An Update on RSS-Reborn and a new project.
Hey ya'll! It's been a long time since I've made a post here on patreon as I am much more active on my discord which you can join using the pinned post.RSS-Reborn was one of the first independent projects I created and as its grown to become larger its become more unwieldy and strayed away from the essence of KSP which is the fact that this is supposed to be a game.I focused too much on including the highest resolution textures, regar...
Merry Chirstmas! | New Scatters
Heya everyone! Hope ya'll have been having some happy holidays.Over the past few days I've been working on parallax scatters for Earth.They're rather basic right now but I'm planning on adding lots more with various species of plants, trees, types of rocks, and maybe some more fun additions like wildlife.I can't thank ya'll enough for supporting me, and I hope you all have a happy holidays and a great New Year's!

Quick update
Heya everyone, quick update since I’m currently on vacation.I’m currently working on Reworked tropical clouds Cirrus Clouds Fog/Rain for earth Parallax textures for the moonAdditionally, would a discord server be something you all are interested in? If so I’ve been toying around with the idea for a bit and will probably send on invite here by Oct 6th.Once again, I can’t thank y’all enough for supporting me.
Parallax Support
Quick little patreon sneak peak at some custom parallax configs that I'm working on.Just like everything else in RSS-Reborn, this will be completely independent from any other stock config, so this isn't just reusing the same old textures from Parallax_StockTextures.For the technical ones amongst you, I'm no longer using cbNameLater for Earth as it's generally just an ass when it comes to Parallax, This means that Scatterer, EVE, ...

New Ozone Support. 64k Earth, Mars, and Luna are now built in. Quite a few atmosphere fixes. Venus now has 2D clouds, Volumetrics are planned but it's just to get something there. Many other minor improvements over the old version.Currently Planned: Weather (Re-adding). Cirrus Cloud...
Automating MTE (A quarter of it anyways)
Well, second one, this time on my rather terrible code which I'll probably remake eventually, anyways...The thought occurred to me the other day that I need to try to get some real coding experience, as most of what I do in KSP is not that. I figured a good first project would be writing a script that will automatically normalize the heightmap values. I assumed C++ would be a good start, ImageMagick had a plugin for it after all and I thought...
Remaking 64k Textures.
Well here's the first little dev diary/update thing.Currently remaking 64k textures for RSS-Reborn, similar to what EVO and PRVE-64k have, this time I'm not reusing the same old textures PingoPete made back in 2016 for RVE64.The reason I'm doing this is pretty simple, PingoPete cut out spots for the citylights, which just looks awful because you end up with random gaps in the texture, I tried recovering them through the alpha channel ...
Volumetric Clouds and RSS-Reborn
Heya! This is quick little overview of my RSS-Reborn project.It started out as a fun little project to create a nice stable platform for MTE but has evolved into its own branch of RSS, I'm currently planning on fleshing out every planet and moon with everything it could possibly need, new textures, new scatterer configs, new volumetric cloud configs, new parallax 2.0 configs, new terrain meshs, everything.Currently I'm using this repo as ...
