Hello Poodmund,

This is excellent. Since I am currently carrying out a comprehensive mission to Gauss. I will also make a mission report, here is the link:

A Journey to Gauss

Currently, I have made all the preparations and plan to be there by the weekend. Is this still timely? The story is still a bit behind but I will add a new post every day. The best pictures I can post here or in the relevant topic. Where is it you prefer?

[Poodmund]

I am looking for screenshots ideally by the end of Saturday, posting the best of them in the screenshot thread would be great. 

I hope your Tour of Gauss goes well.

Ok.

I will hurry. I also exchange my Sky Box and take a more neutral.
No need to worry about the mission. Jeb has already tested everything - it is foolproof if he does not get it broken.

So...the city lights scale up dramatically at 10x scale, it is amusing to see though...

Other shots though in 10x are AMAZING!

[Galileo]

@RocketPCGaming well the city lights are really there for beauty shots in mid to high orbit. They don't look much better in stock scale either

They actually might look really good if it's possible for them to not scale up?

[Kamuchi]

Ever since starting to use GPP, I'm still loving it!
Taking my time as I slowly build things up and not rushing to "just get it done" to have some fun

Specially designed to be able to land on Iota and Ceti as main workhorse for SOI work and with a refuel be able to do interplanetary trips (this ship is my best ship ever, for now )

Some Iota work, nothing fanc yet

and reason for this post while taking my first flight to Tellumo!
Guys, this is just awsome when going there for the first time

@RocketPCGaming those 10x screenshots look awesome

@Kamuchi

There are really a few very nice pictures. Especially the Tellumo pictures I find very nice.

Your vehicles are also very interesting. Did you manage to land on Lilli? If not, I have a tip in the spoiler for you. (Maybe you want to find it out by yourself, therefore the spoiler)

Spoiler

Here is the corresponding post from my mission report

A Journey to Tellumo

In short:

At the equator the surface speed is so high that you reach the escape speed of the planet and will be thrown out of the system.
But where is that not the case? ...... At the poles

@astroheiko thanks andnot yet, I actually have the ship in a polar orbit after figuring that one out, but that also made me aware that I had no drill on the refinery, lol  

The thing is, after scanning Lili, I got this and wanted to land on it to see what it is and if it would give better resources

@astroheiko just of the south pole, a nice tiny flat piece of land with like 80% of sunlight, works like a charm 

Spoiler

Still need to check out what the heck that resource spot is, but easier to do with fuel in the tanks

@Galileo 8K textures, I'll buy another set of 16gb ram just to run GPP! as ksp is already pushing over 10gb on ultra

I have been experimenting with making 8k textures out of the existing 4k textures. Its coming along ok. but the file size is absolutely huge. the size goes from 10.6 mb for Gael textures to 42.6mb.. 

for now i only intend to make the gael system 8k but you never know.  The reason i went 4k was really just for Mac users as some macs cannot use textures larger than 4k.  

here is a sneak peak at Gael in 8k though sans clouds

That looks stunning

If you in the future decide to do everything in 8K as a seperate download for pc's not to overburden the download size for normal users, I will not hesitate to throw this into my pc just for your mod https://www.alternate.nl/html/product/information/page.html?articleId=1278978&channel_code=544&ad_id=41451789236&s2m_product_id=IFIG7U23&utm_source=adwords-shopping&s2m_campaign=DEACTIVATED&gclid=CIHPkZ7AzNICFe0W0wodeNoNtA

Now you're making me want to go from stock fun size to hardcore 10x LOL

Alright, I'm prepared!

@Galileo

Holy sh ... Do not dare. 

Then I have to build a new PC.

[Akira_R]

@Galileo Bring it on!!! I already upgraded to 32Gb of RAM in my monster!!!

[eberkain]

Yes, you get my vote on higher res textures, looks great!

[MaxL_1023]

My computer melts into a puddle of goo just trying to load KSC - maybe I need an upgrade. 

Trying to find a balance between RO (tedious after awhile, also interplanetary missions are insane in terms of launch requirements) and stock (the first liquid engine I unlocked could put a probe into orbit using one stage).

@Galileo you should have received an email, reception was poor over here (should make that button slightly bigger ;)) ♥

What about adding an optional download like rss does? 

I'd prefer to use 8k
