JoolPlus: Kopernicus Edition [ALPHA RELEASE!]

[Sylandro]

The next update will add moons to Orbornio. Anyway, here's what i have planned for future updates:

-Finish up and add the rest of Wexx's moons.

-A new texture for Manley.

-Phobos and Deimos analouges for Duna

-Kallipo, the Callisto analouge, and Lama, the Amalthea analouge.

- Moons for Pippitus

- And Faz. (In case if you were wondering, Faz used to be a moon for Eve that was covered in crystals, but was scrapped in development because the crystals turned out to be a bit buggy.)4

Anyways, two dev shots for you!

KopernicusTech support, perhaps? Turns out memory usage is a nonissue, you just need to export the .bins.

Once the new version is released, i may look into KopernicusTech support.

It's pretty easy to do.

Also you should really improve the textures for Orbornio and Pippitus, right now they look like Uranus and Neptune but recolored.

That's what i was going for!

DoublePost: JoolPlus (and Eskamoujo) will be on hold. I might make a new Kopernicus Core/KopernicusTech planetary system, maybe a alternate JoolPlus if you don't like Wexx, Orbornio, Pippitus and Ploouto?

Anyway, plus, Hyugens has been nothing but a pain in the rear end. Here's Hyugen's part in the Wexx.CFG file.

TriplePost: So uh, i decided to make a photorealistic Wexx.

I took a Cassini image of Saturn, changed the hue and tint of it, and i made the rings white. With Paint.net. So yeah.

[Sylandro]

Quadruple post: Hyugens is finally working. It's a bit more oceanic than i thought it would, but atleast it's sucessful!

But also, Wexx now has gaps in it's rings!

Speaking of rings, Jool now has a improved, more realistic dust ring,

BONUS:

Any plans to update to Kopernicus?

[Sylandro]

Sorry if this is a mega necrobump, but i honestly, i'm not sure.

[Amedee]

This may be a necrobump, but none of the download links work?

If it's a matter of time and resources, I volunteer to look into it. Converting to Kopernicus would not manifest sufficient new creativity to be copyrightable so it wouldn't be a derivative work in terms of the CC-BY-NC-ND, right?

[amarius1]

Download link nkt working... pls fix.

[Sylandro]

I'm currently working on a overhaul, please be patient.

But yes, i will be moving this to a new thread.

[SnakePlanet123]

Is there a Uranus analogue?

You should also add Harvest, Valit, Pergas, Kralus, Ganag, Keelon, Corolet, Rega, Neptune analogue, and make Eeloo in a binary system with another dwarf planet that is the analog of Charon so that it makes a better Pluto analogue.

I'm guessing this thread/mod is dead?
