enewmen Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the posts! It would be fairly easy for me to bring back my experienced kerbals to the astronaut complex (before installing KSS .7) , then just spend (lots of) cash & re-build science stations and mining bases (using more high-tech parts). I will also keep all my deployed craft "parts" position in a spreadsheet in case I can move them to new orbits. My current carrier is like 1000 (Earth) hours. At worst case, I have saved planes/rockets with with VERY good designs (both stock and CTT mods) . So a new career won't be so long and painful. EDIT: Please don't post many images from the ALL. It should be a very mysterious place that requires a real crew to enter - even a pilot ! Edited October 1, 2017 by enewmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarCrusher96 Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) RELEASE: Kerbal Star Systems 0.7 (PART 1) (yes, we renamed KSS) Sorry you had to wait this long, but we think we really did a good job with this release and it was worth the wait. This is part 1 of the Kerbal Star Systems 0.7 version. Because of the size of this mod and the problems with previous versions we first want to iron out all the bugs and issues before releasing part 2. Part 2 will include the revamped Kerolon System, Kelnis System. Implementation of lore and planetpack compatibility + more... We also worked for months on a secret project. We think it's ready and we want to share it with you guys: Kerbal Star Systems has now it's own official wiki page. Here you can find everything you need to know about KSS. This wiki is still developing and growing so this is not suppose to be the final product. URL: http://kerbal-star-systems.wikia.com/wiki/Kerbal_Star_Systems_Wiki - special thx to all the contributors for helping me with this! Changes: Spoiler Kerbol StarSystem renamed to Kerbal Star Systems Chur - Analogue of comet Churyumov Gerasimenko Thes - Proteus analogue Nian - Titania analogue Ilum - moon of Hypat Hal - Haumea analogue Nyla made into an analogue of Nereid/repositioned Eeloo's texture redone to be more like Enceladus Duna looks more like Mars Jeln retextured Trytho retextured Umnyl, Aryl, and Im retextured Mun texture rotated Pol's texture modified Eeloo gets geysers (when EVE installed) Kerbin's texture reverted to modified stock version but improvedContinents stay the same as stock but there are now terrain features like mountain ranges, new rivers, and new biomes. Naith retexture/repositioned Working exospheres for various celestials in the Kerbol System (height = 10 km) Various improvements and bugfixing custom brightnesscurves for all the stars Kerbol got a realistic atmosphere, corona, ... Improvements of visuals Using the 'new' version of EVE Moving clouds for gas giants Stock sunflares are back if visuals are uninstalled Use of CTTP groundtextures instead of the old ones More custom sciencedefs (thx to @TheSpacePotato, @Calvin_Maclure and @Greatness101) New Stellar Bodies Updated Parts (thx to @JadeOfMaar) Custom groundscattering (thx to @Davian Lin) - this is still in developement and inaccuracies might occur! ** Reports of bugs and issues mentioned in the installation-(README)folder will be ignored.

enewmen Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Again, congrats on getting part 1out the door. ! I was reading the wiki a little. One idea I had was having 1-2 planets in another star system Not in the All having simple life forms "as we know it" . A living-inhabited planet will have ultra-valuable Biomes. Returning a living sample will be 100x more valuable than a soil sample from a normal planet. This planet doesn't need to be terraformed . The lore, Precursors in the All, and who built the pyramids, etc. is something different and a separate part of the story - I guess. I have another vote for "More exotic objects (black holes, neutron stars, etc) ". Something to get pilots very confused and scared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something to get pilots very confused and scared. There's Karkua, the black hole. In the meantime you can add the Kargantua mod somewhere and have +1 black hole and the pulsar.... Although, you'll have to cut out INSTANTIATOR in the meantime and deal with no epic accretion disk. I wish Karkua emitted light though. Then I could tease people with the sunflare I made for it.

Redleg1 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) Is it possible to get smooth terminators on planets like Kerbin with this mod with the visual packs? I have all the KSS stuff and its dependencies EVE, Scatterer, and that's it on this install. Sort of along the lines of this from SVE? In my game, the clouds along the terminator are all black and there is not really a smooth transition between day and night.

Just wondering. And congrats on the release of part 1! I can't wait for part 2! When I first started out with KSS in 2015, The Kerbol System became a ternary starsystem. So I called my mod Kerbol StarSystem. Now Kerbol StarSystem evolved into much more than that and the name became 'confusing'. So changing the name into Kerbal Star Systems sounded logical. 43 minutes ago, Redleg1 said: Is it possible to get smooth terminators on planets like Kerbin with this mod with the visual packs?

Planetace Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Question, from the looks of it Kerbin is reparented... So if It is reparented, is it okay to share on how you made it not glitch out immensely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
