with 1.12.3 now? 

    Yes

    Is it possible to add the fov of the cameras to the client? Right now all the cameras when viewed on the desktop client have the same fov, but in the game each camera has a different one. 

    I could use the default fov of the hullcam camera, the reason why I'm using a lower fov for all of them is performance. Watching/Streaming one camera is fine, but watching/streaming 3 or 4 cameras like CCTV has a significant performance cost. Resolution and FOV are the 2 factors that impact the performance.

    But I will try to implement something to allow the user to use the original fovs from hullcam.

    @jrodriguez Thank you, sir! I've watched those, but I'm not sure if they work with BDArmory for Runway Project. Do you think it would be better if I uninstall Runway Project's version and use BDAc & your Modular Missile Parts mod instead? Thanks again!

    I'm not sure if it will work in Runway Project maybe they have changed the way it work and in that case I suggest to ask to the RP developers first. If you don't find out how to make it work then I'd go for the legacy Bdarmory and my Modular Missile Parts

    Hello, is there anyway I can use just the camera tracker portion of the mod? I want to use it with ofcourseistillloveyou without introducing too much new content or part modules.

    No it is not possible. But I agree that it would be nice to have a mod with that functionality. However, you can track/follow  a vessel using CameraTools mod, from a different vessel you can select a part of the vessel you want to focus the camera and track it :)

    I'm getting requests to look into merging code from Project Runway and BDA Continued.  As I understood things, during my absence, the BDA team disbanded, and Project Runway took over maintenance.  @jrodriguez started a multiplayer fork, as far as I know.  Is this a correct assessment?  I've not heard from the other members of the old BDA team in a while, so I'm just putting out feelers to see what the state of BDA Continued is.  What are the differences between the two forks, and is there a reason to bring BDAc "up to date?  What is the value proposition in doing so?

    Hi Papa, your assessment is correct.  From my point of view, it doesn't make sense to merge  the code from the Runway Project because it is in my opinion the natural successor of our Bdarmory Continued. 

    If any, maybe it could make sense to do some basic maintenance to ensure that BDAc continue working without fatal errors or exceptions just in case someone prefers the legacy Bdarmory Continued

    Using .NET 5.0 for mods is possible? Will it work with 1.12.2?

    But to be clear, you are wrong again.

    You show again what both of us already know, KSP mod's use "framework" 4.5 (or compatible).

    But I wrote there on "Of course..." about the external use of "runtime" 5.0, not framework, my dear negator.

    So, NO for you too.

    Chillout guys ;) . You are both right. OCISLY has 3 components: the mod itself that of course is .NET Framework/Mono compatible and a .NET Core 5.0 Server and Desktop Client which are compiled for Mac, Linux and Windows .
