Motokid600 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Im debating on wether or not I want to download the 8k texture pack for all the planets and moons. Few questions..How do these textures look from the surface? ( that's one thing I never understood about the planet re-textures. Sure gilly can look like IO, but wont it look like crap from the surface? Seeing is how the texture doesn't line up with any of the topography. ) And.. how detrimental would this be to memory usage?

View full albumPack planets and moons 8K - v0.1What is the difference between default texture and 8K?All planets are in 8K (8192 pixels) except Eve and Mun. I would add in version 0.2 alpha chanel (oceans are prettiest ) for Kerbin, Eve, Laythe. In this pack you have two version of Kerbin. With clouds and withoutIf you don't like a planet or moon just delete the png textureMegaPart 1 : OKPart 2 : OkExtract the two files in GameDataPart 1 = Moon Part 2 = PlanetsGoogle Drive : (thank to ActuallyTheOtherGuy )Download planet/moon you wantLink Performance optimizationBasically- Delete the planets or moons that you don't think they improve the graphism- For example, keep Duna, Kerbin, Jool, Laythe and delete other if you want- If you use texture without clouds, erase the one with clouds (just erase texture variants you don't use)Big Thank to eRe4s3r for the clouds, to saik0 ( www.kerbalmaps.com ) for the maps and to Tingle for the mod dude none of the links work, really disappointed.

iDan122 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) Guys why does spacex's 8k textures that i am using not showing clouds?EDIT: I edited the .cfg file since there are 2 textures for Kerbin- one without clouds and one with, one called kerbin1 and kerbin1111. In the .cfg It was kerbin1 and kerbin2 so I renamed kerbin2 to Kerbin1111, but the clouds are barely visible and are very ugly, it's like Kerbin became a mirror in places, it looks a bit as if it is covered with reflective metal. How to fix this? I saw beautiful kerbins with cool clouds. Edited October 20, 2013 by iDan122 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iDan122 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Ok I read his post and it says there are 2 textures for Kerbin, how do I tell the plugin which one to choose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tangle Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Does anyone have just a blank texture for the skybox? There aren't any stars other than Kerbol as of yet, so I'd assume no stars... I like to be able to distinguish Minmus from the stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iDan122 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Dont worry guys, I fixed it by leaving the cloud one, naming it Kerbin1 and changing the .cfg back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Here is a starless sky (box) for you. It is kind of depressing actually.Whatever you want license, cause anyone could do it in like 5 minutes, so.. yeah.http://www.datafilehost.com/d/9a122f2c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptRobau Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Did you keep the original resolution or did you make a 1x1 pixel image. I imagine if the latter were possible, it'd save some memory usage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 They are 64x64, I didn't know the min size, so I tried to be safe. Still very small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camacha Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 That is looking pretty awesome, although I am still internally debating whether Kerbals should have (facial) hair. They look pretty neat with it, but it also makes them more humans that are not humans instead of a proud seperate species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franklin Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Can someone tell me why all the textures seem to replace just fine (skybox, planets, etc.) but the heads don't? I cannot get anything but the default heads to load, and I have no idea what I'm missing. All the files are in the proper directory, and the head names in the txt file.

Franklin Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 (edited) Wasn't really happy with any of the Duna Textures I saw here. If anyone's interested these are the ones I threw together. Three in the folder right now are:1. Original Mars texture, with clouds and with accurate-to-ksp icecaps2. Truer to original KSP texture with clouds, just more detail3. Same as above without cloudshttp://www.solidfiles.com/d/2efedc200f/^Just pick the one you want and rename it Duna1.png That should be obvious.Previews:http://imageshack.us/a/img513/3729/qpqn.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img546/97/xqpm.jpgOnly problem with clouds on Duna are the massive canyons that make them look funky in places.http://imageshack.us/a/img513/9834/jt9i.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img30/3341/twk.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img835/4016/t0mr.jpgIf anyone needs the mars texture without the clouds PM me and I'll relayer my original and post it hereGoing to try EVE next. All the textures for it right now could be improved on...Any chance we could get a re-upload of these textures? I really like your work. Also curious if you ever got around to texturing any of the other planets/moons?edit: solidfiles seems to be up again, but i'd still love to see anything else you've done Edited October 23, 2013 by Franklin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThesaurusRex Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 ...How do I, um...get it to work?I put the UniverseReplacer in the GameData folder, downloaded the Jool and Eve cloud textures and spacex34's Planets and Moons (just the Kerbin textures), put them in their respective folders, and loaded up the game. Didn't see anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
