  1. Beyond Jool

    ckp5Wt3.jpeg

    What lies beyond the green giant?

    1.0.0. Release on SpaceDock now!

    Since the dawn of spaceflight, kerbals knew of 5 planets and 2 dwarf planets. Moho, Eve, Kerbin, Duna, Dres, Jool, and Eeloo. The Kerman Telescope, however, has found new bodies in the Kerbol System.

    Beyond Jool is a planet mod I've been wanting to make since I bought the game. This year I finally did something with it.

    The "version history" is here.

    Spoiler


    0.1 Added Sarkin.

    0.2 Added Lull.

    0.2.1 Fixed Sarkin lighting.

    0.2.2 Fixed Lull fading.

    0.3 Added Sushut.

    0.4 Added Rage.

    0.5. Added Pebble.

    0.5.1 Gave Sushut atmosphere.

    0.5.2 Removed Pebble (for now) and retextured Sushut.

    0.6 Gave Sushut AtmosphereFromGround node and added Sapp and Kotta.

    0.6.1 Made Kotta oblate. (Thanks Lt_Duckweed!) 

    0.6.1.1 Extended Sapp's rings a bit. 

    0.6.2 Fixed a crack in Sushut, because I had two VertexHeightMaps.

    0.6.2.1 Made rings see through.

    0.7  Readded Pebble, now named as Tom

    0.7.1 Retextured Sushut AGAIN :sticktongue:

    0.7.2 Retextured Tom. 

    0.7.3 Removed Rage and added Eeloo as a optional moon.

    0.8 Revamped Lull, beefed up Sushut, and retextured Sarkin .

    0.9 Added a new gas giant, Anune, and gave it a moon. Also added Pluto analog.

    1.0.0 look at the changelog there on page 2 


     

    Spoiler

    Sarkin : Gigantic gas giant larger than Jool.

    Aron : Best views in the Kerbol System!

    Eneck: Ice world. Quite white.

    Kotta : You spin me right round, baby right round.

    Sapp : A captured dwarf.

    Tyrant : Fear the tyrant.

    Hope : Moon of a moon!

    Moach : A frozen moon forgotten by time.

    Anune : A trojan gas giant of a gas giant??? What???

    Merza : Icy little moon.

    Beyond Jool Download

    To-do here- 

    Spoiler

    1. Fix weird pole glitch. (may not be possible ;.;) (This feature is ON HOLD , meaning I do not understand how to do/fix this.)

    2. EVE and Scatterer upgrades. (This feature is ON HOLD , meaning I do not understand how to do/fix this.)

    3. Add a comet! (This feature will likely happen not happen, as there is a lack of documentation on comets.)

    4. Real biomes and science defs. (This feature is IN DEVELOPMENT for the next update)

    Spoiler

    BJ-Close Encounters adds a new planet very close to the Sun, Rage.

    BJ-CE download here.

    BJ-Dres Belt adds more bodies in the Dres area.

    WIP

    BJ-More Muns adds more bodies to  Anune and Sarkin,  like ring shepards,  far out asteroids, and in Anune’s case,  analogs for the moons of Uranus. May even get a Neptune analog, but then you really should just get OPM & OPX.

    WIP

     


    Special thanks to @Sushut and @Lt_Duckweed for helping with the mod.
