The most likely culprit is your file paths being wrong, but just to be sure, upload Nok.body.log (found in KSP Root/Logs/Kopernicus, where KSP root is the folder with the game executable in it).

Hello. In the development of my planet pack I stumbled across two errors: first, the ground textures won't show up, second, this:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UNEv5q7NRJsOwzoTnnQKbA014ZRDufk0U_TuyDjhJlU/edit

 PLEASE HELP!!!! :confused:

Sorry for my (kinda) bad English, it's not my native language.

I did intal kopornicus and kittopia.

@ffxIt appears that you have mentioned the PQS mod "VertexSimplexHeighAbsolute" three times, that could be the problem.

I looked in the logs and found this: [LOG 19:53:00]: [Kopernicus]: Configuration.Loader: Failed to load Body: Lognic: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
what does this mean?

Hello,

I would like to make a rough model of Arrokoth for a New-Horizons mission, but I'm not really sure how to add the shape in, because it's a bit peculiar. Is a shape like this even possible with Kopernicus? Otherwise I'll just stick with putting Dres into it's orbit for the mission :)

Thanks in advance.

I have been trying to create planets this way for 2 months now and every single time the planet either doesn't appear at all, it appears but the surface is purple, or some other random problem.

 

Not gonna lie, Kopernicus physically could NOT be less intuitive.

I'm trying to modify a planet in a pack. I'm satisfied with the color but want it to look more vibrant and "Soupier", it looks okayish at the very low altitudes but fades away into black nothingness too quickly during accent despite the static pressure being really high. Not game-breaking just looks odd.

What parameters do I need to modify and by how much?

I'm getting an error called:

"Exception Was Recorded: Unable to read beyond the end of the stream."

Could someone help?
