Textures are like they are, no by caprice but to fit with everything else.
You can add a lot of thing to the texture, but at the end it will not be in the surface, so imho that have no sense. I don't have as goal to add just eye candy to the game, I have as goal to enhance the stock game as much as possible.
That means that what you see in the KSPRC texture is exactly what you have in the surface.
With the Unity5 enhancements I have the hope of have more memory room to add PQS details to Kerbin with Kopernicus, wich could do similar changes, but at all levels.

But is not possible atm, imho, with the current memory management/limit.

That is true. This is just for us people who spend more time in space and/or around kerbin.  Stay low enough and they'll see the default Kerbin texture. This is just that little bit extra when looking at kerbin from space.

Will Unity 5 improve KSP performance as much as other games that use it? (Besiege,...) Also can't wait for the multi-core heaven that is awaitng in 1.1

from what i've heared it wont be leaps ahead. Though the multithreaded code execution will help allot (parts/physics) and ofcourse the lifting of the memory limit. The rest? Guestimates...

Hello, I have installed ksprc and I am having an issue that I dont know how to fix.

I am running KSPRC on a gtx 770 and i7-4770k, with -force-opengl enabled, and when my rocket is sitting on the launchpad, regardless of its size, I get 10fps. It is unplayable.

I suspect that it would be the particle clouds that are floating around but I obviously dont know. I have also already removed the reflection wrapper from texture replacer, and it did nothing.

Thanks.

Hey I just remembered something I had to do when I converted to windows 10.

Win 10 won't render KSP using DX9 properly on it's own. I know you are running OpenGL but, how much ram do you have available? I have 16GB, and I run my x64 install with 80+ mods in DX9 to avoid any adverse issues in Scatterer (like decreased FPS). DX11 works good as well I've heard, but DX9 still seems to be the best performance option when you have the hardware to run it. I tend to hover around 11-13GB of used ram while playing so be warned, you need the hardware if you want to use DX9.

And is everything supposed to be pitch black when behind the planet (except skybox)?

Hey @Joco223 If i got your point right and you found that darksides of planets is too dark for your taste or you want to bring some lightning in game. I recommend to check these mods "Ambient Light Adjustment" and dependency mod "Toolbar". With those you may be able to see your vessel again

Edit: Also for me Win10, x64 KSP, DX9 = Best Performance

2nd Edit: Sorry fellas still more advertising... I totally forgot to mention Rbray's latest masterpiece "Dynamic Texture Loader" for saving more graphics memory. Especially for DX9 users

By the way if your looking for a small performance increase and a big stability increase remove all asteroids and prevent them from spawning in the future in the Kopernicus config. ( It's at the bottom ) Helped big time for me.

Proot mentioned he's working on a performance fix. It's the mixture of the whole mod that kills the framerate. Be patient.

For the realistic texture lovers - spot the differences:

@Proot

hi,
the following Setting in the KSPRC.cfg causes for me a black Jool. (JUST with DX11; DX9 is fine)

	// @Body[Jool]
	// {
		// @ScaledVersion
		// {
			// ProceduralGasGiant
			// {
				// rampTexture = KSPRC/KopernicusExpansion/JoolRamp
				// cloudSpeed = 0.5
				// hasStorms = true
				// stormMap = KSPRC/KopernicusExpansion/JoolStorms
				// stormFrequency = 5
				// stormDistortion = 0.85
				// seed = 731983
				// distortion = 0.015
				// frequency = 11
				// lacunarity = 1.4
				// gain = 1.3
			// }
		// }

	// }

just thinking: AMD or nvidia?
dx9/11? does it appear on other rendering methods?
Have seen this before on AMD cards, have other problems on my NVIDIA(dx11), but not these

@Speadge I am running a Powercolor PCS+ r9 290 at it's "stock" speeds with the latest Crimson drivers. Interesting if this is just an AMD problem. I am able to replicate the results using the -force opengl, d3d9, d3d11 flags.

@maseo I'll start poking around with the Scatterer files and report back if I can find a workaround. Thanks.

 

On a side note: I notice that sometimes I get an invalid/missing part on save load notice about USI parts when switching between -force flags. I'm usually able to fix it by uninstalling->reinstalling the suspect mods using CKAN. I chalk that up to the quirkiness of the Win64 workaround, as I don't see anything in the log files to indicate what is going wrong.

Thanks for the replies.

Nevermind. The asteroids came back even with the probability turned to zero. Is there anything I can do to really disable them?

I think the ones coming back are the stock ones, or are there still more?

When u want less, it SHOULD work by just adjusting the settings in the said Kopernicus config for less spawning and shorter lifetime

Hi,

about your missing parts: usually cleaning ModuleManager cache file is way enough to fix that. Happens often after a failed launch of KSP.
Pro-Tip: build a script deleting that file on each launch

About the graphic issue: i think its better to check scatterer or eve thread about that as proot is "just" using this mods and adding his configs & textures. So the (AMD?-) bug may be known to one of the modders already.
Have you tried adding dedicated settings in your driver for KSP.exe? I do that by default, maybe it could just be a rendering issue u can solve by yourself?

