Waz Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 17 hours ago, Proot said: I don't understand very well the issue (as far as I understand this is more related to KSP itself than to Kopernicus, right?). Precisely to avoid problems with "external" objects all I'm using are vanilla elements (but revamped and reconfigured). And seems like all them have colliders. In fact I had the colliders working at Kerbin some time ago, but since a time (I can't tell exactly when) all are vanished. In any case: many, many thanks for you priceless help! I wasn't very clear. What I mean is that stock already has some scatters defined. From looking at the Kooernicus code, if you don't give a config to turn on colliders for these, they'll still show up (and without colliders). I saw some scatters which used the boulder model and definitely didn't have colliders turned on. But I only saw them in the debugger - I couldn't see where on which planet they were defined for, nor test them in-game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poodmund Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 So it would be best practice in this case to use Kopernicus to cull all stock scatter and then re-add it through Kopernicus itself to ensure colliders are enabled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done that twice. Fortunately Thomas P. & co. have released a new Kopernicus and Kittopia Tech versions, which should be a great help to find my errors and to fix and enhance other things.

You can remove the old Texture Replacer MM part reflection patch, or Kopernicus. Either one should immediate improve your framerates. i play with reflection set to none in TR setting no need for deleting files. about kopernicus doesnt this necessary for those beautiful Effect mod adds to the game .if yes i rather keep them the frame drops is not that massive.(25 maybe 20 at lowest for short time) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent1_87 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 why Sorlon has so much gravity with 5km radios is it come from neutron star? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest something along the lines of an ASL Gravity coefficient of 0.0192m/s^2, roughly around 1% of what it currently has. @Proot, any thoughts on this?

It's just a chunk of pure Kerbolium, the substance that gives Kerbin its earthlike gravity despite its size. Of course being heavy, it normally sinks deep into the center of planets. It's also extremely cohesive and rigid, hence Sorlon doesn't collapse to a sphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like at least same az gilly or lower if possible . I want to send a roseta style mission to it. Extremely low gravity has its own fun. 25 minutes ago, Waz said: It's just a chunk of pure Kerbolium, the substance that gives Kerbin its earthlike gravity despite its size.

Well if you compare it to other bodies of small size and use the 5km radius of Sorlon as a ratio you get the following: Gilly 13km (Stock): 0.049m/s^2 ---> Sorlon 5km: 0.0188m/s^2 Hale 6km (OPM): 0.023m/s^2 ---> Sorlon 5km: 0.0192m/s^2 So around 0.019m/s^2 would be reflective on a median value between them. Then its just a case of considering Sorlon's make-up and adjusting to suit. Edited June 5, 2016 by Poodmund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proot Posted June 5, 2016 Author Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) Ajajahaha... Sorlon is just finished in the graphical side. All the rest is basically a "placeholder". Did you read the description about it? Lol. Humbly, I don't have enough knowledge about physics and astronomical objects to complete the data properly, so all your ideas are more than welcome. Including orbit, position, composition and so on... I was expecting this could be the first achievement of "Laika Sir Common Enterprises"...

About make up it should be mainly water ice and the old fashion dirt that kerbals know. 11 minutes ago, Proot said: Ajajahaha... Sorlon is just finished in the graphical side.

Drew Kerman Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) would like your feedback on this Proot. Not sure what can be done for improvements (as in by you and the mod authors) but I figure you're the best overall authority on where to start. Been looking into the overall visual quality of my game and have been very disappointed by what I see at night. Here's a look. If you ask me the quality decreases the more stuff I add (note that KSPRC itself doesn't really make it "worse" - in fact Mun is sharper-looking as it should be). Right now I'm just contemplating total removal of EVE + Scatterer for night time. Would you consider this more on the mod side or the config side? Or more of both?

I want to have a more or less "final" version before to shrink the textures. But if you had enough skills you can try to do DIY with photoshop and the nvidia plugin.

I'm working in an improved skybox, based in my own 24k version from 2013 tycho star map by NASA. And remember that you are using an unfinished version.

Drew Kerman Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I realize this is a pre-release, which is why I was inquiring whether you felt more work from your end (configs/textures) could make things better.
