OTHER_WORLDS REBOOTED IN THE MAKING
THE ORIGINAL SYSTEM BUT WITH ~x42 TIMES DE QUALITY!

 

DOWNLOADS

          

Requires Kopernicus Beta and Module Manager

This mod adds a new star to KSP, with 5 exoplanets and 7 exomoons!

Cercani Star: An K-type (Orange dwarf) star orbiting Kerbol with half the diameter of this.

Planetary System: (Distances and sizes not to perfect scale)

Let's meet the exoplanets and exomoons:

--------------------------------------------- 1st planet ---------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------- 2nd planet ---------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------- 3rd planet ---------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------- 4th planet ---------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------- 5th planet ---------------------------------------------

(Double planet if using SigmaBinary)

          Version History: 

Spoiler

1.0.3:

• Re-uploaded to Github
• Fixed normal maps?       
• Changed Cercani's Power Curve. Not very accurate when close to the star. (Way too much energy)

1.0.2:

• Patch 1.0.1 implemented in Kerbal Stuff download         
• C2-1 Sphere of Influence Raised         
• Cercani's orange light color updated to work with Kopernicus 0.5.X

1.0.1 (Patch):

• C2-1 is no longer inside Vassa.
• Kevari's surface is 980 Kelvin hot, so be careful!

1.0:

• Science descriptions, stock and DMagic! (Not for all ones).
• Science and career mode compatibility.
• Cercani gives less power to the solar panels. x0.5 that of the stock Sun.
• Cercani's corona can be seen from far.
• Fixed Nienna's atmosphere.
• SigmaBinary compatible!
• PlanetShine compatible!
• Changed Disole atmosphere to red.
• Changed Disole and Niko sizes, now they are bigger.
• Changed Disole, Niko, Troni, Secunda and Prima surface gravity.
• Changed Nienna moons' orbits. Kevari is much closer, Crons much farther and Niko in a commet-like orbit.
• Changed Pequar moons' orbits.

 

Pre-1.0:

a0.3.1:

• Changed Disole texture and heightmap
• Added biomes for all bodies (No science defs)
• Removed mountain range of Disole.

a0.3:

• Changed every planet and moons (Except C2-1 and C3-1) size to it's double.
• Removed pixelated style surface to every body except C3-1.
• Made Prima and Secunda binary. (Still WIP)
• Secunda now resembles Pluto.
• Changed Pequar rings. Now it doesn't have a gap and are yellow.
• Applied an atmosphere to Pequar.
• Changed C2-1, Disole, Kevari, Crons and Niko orbits for the more realistic feel.
• Added a ringed crater to Niko
• Added a mountain range to Disole, also, its texture will be changed in the next update.

a0.2:

• Re-did Vassa, Disole, Kevari and Niko.
   
• Made Vassa Tidaly locked to Cercani
• Made C2-1 orbit bigger.
• Changed Pequar moon orbits.
• Cercani light and visual color changed to orange-white.
• Cercani orbit changed to 0.005 kerbal parsecs from Kerbol.
• Added PQSs of height to some bodies.
• EVE configuration.
• CustomAsteroid Configuration.

a0.1:

• Initial release

 

 

 

 

 

KNOWN BUGS:

While at C2-1 Sphere of Influence. Vassa and C2-1 will lose their tidal lock state. Although only visual for Vassa (It resets when you leave C2-1 SOI), C2-1 loses it's rotation.

 

COMPATIBLE MODS:

• Custom Asteroids (Adds a Troni Asteroid Belt and Nienna ones) (Included in main download)
• Old EVE (Separated download)
• Galactic Neighborhood.
• Distant Object Enhancements - /!\ If it makes the other planets flares to stop rendering, remove the config in GameData/OtherWorlds/CercaniSystem/-CONFIGS-/DOE.cfg /!\
• Outer planets mod, New horizons pack and this type of kopernicus packs are all supported
   

RECOMENDED MODS

• Interstellar/Alcubierre drive are mandatory to get to Cercani! (If you don't want to do years of travel)
• Near Future Technologies for navigating though the system.