[Bandus]

Greetings! I noticed while playing using KSPRC I am having an odd graphical issue. Basically, with a vessel in Kerbin orbit if I zoom out all the way, I see this:

 

This looks reasonable to me, however, I did notice there seem to be no clouds which I thought was odd.

However, the real issue is that when I zoom in on the vessel a bit, the land masses change to look like this:

 

I'm not sure what is causing this. Any help would be appreciated very much!

[Dix2lespace]

hi proot! I want to purpose my experience report of KSPRC. I have the same graphic bug like "bandus" and other users (but maybe we need to fix scatter) and i have instability of ksp 1.05, i can't leave my profil game to the main start menu, the KSP 1.05 instant shutdown. It's only KSPRC + KSP 1.05 in 32bit mode, (with no other mods)

After many try to install the game, i can't install the rover dude mods with KSPRC = the start loading don't works.

TY for help

@Dix2lespaceIf I understood right that your 32bit KSP is crashing during loading screen and can't even go main menu (only with KSPRC installed). This sounds like your 32bit game is running out of RAM (memory) wich usually happens around ~3.5gb limit with 32bit KSP. Usually these "visual" and some other mods wich is using lot of heavy textured files can make your game running out of that 3.5gb limit really fast. If possible try to check from "Task Manager" or other monitoring software are you running out of RAM. And if so...? there is some solutions you can try play with. Force OpenGL, force DirectX9 with "Dynamic Texture Loader" mod, KSP x64 workaround or then just try to remove some parts from KSPRC. If you are able to survive trough loading screen and can go to settings from main menu you can try to set textures to "Half Res".

Let me know if it was not 32bit RAM crash problem or/and you need further assistance...

All i can say is roll on 1.1 with x64 so we can rid ourselves of this low memory issue and enjoy Proots creation

Ok thanks a lot Murdox. I go try your advices.

[Vaporized Steel]

I've set water effects to false in the planetlist.cfg file because in v1.05 it turns water into a black glitchy mess depending on camera angle and distance to water.

Is this water graphic glitch something that can be fixed? I really hope it does because it would make me and everyone very happy.

I'm playing on Unity 64bit which should be pleasant according to the OP It's not water friendly however.

I have no problems with water effects (scatterer) on 64bit. However I am using the -force-d3d9 parameter in a shortcut to KSP.exe since memory limitation is not an issue.

This gives good performance and the least glitches

EDIT: There is however an issue with gas giants and scatterer at the moment

Hi to All!!!

I made some changes with the unique purpose of increasing the frame rate and leave intact as much as possible the magnificent work of Proot.
I don't have the knowledge to change dll or shader file, I just edited with Notepad++ some .cfg and replaced some .dll with other versions.

My Pc configuration:
i7 @4GHz, Nvidia GTX 980 (driver 359.06) and 16GB RAM (Windows10 64bit)

My KSP configuration:
"Fresh" installation of Kerbal 1.0.5 with x64-Workaround (My intent is to install many other MODS that I use once fixed the framerate problem).
In Steam i have add -no-singlethreaded -popupwindow in SET LAUCNH OPTIONS... I use DX9 because the graphics performance is much better and I never seen artifacts.
In KSP Graphic Settings is everything to the maximum, i have disable V Sync and Fallback part shader; in General Settings Max Phisics Delta-Time per frame is 0.05 and Simulate in background is disable (with this option enabled and many mods parts frequently game crash or freez).

TESTS:
No mods install, new sandbox play, go to SPH, load A300 stock (Big plane) and launching.
Without moving the mouse on the runway have 69-70 fps, in the map planet (M) 170 fps.

With KSPRC[V-0.5] same situation 16-17 fps on the runway and 29-30 in the map planet.
With changes 29-30 fps on the runway and 129-130 fps in the map planet.

CHANGES:
1) Edit files GameData\KSPRC\KSPRC.cfg (only comment, no change value)

2) Edit files GameData\DistantObject\PlanetColors.cfg 

//Color definitions for planets

//Custom planet mods can add their own color definitions! Just add another .cfg file inside your mod folder (of any name,
//anywhere inside the GameData path), and mirror the format of this document.

//The color value is just RGB values, from 0 to 255. This is the color when 100% saturated (default is 65%, see Settings.cfg).

3) Download PlanetShine 0.2.4.2

Replace PlanetShine.dll in GameData\PlanetShine\Plugins

Add CelestialBodies.cfg in GameData\PlanetShine\Config

I hope this can be of help and maybe someone will have better ideas to optimize this beautiful project.

Proot,

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Awesome work! Been waiting for this forever seems like! I sent you money

 

Cheers!

Why does Kerbin look so hazy from space once you are in game? Why doesn't it looks like it does on the main menu screen? You can see what I mean on the first post on this forum page by Bandus.

Firstly - this is a great collection and I really enjoyed it on my Win64 bit.

I had a problem in Jool, well - "Jool" to be more exact, I couldn't get within about 5 million km of the planet, the game would just chunk, but map view was okay.  When I was out further , about 25 million, I was able to be in normal view and no chunk.  Otherwise this was a great addition to the game and thank you to the team and the community for this.

I have a question, can I simply use the sun "flare" parts without the rest?

again, thank you for your time and dedication to KSP.
