That's cool.
What does that have to do with Bass?Nothing.

Hmm.... I'll look into making a config for it once the core system is done.
I guess you could just do something like
@Kopernicus:AFTER[Valor (or whatever your folder is named)] { @Body[Valor] { @Orbit { [change orbital parameters here] } } } -

I got an idea: a small binary system with 2 habitable planets, one named Anyure and the other named Eruyna, the mirror twins!
the 2 a pretty close, to get beauty shots. And a small asteroid named Anyna, orbiting between the two. Or it could be the barycenter name
Maybe you should make that yourself! With some practice and the right tools, you can make pretty cool and interesting stuff, like Desper's canyon, Doosem's Volcanoes, Toxo, Dindin, and Magmina. I'm confident you can get some pretty good looking planets.

So, I've been working on a planet pack for the past four or so days, and each of my custom-made planets (apart from gas giants) has the same issue: in ScaledSpace (map view), the lit side of the planet faces one uniform direction and does not follow the sun, as if it were ignoring the existence of the sun in favor of a light source at infinite distance. I haven't had any other issues making them, apart from a few stupid mistakes I made which were easily fixed. (such as wrong atmosphere color, no biomes, etc.)
A few pictures so you can get a better idea of what I'm talking about:
Here is a config file for one of the planets:

Maybe if this gets fixed I might release my pack after I've finished writing the science definitions.
This is probably a little late, but it's because the normal maps have not been properly exported. You need to export it as a .dds with a DXT_5 (I think) format, otherwise the problem above will occur.
I just use KittopiaTech, which allows problem-free normal maps that I use all the time.

I agree, but some textures look pretty nice when there just a image file, but most do look weird when flat, like my planet texture, it looks strange flat, but on a planet it looks ok
EDIT: This is no longer the planet texture because it was not lined up right
By the way, the optimal file dimensions is 2x1 textures, such as 2048 by 1024, 4096 by 2048 etc. The image you are currently using does not follow that unless I'm mistaken.

Does Valor fit into Japris well?
Somewhat. Valor is a little close to Retuo's orbit, in real life it would be enough to knock Retuo and it's moons out of it's orbit. It would need to be moved much farther out.

Does anyone happen to have any beauty shots of Valor and its moons? I would like some to put in an album, and possibly for a new banner. I will give full credit.
I have Valor currently installed in my Japris save because I was curious about how Orton looked, I might take some.

Presenting Oppo's companion, Toxo!
I like it. It has oceans of toxic sludge!
One of it's toxic lakes.

@DunaManiac yea i was planing the lower down the moon count (vool has WAY to many), but they will still have quite a few moons.
Perhaps. I would limit the number of moons down to 5 or 6 at maximum.
-
I would suggest lowering the number of moons, the sheer amount of bodies can overwhelm you and it can be hard to come up with new ideas. If you add too many bodies, unless you can get really creative it'll just look like the same thing over and over and over again but with slightly different terrain.

I like most of the planet re-dos, but Vall needs to stay blue and Duna needs to stay orange.
But... Duna is still orange, but darker, and Vall is actually more blue than before.

Oppo looks pretty good so far.
Sadly, no polar icecaps yet. I think the surface looks far too simplistic.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking of.
I've gotten other requests for that. I might make it a part of 0.3.2.

I'll give it a fair try. We'll see what happens.

Interesting mod, how did you add those canyons(?) on Ninmus.
Also, I would suggest changing Pebble's appearance. It looks like a smaller version of the Mun orbiting the Mun.
-
Oppo is on the way!
Currently it's just landmasses. I'll be adding possible rivers(?) to Oppo.

I know this idea is counterintuitive, since the whole point of the mod is to reorganize the planets and add new ones without having to travel too far, but is there any way to add the new planets and moons without changing the stock system much? If not, I wouldn't mind changing the configs myself to reorganize it how I'd like.
Perhaps I could make an optional config where the Kerbol system remains the same and the others are moved to another Star system perhaps?

Wait, i was checking the moon with kittopiatech and the texture and normal said "BULTIN/moho01" and BULTIN/moho02, the configs dont say that themselfs
That means a classic filepath error. BUILTIN/moho01 is Moho's texture. I don't use .dds because (scary stuff happens when I tried). a .png works fine. Basically, what I do is that I submit the textures as normal .pngs, then export the normal map with Kittopia and it works fine.
Also, in the Material section of PQS, it's not meant to be your scaledspace/PQS map. It's meant to make the surface have subtle textures, like small rocks. You don't even need Material (in PQS) right now, I would suggest deleting it and see if that helps.
(White is also a filepath failure. White is the default texture).
Also, delete MaterialType in PQS that also causes problems.
