Making KSP Hyper-Realistically Beautiful

[al.wallace]

Hello,

So i've been looking for some mods to make KSP look prettier. Just asking if anybody has any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Astronomer's pack is the go-to for all the mists and clouds. I've never been able to get it to work completely.

I've tried, I eventually managed to get it to load (the game would always crash). Bu there are things that are broken with it, theres a werid texture glitch with the sun, what I thinkis model glitch in the space around Moho, and the rings on Jool are missing. This is probably because its not been updated to .90

with whatever texture pack that you like best. There really isn't a lot of mods to improve the game yet. I imagine after squad finishes up the core game they will work on the looks, but I have a feeling that it will retain the same basic aesthetic it has now with some tweaks and texture improvements.

Look up the kerbal renaissance pack...it makes for amazing screenshots. Check out the latest KSP pics on my profile for proof.

i had to delete almost all shiny blink blink mods due to ram issues, distant object enhancer is quite nice though

I Use these types of mods a lot and yes they take a lot of tinkering and such, Mine works. Although it does crash AT LEAST once a play session. And I did run into a situation where I had to disable the reflections of the kerbal visors (texture replacer mod) because it was crashing evey time, after that it loaded up fine and I was able to move on.

Just do some reading and testing out what configs you like, and you should be able to get something going.

The three latests are quick screencaps using Kerbal Renaissance.

IF KSP 2 ever happens it just absolutely has to be done in this engine:

And thats a dated tech demo- dudes a genius... vid at 2:30+ shows amazing transitions.
This doesnt answer your question for now but hey... nice hope for the future.

combination of Renaissance, astronomers visual pack and better atmospheres for me!

but as a singel pack i like better atmospheres the best i think.

but here goes :P i uses the clouds from BA and the city lights from renaissance.
ice caps and aura borialis and a few other effects from avp.

and probably some other weird combo that i forgot!

ontop of that i use sweetfx :)

if you like i can make you an upload of the whole setup.

this was made to look pretty tho more than realistic!...and not sure about the skybox but easy fix :P

finally its a kinda heavy setup and kinda rules out any heavy parts/plugin mods :P
