FYI new version of scatterer most likely brakes most parts of this mod. Previous version 0772 works fine for me

Can confirm, especially Eve is looking funky. The rest of the bodies seem unbroken, but they do look somewhat different from previous scatterer versions, eg. a more saturated blue for Kerbin.

Oh, I was already thinking that I did something wrong. Kerbin's atmosphere is looking a bit... thick

Spoiler

Is the atmosphere supposed to look like that at 79 km ASL?

Seems that it's a scatterer issue

That might be a base Scatterer thing, there were a couple of posts in the Scatterer thread reporting the same blue glow (which extends up to at least 100km, if my last launch is to be believed).

Yep, downgraded scatterer to  0.0772 and it worked fine

[adriangm44]

Is the problem with Scatterer already fixed?

Apparently not. Needed to downgrade it. And now I'm getting trouble making sunflares work again... Not sure why. The fix cfg file worked fine for me before but maybe I forgot how to apply it properly.

UPD: got it working. Sunflare component of scatterer wasn't even installed, although CKAN listed it. Downloaded it manually and sunflares appeared, no need for the old fix. Just make sure to downgrade scatterer to 0772

Cant even get past the menu the mod makes kopernicus say "kopernicus was unable to load the custom planetary system."

I would love any help!

Don't think Kopernicus is even used in the current version of Spectra. Are you using the latest one? And I guess Spectra isn't compatible with any planetary expansions either way. So maybe just delete Kopernicus?

If the question is how to make them work together than I don't know very much about it. But probably makes sense to look into Kopernicus configs and maybe at least reinstall them.

Hmm, i'll try that.

Hey all, apologies for my absence from updates; I've been away from KSP for the past months and I'm sadly unsure what's causing the sunflare bug; if anyone knows more, or has a solution, I'm happy to work on getting it into an official release.

[Benzo Kerman]

@HafCoJoe Just in case you didn't know, there is a new Scatterer version that has been quite re-worked since the previous version. I don't know if it is this in particular that causes the sunflare bug, but it does cause some other bugs when using the Spectra Scatterer configs.

[AbsoluteHuman]

BTW, is Spectra currently truly incompatible with SSCEP (Stock Scatter Collider Enabler Patch)? I've been using it lately but CKAN stops me from installing them together. I installed it manually and it seems to work...  Maybe some CKAN info needs to be updated? (not sure if it is in SSCEP or Spectra). I get weird texture flickering on the Mun surface (and not other bodies) but looks like it is associated with Kopernicus (SSCEP requirement) and not the mod itself.

Or... Is the real reason of incompatibility with Spectra the Kopernicus mod itself? Then it's sad. At least the sunflares still work fine (with downgraded Scatterer)!

Hello, I'm experiencing a glitch with Duna.

I've posted the same issue on Reddit, but so far I haven't gotten any satisfactory answers.  Duna looks bluer in that post because I messed around with EVE clouds, which may actually be connected to the issue.

As you can see, Duna has gained blue coloration and EVE seems to be messing up. (Only cloud config available is "DunaAtmoScatterBlue", and the name is invalid(?))

 

- I have already reinstalled both Spectra and EVE several times

- All other planets look as they should

- I am at a loss for what to do

Thank you in advance for any help.

Forgot to ping HafCoJoe

[HenriJayy]

- Troubleshooting did not work

- Using an older version of Scatterer also did not work

I also couldn't've tampered with EVE, as I don't know how even to use the settings.

Help

Forgot to mention if I tampered with EVE or not

Troubleshooting:

•  
• Duna is completely blue (more than in the trailer/pictures): You probably clicked `save` in the EVE GUI. Pressing save breaks some of my ModuleManager configs. Don't press save and you'll be fine. If you do press save, reinstalling Spectra will fix this.

That's from the OP. It seems almost impossible to have another cause for that very specific problem... right? My Duna looks good (I'm not using Scatterer). So... I suppose you didn't properly nuke the related mods and redownload them. Did you delete the mod folders in the Gamedata folder? If that really doesn't work then you need to post a KSP log file. I personally can't help further but nobody can help without more details. Are you using CKAN?

I think I figured out a solution. In the EVE menu in-game, how do you delete DunaAtmoScattererBlue?

- I was using CKAN until I last had to reinstall every mod. It now bugs out, asking to install mods that are already installed, so now I'm not using CKAN. I did delete the mod folders before replacing them, yes. I didn't Cut/Paste.

[Krazy1]

So I installed Scatterer to get the sunflares to work, and they do work, but now Eve looks like a big eyeball. I think this is nothing new but I didn't see pictures so here's some. It would be great if both worked.

More issues.

- Kerbin only has sparse clouds. No real cloud formations appear, it's just these clouds all the time. [Other relevant mods installed: Latest versions of EVE and Scatterer]

Other issues I won't get into:

 - Eve has blue clouds in some places

- Duna is still blue, had to delete the EVE configs

I think I'm gonna try reverting to a previous version of Spectra.

[HenriJayy]

Update: It did not work

[xD-FireStriker]

is there an updated scatterer config? 

[Geomacpac23]

Somehow this is better than AVP

[Krazy1]

Hi @HafCoJoeAt least 3 of the custom Scatterer settings are not being loaded from the scatterer config.cfg file when Spectra is installed. 

Please see diagnosis over on that thread.

No need to bother him, he just provides custom settings. Just delete the .cfg included in spectra or override it if you want.
