[1.2.1] Outer Planets Mod (2.1) - Active development has moved, see first post for new thread

[Rodger]

Another issue with textures here, tho it isn't just white planets for me:

All planets from OPM are like this (including Eeloo)

I'm playing without scatterer (tho was happening when I had scatterer too), and with SVE. Not sure what would be causing this, anyone else have any ideas?

Edit: just saw people talking about this in the Kopernicus thread. Looks like a DDS texture issue on Mac.

Not sure it's just Mac. I had this issue in Win10 DX11 (with and without scatterer). It was also happening to Kerbal head textures from Texture Replacer. Switching to png and DX9 got rid of the bad textures. Could it be a stock issue?

You are either playing on Linux or a Mac or you are forcing OpenGl or DX11. This is an issue with the textures being in dds format. OpenGl seem to have an issue with them. (directX11 will have this effect even with .png files.)

@CaptRobau What i would suggest is making your textures for OPM ALL .png. or at least making a version for the Mac and Linux users that only has PNG textures.. It is what i had to do for my planet pack and for SVT. The only downside to this is the amount of ram that png files use. With x64 thought that isn't as big of a deal as it used to be. 

As for the white planets that occur when switching from vessel to vessel or scene to scene, that is a conflict between Scatterer and Kopernicus calling on the same color and normal maps. I dont know why Scatterer calls on them, but it does. To remedy this, add  useOnDemand = false to any celestial body that has an atmosphere that may get a scatterer cfg in the future.

I get this on Linux. I normally use Full Res graphics. I found a quick fix workaround is to switch Texture Quality in the game graphics settings down to Half Res and then immediately switch back again to Full Res. Performing a rendering reset in this way makes it go away - at least until the next game reboot.

Awesome, that worked! Thanks!

Good idea, I'll make PNG texture pack for Mac/Linux/OpenGL. No sense hampering the experience of the majority, so I'll make it an optional download for those with issues.

Didn't know the white planet issue could be fixed that way. A MM config should be able to fix that automatically if Scatterer is in effect. I'll add that to the patch.

Ok so I handed up my logs a few pages back in reply to the short and kinda passive aggressive "No logs no support" reply and well I haven't heard anything since supportwise. I have read all the posts up until now and I see no indication anything has changed beyond some people seem to have it working somewhat and the dev was waiting for something else to update. So any answer to my issue? Am I waiting on a fix? Has it been fixed? Is it a compatibility issue? What's happening?

Is there anything I can do to help you give me more support?

Or any for that matter?

I'm sorry if you've been ignored. I'm sure it wasn't intentional. People probably just got distracted by other problems.
Now, I'm no expert, but it sounds like your issue (crashing before reaching the main menu, was it?) could be an issue with memory. Are you running on 64-bit?
It would be much easer with the logs. I forget which folder they're generated in on Windows, but I'm sure someone can help you with that.

I took a look at your crash log. For the future, please upload your "output.lod", it's more useful to find where the issue is.

However, in your case, as CommanderSmith said, you crashed cause of the 32 bit executable. Try to use the 64 bit one and probably your game will run well enough.

Hopefully 1.2 Would work soon

It does ?   Sweet.  Going to install it. 
The Main thread title was misleading btw, but I figured I'd check it nonetheless

Should I get the new version of Copernicus or something?  Or just redownload OPM from the main thread and it contains everything ?

Download the latest version of kopernicus and then this, then everything should work fine

[Francois424]

Okay Thanks !

I use WINE to run winduz version of KSP, works much better than native Linux build

Im Using Mac and 1.2 OPM does not work any advice? (By not working Nothing is beyond Jool but Eeloo in it's stock orbit)

You need the latest kopernicus. It does work

I can only assume you have installed incorrectly.  Can't help you more unless you provide logs and probably a screenshot of your gamedata folder

Wait Galileo you made SSRSS? Another mod i had diffuculties instaling.
Well i am going to ask Capt for some screenshots of how the gamedata folder should look.

I am a big fan of your creations Galileo

If you upload a screenshot here I can tell you if it looks right, I have a working OPM install to compare it to, as do a lot of other people here (I imagine).

Seems like 1.2.1 patch broke Kopernicus. OPM was working perfectly with KSP 1.2, but not 1.2.1

I second this.  I get an error message on the loading screen (game still loads) saying that

"These mods are incompatible with KSP 1.2.1:

Kopernicus

Scale"  *

 

* I am trying to track that one down now.....

That's simply AVC reporting a KSP version mis-match vs. the mod's stated compatibility. I don't know that any of the 1.2.1 bugfixes would have any effect on mods.

edit: I had no idea that Kopernicus was very strict about what versions it would function on. I stand corrected.

I have lost the planets from OPM.  They do not show up in the tracking centre.  Eeloo is back in its stock orbit too.  

 

Edit:  I will delete OPM folder from gamedata.  Will reinstall from Spacedock
