Graphics mods

[DoctorDanny]

Greetings,

 

Could you guys recommend me some good graphics mods?

I'm specifically looking for mods that make the skybox and the planets look better.

GRAPHICS (beautification)

Planetshine, RVE/EVE, Scatterer, DistantObject(?)

planet shine makes reflections off the planets more visible

RVE adds clouds, and makes the terrain look like it has cities on it

Scatterer makes atmosphere look WAAAY better, sun looks more shiny, and planets with atmospheres can have shadows of other bodies on them

Distant object allows you to see planets from where they are without going into map view. They look like stars but they move very slowly.

 

 

SKYBOX

Rareden's Real 8k Skybox for Texture Replacer

 

 

None of these mods should be over 100 mb, but remember. KSP is (iffy) when it comes to optimization and can cause ram issues (crashing), so do not get them if your computer cannot handle it.

If you have trouble finding them on teh interwebz, download CKAN and put it into the KSP folder, open it up and search for them. EVE would Environmental Visual Effects or something like that, and CKAN will put the mods in the appropriate places. When it's done installing them for you, just run the game as normal (warning) it will take longer to load the game the first time because it has to patch a bunch of stuff.

Hope my mod suggestions helped!
