alternatively, if you have photoshop, you can install nvidia's plugins for dds and save your image as dds directly

no, that's the point. kittopia cannot save dds directly, that's why you need to convert them from png to dds

Help me stay motivated in my endeavors to create more interesting and diverse mods for KSP. Every little support helps!

 

What is Uncharted Lands?

A re-imagining of the stock planets, Uncharted Lands strives to create both beautiful and interesting worlds possible.

Featuring an entirely new layout of planets and moons, Uncharted Lands offers a fresh start and new challenges for the Kerbol system.

Uncharted Lands is a procedurally created stock overhaul for KSP's planets. The aim of this mod is to create the most beautiful and interesting system possible with NO HEIGHTMAPS OR EXTERNAL FILES AT ALL.

Every Single texture used in game for Uncharted Lands is either included in the stock game, or generated solely from PQSMods used on the planets. This new and exciting creation method can create an entirely different result to the standard heightmaps used by most other mods.

Hey Ash, good to see your still hanging around making these great worlds.  I've got a couple small issues that I would like you to answer.  One is just that the Mun looks like it was made from paper mache.  The other things is an issue, the mod changes the brightness to an extreme level.  Dark is way to dark when it comes to being in shadows trying to view your craft, and forget about it if your on the dark side of any body.  Please tell me I can adjust this, I tried to increase the Suns intensity, but it didn't help with how dark things are.  I could run lights on EVERYTHING, but I cant even make out an Outline of my ships if I'm on the dark side of ANY planet.  Really need help with this as I just cant part with the solar system now that I have been spoiled with the textures and great changes.

Thx man, Dren

you could get past this my maybe installing some lights on your ships maybe?

or if you reeeeeeally want to move back to stock lighting go to Gamedata/UnchartedLands/Kopernicusfiles and delete the Sun folder.

 

no too sure about the Mun though.....somethign might have changed while ive been away

[KillAshley]

Working correctly in 1.3 now.

[TheLittleTrain17]

not sure if this is a known bug but my kerbin map and in-game are off. not sure which is considered not right but it looks like it got rotated 90 degrees somewhere.  

In-game view

in map view

no the maps really aren't off, you just landed on the side of a moon, your view is relative to the surface of minmus in game, and seeing as you landed on the side of it, it will appear like this. Same as if you land on the equator of mun in the stock game then kerbin will look sideways. If, however, this occurs when in orbit of a planet (and not in surface view) then it is a bug and you should send me a picture of your craft in orbit to show me.

As Sigma said, you should try landing at the north pole to avoid confusion

I always do equator landings and I've never noticed this. thats weird, Ill see if it looks like that in orbit.

[TheLittleTrain17]

man, camera angles are weird.

[KillAshley]

Good to see UL is still working fine in 1.3.1, I did a small update to Kerbin's atmosphere coloring, but nothing special.

Hello all, Uncharted Lands does not appear to be working in KSP 1.4.5. It seems to stop loading at Duna, and I'm unsure how to fix it.

I'm playing on the windows version of KSP, 64-bit.
