Version 0.0831 for Kerbal Space Program 1.12.3

Released on 2022-02-20

Reuploaded 0.0831 after License update.

Cumulative 0.0772->0.0831 changelog:

• Fix white atmos on slower GPUs (also delete your atmosphere cache folder)
• Fix interaction between eclipses and city lights causing white planet surface (mostly noticeable on night side)
• Fix "missing property _MainTex" log spam on gas giants
• Fixed wrong scattering on ships near atmosphere edge (most noticeable as blue tint appearing on ships in orbit)
• Fixed flickering sky in reflections (most noticeable on TU parts)
• Fixed flickering clouds in reflections (most noticeable on TU parts)
• Fixed mirror image on scaled planets with in-game AA set to off
• Fix broken multi-star lighting on scaled planets with eclipses on
• Fixed 1/4 res scattering causing scattering to be insanely bright
• Removed dependency on .half files and config tool, atmospheres are now generated directly in-game and cached in "ScattererAtmosphereCache" folder in GameData. Button in-game for clearing this folder if needed. Removed assetPath param.
• New UI to easily generate and preview atmospheres in-game, with options for easily rescaling and thickening/thinning atmosphere, and an option for a quick preview to generate a lower-quality atmo very quickly. Rescale keeps the same looking by making the atmosphere taller and thinner at the same time to conserve the same look.
• Rt And RL params Removed, atmosphere height is now calculated on the fly from the parameters you enter (scale heights + scattering coeffs)
• ExperimentalAtmoScale param removed, use the rescale button
• GlobalAtmoScale param removed, replaced with scaleAtmosphereStartRadius in atmo generation tab directly
• openglThreshold param removed
• Fixed extinction not scaling correctly with atmosphere scale, improved blending of atmospheres (when atmos are in front of each other)
• Fixed horizon related issues where line-like artifacts and a break in the shading appear around the horizon level. A line can still appear on the horizon on very thick atmos, if that happens, the atmo needs to be made thinner or rescaled (taller atmo with lower scattering params will look the same but avoid the artifacts), disabling multiple scattering can also help.
• Fixed concentric circles/ring artifacts appearing on planets/scattering
• Fixed band on the horizon, previously worked around with viewDirOffset param, viewDirOffset param removed.
• Fix planets with tall atmos being lit on the dark side
• Fix clouds being lit on the dark side
• Added option to use single scattering if needed, or you prefer the look for a given planet. Multiple scattering can diverge and become unnaturally bright and show horizon artifacts on very thick atmos, a solution is to disable multiple scattering and to rescale the atmo to be taller.
• New more natural looking blending mode, more hdr-like blending
• Removed projector mode, incompatible with new blending mode.
• Added uncharted tonemapping mode for the atmosphere, produces more vibrant color tones and better contrast, less haze, added ability to switch tonemappers or disable them if you want to use your own tonemapping (TUFX or other).
• Use the new blending for clouds, preserveCloudColors option is now mostly redundant but it will be kept
• Fix clouds on other planets sometimes getting dimmed when it is night time on your current planet
• Support for light from secondary suns, secondary suns don't cast shadows, eclipses, godrays, cloud shadows, caustics/lightrays but can now light up the atmosphere and clouds
• New "cloudIntegrationUsesScattererSunColors" parameter in planetsList: When set to false, will use the real sun colors for clouds (for main sun and secondary suns), when true will use scatterer's sun colors, defaults to false.
• New "sunsUseIntensityCurves" parameter in planetsList: When set to true, both main sun and secondary suns will use the intensity from the star's intensity curve. Defaults to false for retro-compatibility.
• Make scaledSpace eclipses apply only to the main light, additional lights/suns can light up the eclipsed area
• Fix eclipse shader breaking secondary lights on scaledSpace planets with kopernicus load on demand
• Fix eclipses applying to the dark side
• Handle light extinctions for secondary suns in local space
• Fix SMAA blurring text and other cockpit elements in IVA (most noticeable with ASET and rasterpropmonitor)
• Fix godrays too dark when looking at opposite of sun direction
• Fix secondary lights on clouds being too bright
• Matched sky and scattering exposures on Laythe

Version 0.0770 for Kerbal Space Program 1.11.2

Released on 2021-05-17

• Depth buffer mode: Renders scattering effect using the depth buffer instead of re-rendering opaque objects:

