Don't worry, it doesn't even take that long anyway. And besides, while you're waiting, you can play the game in the meantime! :D

But...  But... the stock sunflare is just SOOO ugly! It literally makes my eyes hurt to look at the sun. :P

Could you please clarify how you did this? Which folder do I need to place the sunflare into? I don't see a sunflare file in the OPM and Kopernicus folders, just one in the scatterer folder which I have replaced with Galileo's.

this MM patch will do the trick all by itself 

@Kopernicus:FINAL
{
  %Body[Sun]
  {
    %ScaledVersion
    {
      %Light
      {
        %sunLensFlareColor = 0, 0, 0, 0
      }
    }
  }
}

or... not? Hang on. Testing, I thought it was working before.

Ah, fixed it. Needed some % luvin. In fact I just changed them all to % to be safe

It appears that Spacedock is down. I've tried downloading with Edge and Chrome, and both aren't working. Chrome says that the server was unable to service my request, and CKAN is giving an error that it can't reach the server too. Do you have another mirror download?

How do you make a MM patch? Do I save it as a .txt file, or what?

Reading the original post often helps because many mod creators post different download locations :wink:

You can make it in a new text file and just rename the file extension to .cfg

I wasn't talking about Scatterer, but about SVT. Galileo is trying to help me fix an issue with OPM and Scatterer Sunflares, and apparently SVT has a fix in it.

The download proceeds to 4%, then an error message pops up saying that the download was interrupted. I then click resume, and the download time suddenly drops to a few minutes. When I try to extract the file, I get an error message saying that the zipped file is empty. It stops at the same place on CKAN too.

I also saw that another user was having the same issue, refer to the SVT thread for details. Sounds like exactly the same as my problem.

Hey Blackrack, This isnt a pressing issue, am im sure its by design, but when you Rename the sun in Kopernicus, scatterer does not work properly. It removes the ocean and there is no atmospheric haze. Its not a big deal i just so happen to notice it :0 thats all. have a good one!

Ah yes, the sun's name is hardcoded to "Sun" in scatterer, so if it can't find it, sun-related things don't work. I'll add a variable for it or make it auto-detect or something.

Is it better to have scaled space ambient light disabled or not?

Better disabled imo (ie disable scaled space ambient light box ticked :wink:). Usually I make the features that I think are worth it on by default.

Hi, sorry to bring this up again, but will there be any solution to the shoreline flickering problem? I haven't used scatterer since it started. I miss having scatterer, but to me, the shoreline flickering is worse than having no scatterer effects at all.

I reinstalled the most recent version recently and the problem is still there. Changed tons of settings like V-Sync, frame rate limit, changing program specific settings in Nvidia control panel... nothing fixed it.

Thanks, and I realize you're doing this all for free!

Working on it, I'm suspecting it's a parameter lagging behind by one frame or a precision issue, but couldn't pinpoint which yet.

Ok, @vwr0527 I think I fixed the ocean, please try this version when you can:

https://mega.nz/#!vEhQhC7Q!fEORoIeHg8kGl9_2ADJ8YJ0dqE15AI0-dFH_tuUtOkw

Also paging @Galileo @Citizen Joe @TheCrimsonCorndog

Btw this version maybe buggy in other ways, it's not a proper release.

ksp 1.2 pre-release? Not trying to rush.
