so is a sub-moon of minmus out of the scope?

Also, here's an idea: one or two trojan asteroids that share the orbit of jool, so we can recreate Lucy!

Those trojans were within Exo's ideas. I think I might try to implement a few of them in the future, if she's not doing it already in her rekerjiggering of MPE.

Wait, is that what Exo is working on?!

She's got other mods in the works too; she'll probably come and post them when she's ready. I think her revamp is gonna be a little better than mine though.

COMING SOON FOR 1.2:

- The two new bodies I've been working on!

Spoiler

One of their names is already revealed... see if you can find it!

- New science definitions (magnetometer)!
- Bugfixes and upgrades as necessary.

Hoi there, I am one of the current maintainers of NH(there's a community edition with some additions (NHCE Github repo)) and I saw in your spacedock post that you're thinking of NH support. You don't need to worry about it. The Community edition supports the prerevived version and I will add support for new bodies. Sorry if this sounds confrontational.

Ah, thanks! I appreciate it! I'll be sure to see how this all pans out. Excited to see where some of these new bodies go!

[Interplanet Janet]

MPE 1.2 is out!

• Added Doppler and Dyva
• New science defs for magnetometer
• Bundled with ModuleManager
• Fixed Quazen normal map
• Fully DDSified

[Interplanet Janet]

1.2.1 is out. Forgot to add the maps for Doppler and Dyva. My bad!

dyva looks like a trash bag, lol

 

bloody space trash bag, lil beige trash bag

Yes. I changed the textures to DDS and made them OnDemand. While editing your craft into orbit around these bodies does cause a bit of lag, it's nothing that can't be fixed without just exiting and reentering the SOI.

I was going for more a butter cookie, but that works too.

Hey everybody! Thanks for getting MPE Revived over 1,000 downloads on SpaceDock. I genuinely appreciate it! This past day has broken records for downloads: 71 over the course of one single day!

[Kerbal Productions]

Congratssssssssss!

Hey @Interplanet Janet! Thanks for reviving Exo's work. Since we're in a new thread, I figured I'd let everyone know @hemeac and I made some configs for MPE back in 1.8. I didn't see them posted here (albeit I hardly looked), and they might need some tweaking (which I may be open to doing in the future), but here they are. I also have another patch for principia which I was working on back then, and will try to finish now that I'm getting back into things (I will also be releasing a principia patch for stock, OPM, and perhaps other planet packs like extrasolar).

Oh, thanks! I had no idea these even existed. Maybe I could adapt these into the next version.

If you look at the science defs, you may find a couple of interesting things regarding Havous. I'll see if I can put those in as a config.

[funnelton]

Congrats on the release!

I thought it looks like 2 bags of flour stitched together

[Interplanet Janet]

For the upcoming launch of Lucy, I will be working on Trojans. At least one or two should be coming out by the launch date.

[TRAPPIST-1E]

@Interplanet Janet  Just a quick bug report: the bodies have more subdued shapes than the pictures shown, it changed for me after the update where the bodies were converted to DDS

Spoiler

Pictures here:

Dyva

Havous

Edas

All other bodies have this sort of problem, but these are the most noticeable

I am on Mac in version 1.12.2

aaaaaaaaaaaaaand here I am again, won't even getting a kilometer from the surface of those trojan asteroids 

[Interplanet Janet]

Lucy. Diamond. Yeah.

I've noticed that the map view is getting pretty crowded,  and it's starting to make inter-planetary flight hard to see.

This is a crowded mod, I must admit. I have considered making a variant called MPE Lite which only includes the most significant bodies, however.

Though to do that, I'd probably have to make a poll about which bodies people like the best, which may not come for a while.

I'll check this out, recache my files. The configs should be about the same as everything else though. But then again, I'm on Windows.