  • Enables CPU and GPU performance improvements (anywhere from 17% to 41% higher fps with the stock game and scatterer)
  • Added option to render the scattering in 1/4 resolution and upsample for performance (incompatible will godrays, will auto-disable if godrays are used)
  • Compatibility with Parallax (most noticeably underwater)
  • Compatibility with trees and terrain scatters (they now get correct scattering on them instead of sticking out)
  • Disables MSAA anti-aliasing because it's not compatible with the depth buffer (Added option to use SMAA to compensate, MSAA is still used in tracking station and editor scenes so keep it enabled).
  • Depth buffer mode can be disabled in favor of the old mode if you want to have MSAA (performance and compatiblity improvements won't be available in this case)

• Faster long-distance shadow rendering (no longer need to render an additional depth buffer for shadows farther than 7km)

• Small performance improvements in the ocean + ability to further disable foam and transparency for performance on slower machines

• Performance presets and a preset loader in the KSC menu, to easily adjust quality/performance. It will also tell you your current preset by matching individual settings against presets. Scatterer will now default to "low" preset which is just the basic scattering+ocean feel free to go higher or lower depending on your specs.

• Sunflare editor in the UI, changes made here will be lost on scene changes so copy your config. (Config will also be logged when applied from the UI)

• New sunflare syntax (check wiki for details https://github.com/LGhassen/Scatterer/wiki/SunflaresConfig#syntax-version-2)

  • Support for per-element intensity and scale curves
  • Units for the distance in the curves is the parent body's radius, used to make sunflares easy to port from one star to another with different sizes
  • Support for .dds textures for the flares
  • More readable syntax, scales are supplied normally instead of inverse
  • Older sunflares stay compatible by omitting the syntaxVersion tag or using syntaxVersion=1. New sunflare syntax using syntaxVersion=2 in the sunflare config

• Sunflares are loaded directly from their individual sunflare configs (Scatterer_sunflare nodes), no longer need to have and maintain sunflare list in the planetsList file

• Better error handling when loading and clearer logging, if loading fails the stock effects will load instead of having the ocean not load. Same when atmo files are missing, display stock effects instead of loading white atmosphere.
• Configs loaded from ModuleManager are detected as such, and no longer as coming from "Laythe.cfg", config saving to disk is disabled when a ModuleManager patch is used
• Possibility to preview different SunColor values directly from the UI for fine-tuning (will not save to file though, you still have to manually edit the planetsList file after)
• De-hardcoded a gravity parameter in the ocean spectrum (previously hardcoded to 9.81 m/s^2), a value of 0 will apply the body's surface gravity. This can impact the waves look and look unnatural to us (as we are used to how waves looks on earth), old ocean configs where the value is missing will default to 9.81 as before.
• Fixed weirdly colored clouds in main menu
• Small reduction in ocean jittering in RSS

Version 0.0723 for Kerbal Space Program 1.11.0

Released on 2020-12-31

Bugfixes:

Version 0.0722 for Kerbal Space Program 1.11.0

Released on 2020-12-16

Compatible with 1.9, 1.10 and 1.11

New features:

• Added volumetric shadows (godrays). Godrays use shadow information so the quality is directly tied to shadowmap resolution and shadow distance. Godray strength can be tweaked and godrays respect atmosphere density and optical depth. Only compatible with Directx 11 (requires the unified camera setup)

• Added underwater light rays, derived directly from the caustics textures and config. Brightness of underwater light rays can be adjusted. Light rays are volumetric and respect shadows

• Added craft-wave interactions. Ocean waves are now interactible/collidable. Only compatible with Directx 11 as it requires async GPU readback

• Added override for ship recovery velocity when splashed and wave interactions are on (by default 5 m/s vs 0.3 m/s for stock), to allow ship recovery in wavy oceans

• Added overrides for water drag and crash tolerance when wave interactions are on, to make ships and seaplanes experience better (3x less drag and 3x less crash tolerance than stock by default). Seaplanes are workable but require some care and timing, it's still possible to take off with the stock gull from by going in the same direction as the waves

Fixes:

• Fix scattering effect getting cut off in the distance for RSS/Rescale

• Fix bleached/white mountains in the distance when ascending to orbit

• Fix caustics, extinction lighting, long-distance shadows and ocean shadows not working on Kopernicus suns

