And also, fx from KSPRC, as a company. This isn't really something I would like to do for the visual pack as I am trying to use KSPRC solely for the surface textures, if you want feel free to stick them in yourself, you seem to have the knowledge of it, and when I was first implementing KSPRC into [0.2] the part textures were uncompatible. It took me days alone to get the surface textures to be compatible. What do you mean FX by KSPRC as a company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSPRC includes custom fx for engine plume and etc. 1 minute ago, Alteroz said: KSPRC includes custom fx for engine plume and etc. All you need to change stock fx with KSPRC one is : ctrl+c from fx folder, and then ctrl+v into the squad fx folder.

Many components of KSPRC simply put, don't function; I tried installing the skybox and sunflare, the skybox was nowhere to be seen and the sunflare created the tesseract from interstellar haha.

If I can change this to about 75000 that would be fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uvnoise makes clouds look wigly, which makes them look realistic and not so pixelated. Ha, realistic... it makes them look like they are made of fumes from a gas grill! To each their own, but the UV noise on the clouds does not look realistic. Sure it helps with hidind the pixelated edges sometimes, but so does a good detail texture.

Don't forget that uvnoise don't just hides pixelated edges, it's also makes them change form, so it looks like they are moving, just like a real cloud! You can't argue with that.

You can't argue with that. After implementing the numbers for the parameters, it didn't seem to make much of a difference. Let me look at what detail texture is used when climbing through the clouds.

themaster401 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) UVNoise does substitute for the pixelation of clouds up close, but depending on the intensity of the effect, the augmentation looks exactly as Galileo stated, fumes from a gas grill. When used desirably, it can create some pretty neat visuals for aurorae and clouds. Edited May 15, 2017 by themaster401 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tone down the intensity to almost a non existent value. It's very easy to make it look bad with uv noise, so low values are recommended. 10 hours ago, Alteroz said: Don't forget that uvnoise don't just hides pixelated edges, it's also makes them change form, so it looks like they are moving, just like a real cloud! You can't argue with that. I can argue with that. While clouds do change shape over time, it is slow enough that you would not be able to see it with the naked eye from even low orbit. Thus, making uv noise unrealistic. All uv noise is good for is toning down the pixelated textures somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
