randall_going_to_space Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 @blackrack Can we go ahead and set Scatterer to support KSP 1.7 and up in CKAN? I'm running it with 1.7.3 and have no visible issues. I'm asking because in CKAN it's still marked as only supporting up to KSP 1.6.1, and the devs are hesitant to mark it such without the mod author's consent.

Weirdly enough, less than 2000000 meters are required for RSS (a larger body that even 10.6x scaled Kerbin) so i assume that something else is causing that (see final note). Saw the same thing with just the default Scatterer distribution and a 10.6x rescale (see final note). I...guess so? Give me some time and I'll whip something up.Note: I would guess that both of these are caused by the fact that the default Scatterer configs/textures are not meant to be used "as-is" for rescales.Edit: new version is up, now allows the user to define a custom clip value (located under "FarCameraFix/Configs/FarCameraFix_Settings.cfg"). Pinging @evileye.x for further testing. Hi guys, I'm having this problem with the camera's far clipping plane and i'm trying to apply the solution in the quoted post, but the link does not work anymore. Does anybody still have this cfg?

Please be patient and just wait a while for the modders to catch up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only wondering if it was compatible with 1.8 or it would need an update. Take your time modders, do it good like you always do!

Stryks Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 (edited) Any chance this mod is also causing this (in 1.8 - up to date install alongside EVE)? It only becomes visible when you're looking towards the sun, as you would expect the sunflare to do, but as you can see ... different. Also ... Arghhh ... Scorched Kerbin. Oh the Kerbinity! I love this mod BTW ... thanks for all your effort. Edited October 18, 2019 by Stryks Forgot the thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwaster Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 @Stryks 1.8 had significant changes Significant upgrade to Unity The API reference files themselves are changed. (this time around, if a mod works ok in 1.8 count that as a minor miracle. Instead of 1 or 2 files to reference there could be up to ten... or maybe more. (Real Fuels has to reference ten files now) We're up to .NET 4 now instead of 3.5 like we've been on for years. This is going to have to be updated. A recompile at the very least so be patient.

jmannNG Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I myself like seeing these kind of bugs now and again as it reminds me of the work that goes into making KSP and its mods amazing. The bug squashing take's the effort of a human, and I really appreciated that in a game I use to kind of step away from humanity for a bit.

R-T-B Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 (edited) Updated 1.8 build of scatterer with a rename, essentially. It was renamed so bugs don't go to the original author. It will work with original scatterer mods, you just need to run a small script. You will lose your settings options unless you drag/drop the cfgs manually. Just thought some of you may appreciate it. EDIT: You didn't. Removed. Sorry. Edited October 20, 2019 by R-T-B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there was an unofficial build I put out using the standard name. It worked with a few glitches, mostly sun flares. It was up around 3 hours and had maybe 30 downloads. Don't ask for it. It was a mistake as I do not have naming permissions. Unfortunate, but that one I completely understand, I was just eager to help. That was a mistake on my part and I am sorry.

pwn Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 i sent the author (ghassen?) an email a few days ago but i'm not sure if he is still around.. i was really thankful for R-T-B to make an unofficial update but wanted to wait until it's bugfree and AVP would use it... which was obviously a terrible mistake... I don't really understand what was going on there on R-T-B's thread but stuff like that makes me loose faith in humanity. I bet a lot of people won't play KSP until at least those graphics mods will work again, even if it takes forever. 1.7.3 had performance issues so playing that is not an option to me either. Guess i have to wait for KSP 2... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the author is currently dealing with a death in the family? It would help everybody if we could all be more patient and wait more than 4 days after a major release drops for their favorite mods to be updated. This is a visual mod. It has no direct effect on gameplay. The stock game should do you fine until then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah ... So, you'd like us to see a problem after an update, and *not* tell anyone, and instead wait patiently for an update? Has it occurred to you that we *are* waiting patiently (and with greatest respect) for an update? That, in lieu of actually modding the thing ourselves, we're trying to be helpful in the only way we can; by making a polite note here about the issues we encounter? Apparently this is not the case, given that every post from a non-modder gets the obligitory admonishment not to be so demanding. I dropped a similar post on another thread, got admonished, apoligised for having the temerity to make a post, and then had the thread removed for being off topic. If this is a place for modders only, then simply name the thread as such and we'll know that user comments aren't needed / desired. Otherwise, allow that people want to contribute in the most obvious way available; the public forum. Obvious examples aside, the interaction is intended to show interest and support for your work.

It has literally been 4 days and it is cosmetic content. I'm certain that blackrack has heard that ksp has been updated; just let them get to it when they have the time if they want to. Neither they, nor the moderators, need everyone telling them that ksp has been updated and mods are broken.

I would simply suggest doing a simple thing though if you have the steam edition: Under game properties, use the "betas" opt-in tab to revert to 1.7.3. Thank me later.
