[1.0.2] Firefly - Revamped Atmospheric Effects
Rakete replied to MirageDev's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
I can confirm fortunately. Same for the excessive effects of retracted graphene heat spreaders from Nertea's System heat mod. Haven't yet tried out 1.0.2. Sorry. I am on vacation atm. -
Is this config now obsolete with firefly 1.0.2 coming with an own config for opm? Does it conflict? Are there visual comparisons (which one looks better ) available?

[1.0.2] Firefly - Revamped Atmospheric Effects
Rakete replied to MirageDev's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
@MirageDev First of all: I LOVE THIS MOD !!! I am pretty sure, the little bugs will get ironed out. I can not emphase enough how much i like what you created! Thank you so so much! I discovered some slight visual bugs (Win-System, not Linux): I can confirm, that the stock drills when stowed into an air protective Shield (here some storage part from Near future Launch vehicles) causes some reentry effects outside the vessel as @Lyra has shown: Secondly: The mod seems to have some little issues with retractable parts like the graphene heat spreaders from Nertea's Heat Controll mod. Here you can see them retracted, but causing heavy reentry effects: -
To my mind it's advisable in general to keep rl politics and patriotism for some country out of gaming forums. RL controverses simply don't have anything in common with the respective gaming forum's content focus. I am pleased, that noone here insists on promoting his/her own nationality. Here we are all the same: dedicated KSP players and content creators. Nothing else should matter. I don't care, if you are american, ukranian, russian, canadian, french, chinese, german, japanese... we are all one community. We shouldn't let RL stuff divide is in our enjoyment of this magnificent space flight sim.

Sorry to say so, but I think it's not the best descision to remove content or make certain engines bad due to some RL politics issues. Such decisions simply punish the player, who has nothing to do with politics. KSP is a game that is distributed globally. 90% of the players have nothing to do with the countries and people involved. The related RL persons are not affected by removing some parts of a mod for a very niche game. This decision simply hurts the wrong people. P.S.: I still don't know what the reason behind this completely - northern america is not in the focus everywhere in the world. I assume something about Trump & Musk. Don't get me wrong, but we - the mod users - are not guilty... don't punish us by taking away loved content.

[1.0.2] Firefly - Revamped Atmospheric Effects
Rakete replied to MirageDev's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Thanks for quoting, what I quoted myself. This was not helpful. My question was, if the mod auto-detects planets without atmosphere and disables effects. After having looked at the Config of OPM Firefly i found the answer by myself, that only planets with atmosphere have to be configured if you want the effects to be different than in kerbins atmosphere (e.g. different coloring). But neither seem atmosphereless worlds have to be configured nor do atmosphere parameters (like density, atmosphere upper bound etc.) to be entered in the config. It seems to be all about coloring and intensity of the effects. that is what i wanted to know. -
[1.0.2] Firefly - Revamped Atmospheric Effects
Rakete replied to MirageDev's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Just a short question: I have some old planetpack installed (REX)... How does firefly behave if the planets are unconfigured: Will Firefly obey, that most planets don't have an atmosphere? Do i have to configure every planet in the mod, or is it sufficient to have a look at the ones with atmospheres and configure them, due to the ones without atmospheres are ignored by firefly automatically? -
ewwhhh okay... I am not aware of every post some billionaire releases - or what he does (on our side of the atlantic, we don't keep track on everything happening in northern america atm, due to many things going on here right now... I mean... the vote in a very populated european country right now is just 2 weeks away...), but i guess it's up to the mod creator to remove content of his mod as he/she pleases. So i am okay with that. But i am kinda confused, that today's politics affect mod contents, as the engineers who developed those engine's aren't responsible on anything the company owner might post or say - they don't neccessarily share his opinion but just developed stuff as part of their job to keep their families supplied with housing, food and stuff... If we followed this thought consequently, we'd have to remove a lot of the rocketry content of the mods due to their origin. There's are some mod parts, that refer to rockets that were developed by engineers working for the most evil dictator in mankind's history with parts manufactured by prisoners working under worst possible inhuman conditions. Some others engines in some mods are parts of rocketry of mass destruction (those which refer to nuclear missiles), and so on... But all in all: I am okay with the decision, due to the fact, that the owner of the mod decides which content he wants to to be in his mod. Just my 2ct...
-
eeehhh... for non-americans... What's the reason behind it? Maybe I live under a rock, but for me as un-knowing european the reason is not evident. Can you please explain? Are those engines broken? Never notices any issue - but maybe i haven't used them... don't know... Or is it something political I am not aware of as a non-native-english-speaker?

Ist there a 2024-ish way, to make the opm-planets a bit more beautiful, that works with modern versions of scatterer etc.? The newest visual overhaul of opm is a few years old. Just askin'... -

Thanks, seems to be exactly what I was looking for. Will this still allow rotation of rotateable dockingports? -

Rakete replied to Gotmachine's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
A little question on stock and modded dockingports (esp. those without twisting) Is it possible to make them snap into certain discrete angles not any strange random orientation from the whole continuum of numbers? Sometimes you want to dock a vessel in a certain orientation and are visually bothered by a docking orientation deviation of 0.512342 degree or less, which make larger vessel with big panels look aligned wrong... sometime i feel i wish the possible docking orientation were not a continuum but a set of discrete orientations (maybe in 1 degree steps)
