Here's another look at the rings.

Was testing the transition on kerbol, this is what it will look like the closer you get.

That looks amazing! I'm glad this mod is coming along so well. Honestly, this mod is better than any parts mod. I couldn't play without it.

Here's an album of the new clouds made by the wonderful Erona.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! (I'm over exaggerating, aren't I?)

Definitely not! I am at the same level of YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!! as you

Sometimes I worry about myself... Ah well, it's worth it for this!

[falken]

Got this working. Now you can set up asteroid bases in Jool's rings!

Really? Can I? Can I can I?

ALL STARMAX! AND STARWOLF! SCRAAAMBLE!

[Grunf911]

Sonic,

Do you need to track the asteroids in Jool ring to intercept them (and make them exist), or there is a chance you might accidentaly hit one when i.e. coming into Jool for an aerobrake ?

Love the new clouds. The first version felt a bit too cloudy. This one looks spot on

[Tic-Tac]

Is there a way to disable the mod on the moons?

I love what it does to planets with atmosphere, but the layers on minmus or Mun kill it for me :/

I've got to second this; the mod is great, but for me cloulds on airless bodies just break immersion.

You can always just edit the conf file manually and remove all cloud layers that you don't like, but I'd prefer if the file itself was split up in something like (1) atmosphere clouds (2) mun clouds (3) cities, so everybody could install precisely what they want.

[RogueMason]

Mason, switch positive and negative x and z.

Ex:

GalaxyTex_PositiveX = GalaxyTex_NegativeX

GalaxyTex_PositiveZ = GalaxyTex_NegativeZ etc etc..

1. Of course you could.

2.Renamed the files accordingly, I put the skybox in, looked around, saw what rotations were required, and then it all matched up

I did it. It racked my brains so badly that I nearly screamed, but I finally managed to sort the whole thing out.

Thanks for the help guys, and thanks Sonic for the idea of using the LMC. I quite like the thought that the Kerbals reside there as opposed to our own Milky Way

[Unicron]

Now, do you need 23.5 I have just have .23

And It keeps crashing.

I have EVE

What else do I need to prevent it from crashing?

It might be worth updating. It might not have anything to do with your problems but... ASTEROIDS!

You can just hit ALT+N in game and remove what you don't want. This is the easiest way of doing it, especially on the new EVE version where every layer can be named so you know exactly what you want to delete.

Here's some things I've been changing.

#1 - Changed some of Kerbin's settings. What do you guys think?

#2 - Here's dres with a tiny ring system that will also have it's own asteroids.

#3 - Here's what Jool looks like and without any extra feed back, will most likely be the final Jool.

Jool is looking good but why would Dres have rings? (not that i don't like it, its just strange...)

Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Kerbin looks spectacular.

Hey, Im having a problem. When the game loads, the cloud texture loaded on kerbin is joollayers2. Is there a way I can fix this?

.....what? How the..wh...what? I mean...I...I guess you can just change the texture back to kerbin1...but...what?

[stanz250]

Weird right.

because it would be in the asteroid belt... it is a dwarf, after all!

[Thesonicgalaxy]

I think you're going to have to go to ask rbray(EVE creator) about that one. I know EVE isn't mac friendly, but how did it actually change cloud layers?

Anyway, was testing everything as release is nearing, so I grabbed some screenshot and they are available to slap on your desktops.

I've also posted an update on the Dev thread HERE.

I'm not sure if it breaks the immersion, since there is dust on the moon that may look like this, but when you're used to the good ol' Mun without it, it's a bit strange

Thanks !

Wait, are we talking about the Mun or Minmus?

[Kerbollo11]

how would i remove features i don't like for example auroras when v5 is out

[Kerbollo11]

could i see a closeup picture of the mun

[stanz250]

I don't know. I've been messing with the Configs for a while now and I'm getting nothing. Worst case I'll just get rid of the Jool layers 2 texture and see what happens.

EDIT: After removing that texture it loaded Joollayers1. The kraken just doesn't like E.V.E.