 

TO-DO:

• Compatibility with Planetshine, Distant Objects Enchantment, Custom Asteroids, Final Fronteir, FAR mods.
• Make Prima and Secunda be real double planets.
• EVE mod compatibility with custom clouds and Astronomer's Interestellar visual pack style. (Almost finished)
• Science descriptions for stock experiments and some other mods ones like DMagic Orbital Science. (I will need help for this, because I'm not a native english-speaker)
• Do a better forum post presentation.
• Check for grammar/vocabulary errors.
• DEVELOPMENT THREAD

 

WIP area:

System n2 (Project name)

General Progress:

 

System A



System B







System AB

THE CREW:

 

Special Thanks:

 

• Thomas P for creating Kopernicus mod. (Most important one)
• The guys at the IRC channel for helping me with stupid errors.
• Vladimir Romanyuk a.k.a. the Space Engine creator for his randomized planet textures. (Mostly Heightmap used)

 

Disclaimer: This is my first mod, so It can be bad, buggy, not good looking, not funny at all, or even be good!

[Sigma88]

congrats on the release guys

[Mach_XXII]

Congrats on release! Excited to finally play around with them

[Pkmniako]

congrats on the release guys

Actually I made it myself alone. The other people just helped me with technical stuff, but they deserve to be credited.

What does this require computer wise, I'm using a semi-potato, so the things like Astronomer's Interestellar visual pack can't really be run on it, but if it loads the planets like stock ksp, which i don't have any problems with, it should work fine right?

It's optional, and isn't finished, so probably your half potato'll be able to run it.

[ibuckshot5]

Kevari now looks like a planet from Spore. XD

[Yukon0009]

Holey meat, this looks awesome. I'm gonna try this.

[Cornholio]

Has anyone checked compatibility with OPM?

Has anyone checked compatibility with OPM?

It works fine.

First reactions

Troni: great textures, looks good.

Vassa: It almost looks hairy... weird! pretty cool

C2-1: that's some pretty good camouflage...

Prequar: Love love LOVE the textures here. The bright blue rings seem a little out of place though.

C3-1: this one's pretty funny. yellowish-green

disole: Planet of discarded Pasta, I still love the textures

Neinna: Looks a whole lot like Eve, without the land.

Kevari: Whoa! this one is amazing to look at! colorful!

Crons: not bad! looks good.

Niko: I like it, Mun with a green tinge! cool.

Prima: beutiful! wait, do they orbit eachother? that'll make it hard.

secunda: This is the only one I not that fond of. the dark green lines just look so out of place.

Over-all great pack! Only 1 thing. How the hell do I get there? it's a very far orbit!

[Pkmniako]

Only 1 thing. How the hell do I get there? it's a very far orbit!

With Alcubierre Drives!

I'm going to put it on the main post so people can know it! Thanks!

Prequar: Love love LOVE the textures here. The bright blue rings seem a little out of place though.

Are any of these kerbin clones? I'm looking for a mod that adds a Kerbin like planet for colonization that wouldn't need "terraforming"

No right now, probably in the future.

[Zombie_Striker]

This looks like a really cool mod.

I just have three questions:

-Right above Nienna's picture, the text reads "...and three mayor moons". Did you mean "Major" ?

-What is the distance between Kerbol and Cercani star? Would RemoteTech work with this mod, or would larger Antenna parts need to be created in order to send probes between star systems?

-Do the planets fit with stock values (Achievable DV for ion/nuclear engines, Average Science gain, ect.)

[Garbonzo]

hey, I heard that your not a native English speaker, and that's fine. I'm actually very happy that people from other countries are joining this community. If you need any English tips or corrections, I'm here for you! I downloaded your mod and it's awesome!

- Probably. In my native language it's said "mayor", so... My fault!

- 0.005 kerbal parsects ^{the heck is that distance!?} or 7265 Giga-meters away! In the future, the pack will have two parts, an antenna and a new warp drive compatible with Interstellar/AlbubierreDrive mods.

- When you are on the system, because Cercani being a K type star and smaller, is lees massive and you can navigate more efficiency thought its planetary system. Science is not very well implemented yet.

Do you need help with texturing?

[_Augustus_]

Do you need help with texturing?

Does he look like he does? This mod is in the release thread you know.

[Olympic1]

Keep up the great work Pk. I love the new textures in 0.2.

I landed on Vassa yesterday, forgot to take pictures though.

[Tellion]

Does he look like he does? This mod is in the release thread you know.

No need for that tone, he just asked a question. There is even less need to be so snappy about it as you are not even the mod author.
