Wow, nice work

This looks very nice! Duna was made so boring in one of the past updates and badly needs an overhaul like this. Although I'd prefer it if it didn't actually change any properties of the stock bodies, just their terrain. If you just did a Duna retexture I'd probably use that. 

How does this work with anomalies and mods like scansat? Also are there any performance implications?

Wow! These look amazing!

Same here ... Instead of changing diameter, gravity and removing Ike, I'd rather have the two moons extra.

I like what OP did with Duna ... Makes me wanna study the inner workings of Kopernicus.

It works perfect with scansat. Unfortunatly all anomalies are now burried deep under ground.  But scanner should  by able to find them anyway.

I saw some FPS drops when detailed terrain view or  map view is loading but except this, performance is very simillar to stock ksp.

RAM consumption is also relatively small. ( something around 60 MB ).

If this is a problem, I can change Duna properties back and restore Ike in next relase.

New relase is coming! 

Planned changes in v0.2 : 

- Minmus will be reworked. 

- Ike will be restored. 

- Duna properties will be changed back. 

- Some basic experiments will be add to Ikarus and Demin.

Some of your cliffs their seem a bit much, and there are some points which could to with rounding off, but otherwise, it looks like you've captured the blobby wavy smooth forms that define Minmus.  Definitely looks like something you'd find on Minmus,

That! That would be such a cool base site. There are even ramps into the caldera at the top and bottom left.

Stock Minmus should really have features like this imo, very suggestive of cryovolcanism.

Great mod, especially the Duna muns.

The height maps look a bit.... pixely?

[KerikBalm]

Well, I can clearly see you've made use of a mars heightmap... and merged it with some other heightmap... I've become very familiar with mars topology....

I did my own little "rework" of the stock system... I would over sell it to call it an "inner planets mod" analogous to the excellent outer planets mod...

My little modset adds:

* 1 trojan of Kerbin (uses callisto height and textures from RSS) about the size of Mun

* 2 "asteroids" with Vesta and Mercury textures to be analogous to Vesta and Pallas, and keep Dres company

* A "mars with oceans" planet where Duna used to be: 450 km, 0.5 surface gravity, 0.2 atmospheres, contains O2

- Duna becomes a moon of the above planet, Ike becomes a moon of it as well,but further out so that its somewhat similar to minmus.

Unfortunately... I wouldn't want to also install your revamped Duna... because I don't want 2 planets right next to each other that clearly use the same mars heightmap
