Have to remember, KSA uses a custom framework BRUTAL built on Vulkan, not an established game engine with a tons of abstractions, virtual textures and all the bells and whistles something like UE5 has. Currently texture memory allocation is basically static, and while very efficient for...

Biomes Biomes allow you to define various <Materials> and <ProceduralModifiers> (covered in the following posts) within a planet's Terrain system so that areas of a planet can have a different appearance, especially when close up using detail maps and displacement. KSA uses two maps for...

Planet Definition (XML) You can include textures however you like in a mod, however I recommend putting them in the Textures folder, and if you end up with a lot should probably organize them into sub-folder like Textures/MyPlanet/MyPlanet_Diffuse.dds. Excluding the additional required XML...

Naming Conventions Once you have your final textures, I recommend following the KSA standard naming conventions, for example MyPlanet_Diffuse, MyPlanet_Normal, MyPlanet_Height, etc. This will make it much easier to remember what is what and avoid spelling mistakes which will CRASH THE GAME AND...

So, you want to make your own planets? 😌 Don't we all. Well, in KSA it is pretty easy, as long as you have some time and patience, and maybe enough VRAM! 🫠 If you are a seasoned profeshional, you can just skip ahead to the section on Batch Files, otherwise I recommend you stick with me...

Hi, so here's the change that caused this, and the fix: Revision 2859 Separated references to SubParts from their definitions. This helps prevent duplicate definitions and allows us to give each SubPart instance its own ID separate from the template ID. Moved all inline-defined SubParts out...

Just some small systems for those unable to run the whole solar system. All credit to Rocketwerkz! Feel free to make requests if you have any, but I won't be adding any additional textures, to keep these tiny I only reference existing textures from the Core files. Download links (Google Drive)...

Note: This was just a test of making a rocket out of parts, it is outdated and won't work in the latest version. I will probably roll this and my spaceplanes mod into one as soon as we have staging and a proper editor. Cheers!
