K this might be an old post but that background is beautiful! Almost reminds me of Homeworld if any of you know that game. Nicely done.

Just remembered that I made this, so I went ahead and updated everything to .dds. Should load faster, now. I'll also add a non-ddsified download, in case somebody wants that.

 

EDIT: I removed the PNG download.

That's awesome, I'm definitely getting that mod when I get the full game.

Hi there @Vaporo, you've chosen on Kerbal Stuff to have your mod added to CKAN, but your mod's installation instructions involve deleting files that don't belong to your mod, and CKAN by policy will not do that.

Well, a CKAN version doesn't actually exist. I was going to create one when I uploaded it to Kerbalstuff, but I was lazy and never bothered. I can't seem to remove the CKAN indicator from Kerbalstuff, so for now I'll just put a note on the description that there is actually no CKAN. I might go ahead and create it, if I get some free time.

Sorry, I was a bit hasty. I thought TextureReplacer came with a skybox, but since it doesn't your mod should be fine. I might have to make two CKAN entries, one with the skybox EnvMap and one allowing reflections.

Texture Replacer doesn't actually use the ENV maps anymore, except maybe as a legacy/performance feature. They're only still in the download because having them doesn't hurt anything. I've updated the installation instructions to make that clear.
