Will this mod be added to CKAN?

No, as of 0.9.9 Infinite Discoveries no longer operates within KSP and instead generates a mod folder inside KSP.

Rescale and realistic stars can be accessed in the "Gameplay Settings" config located inside the mod!

 

How to install Infinite Discoveries:

1. Find a place to put it (anywhere works, except for the KSP directory.)

2. Move the "InfiniteDiscoveries" folder to the aforementioned place you found to put it in.

3. Install ImageMagick (optional, best if you can though) https://imagemagick.org/script/download.php
(ImageMagick is NOT a ksp mod, it is a standalone program! Install it like any other program.)

3.1 (The right version is "ImageMagick-7.1.1-15-Q16-HDRI-x64-dll.exe" which takes some time to scroll down to.)

4. Install Kopernicus into KSP.

How to use:

1. Run the "InfiniteDiscoveries" shortcut inside the InfiniteDiscoveries folder, you can also make a shortcut to access it easily.

2. Set your target KSP GameData folder in the folder browser.

3. Adjust whatever settings you want.

4. Press the big "Start Generator" button.

5. Wait until the panel on the right says that the generator is finished.

6. Start KSP and enjoy!

5. Once the planets generate, you HAVE TO delete the "GenerateSystem" folder due to the game freaking out over DLLs inside it.

5. Once you're done, start KSP! If you installed it correctly, it should work perfectly fine!

 

You can install Sigma Dimensions for realistic star sizes as it is enabled on default:

https://github.com/Sigma88/Sigma-Dimensions/releases

Settings for rescale are located in the Gameplay Settings config!

 

If you want custom loading screens, then Install Sigma Loading Screens: https://github.com/Sigma88/Sigma-LoadingScreens/releases

 

How to install galaxy mode:

Put the "Infinite_GalaxyMode" folder in your KSP GameData folder!

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SYSTEM REPLACERS!

Additionaly, you can install Sigma Replacements Skyboxes for a completely black skybox https://github.com/Sigma88/Sigma-Replacements/releases

You do not need to generate new stars to use galaxy mode, however all stars generated prior to 0.9.6 will behave strangely.

 

Okay, so you want to use this with more control... How to install this THE HARD WAY!

Is it normal to the app just closes when you "Press any key" on the final of the installation? Cuz it said that the download time was 100 minutes and it just closed.

is it when you input the star amount, max planets and max moons or is it when it already generated the planets

oh my god... windows deleted the empty folders again

please stand by whilst the functional version gets uploaded!

i kinda have a problem where the shortcut leads to the documents file? do you know how i could fix it?

Expand  

you can directly run the exe in the GenerateSystem folder

also the newest version should have this issue fixed, assuming you're not using the newest version

did you get the mod from spacedock or github?
do you know the exact version of the mod?
did you accidentally delete any important folders?
can you try redownloading then reinstalling the mod?

oh yeah forgot to ask, what operating system are you running it on?

i just downloaded the latest version and it ran perfectly fine for me, do you have any antivirus programs that might prohibit exe files from literally doing anything?