• EVE clouds have correct scattering and extinction based on their altitude and no longer behave as if at ocean level

• Fix EVE clouds having dark side appearing lit in some cases with EVE integration on

• EVE clouds + Sunlight extinction respect extinction thickness

• Fix some cloud flickering issues with EVE, mostly noticeable with spectra when using EVE integration

• Fix sunflares being offset from their star/planet in some cases (when the body is small)

• Fix reflections disappearing from ships when using cameraTools after 250 meters distance

• Fix ocean secondary lights causting artifacts/squares on the planet from orbit

• Fix sky reflection on the ocean not respecting sky exposure and alpha settings

• Added configurable skyReflectionStrength setting in ocean config (can be changed from UI but need to rebuild ocean to apply)

-1.1 Compatibility

-Much faster, nearly instantaneous loading, reverting a flight you no longer have to wait 10 seconds, effects enabled in map view for planets other than the active one and will load on demand

-.raw format replaced by .half format, which enable faster laoding and smaller filesize, if you created your own .raw files, they will be converted automatically to .half the first time the planet is loaded (make sure to delete any existing .half files when you copy over new .raw files)

-Option to disable scaledSpace ambient light (celestial bodies appear realistically lit and will display as crescents in the sky)

-Restored the sun corona.

-Option to ignore renderType tags, keep this on for the time being as rendertype tags seem to be gone in 1.1 and the postprocessing shader won't work without them.

-No longer need to reload the tables when switching fullscreen/windowed, only ocean needs to be reloaded.

-Added an ocean offset reset when it gets bigger than 20000, avoids floating point precision issues resulting in artifacts or a blocky-looking ocean when traveling a large distance over the ocean such as doing a sub-orbital hop or doing a fast re-entry.

Released on 2016-03-10

-Fixed compatibility with planetary rings

-Fixed lens flare not occluding correctly on bodies without atmosphere

-New option to draw the atmosphere over EVE clouds: Fixes strange-looking terminators when using both EVE and scatterer and looks smoother in general, however it makes the transition from PQS to scaledSpace more problematic and introduces some new issues. Can be toggled of from the main menu or for individual planets throught the planetsList.cfg file.

-Fixed draw order issue where clouds on Jool render over Laythe's sky.

-Partially fixed compatibility with telescope mods: Will work correctly in high orbits (>160 km) with the planet rendering correctly and no overlaying layers, however will get some interference from the postprocessing shader when PQS is active (below 160km for Kerbin).

-Visor reflections (TextureReplacer's reflection plugin) should also be fixed, with the same limitations as the telescope mods.

Version 0.0230 for Kerbal Space Program 1.0.5

Released on 2016-02-24

-Ocean no longer disappears when you rotate the camera, do flips in IVA or get to orbit. -FakeOcean removed, regular ocean stays all the way to high orbit. -Added ocean alpha setting to configPoints to fade out the ocean nearing orbit. -Better way to disable the stock oceans (thx to rbray89), gives a small performance bump.

-Added godrays: Early WIP, disabled by default, these work best with good terrain so turn up your terrain quality. Looks best with terrain shadows.

-Added terrain shadows: These depend on the unity shadows, if you see shimmering or artifacts turn up your shadow quality through the "render quality level" slider in KSP. The default shadow Cascades setting of 4 seems to work quite well. Shadows distance has also been changed from 5 000 to 100 000, this is adjustable in the scatterer config file.

-Added custom sunflare shader: WIP, configurable through custom textures and config file.

-Added eclipses: WIP, appear only on sky and orbit only for now, no terrain shadows. You can set eclipse casters through the planetsList file.

-Tweaked configs for a bunch of planet, ground to orbit transition is much better on Kerbin especially. Didn't have time to redo Duna so it probably loooks really bad.

-Fixed custom depth buffer artifacts (threshold of 10 is enough for all altitudes now). -Moved all render modes to the custom depth buffer.

-MapViewScale setting no longer required. -PostProcessing now has extinction like the sky shader. -PostProcessing blending mode changed from alpha blending to soft additive, basically it blends better and feelsless foggy during the day and more foggy at sunsets/sunrises.

-Sky extinction is now handled via analytic formula, this fixes the bug where sometimes extinction doesn't work with custom configs, beware that objects in the sky are still handled via the old method so this may not fix it.
