Sorry for my late reply.

Yes the script file does work on my system, JackDole. However, I noticed that the Galilean satellites came out buggy. The auroras on the oceanias are either deep under the sea, or deep under the sea *floor*.



And I was able to set BumpMap to "NONE" for a fully procedural surface height for callisto, since the spikes seemed odd lol.

As for Earth, I had two sections for it, and one (the lifeless toxic hothouse version) commented out for simplicity, even though I mindlessly copypasted the "garbage world" parameters with it. But yeah I did notice that the multiple /* */ boxes would cause problems.

I am curious about the cloud parameters for the purely procedural clouds though. The DiffMapAlpha parameter seemed superfluous for some bodies, I think, as the game uses "Transp" by default, no? Or is it helpful for anything I might have missed?

I do like the streamlined look of the remove section, so I do thank you! smile

If no textures are used, probably. If textures are used with 'alpha channel', I think it must be specified.

The Auroras may need to be adjusted in the editor. Or be completely deactivated.



Don't forget to look here.

did you try adding file extensions, like
Code
    Clouds
    {    DiffMap    "Ventaclouds_diff.png"
         BumpMap    "Ventaclouds_bump.png"

and so on?

Dumb me, I forgot to add the
Code
.*
:3
Thanks anyway!

the ".png" thing isn't essential to add in the script smile

how the planet looks like with textures (with atmosphere too) smile

Judging by your code after "Eccentricity 0" you applied a return, so it should be:
Code
Eccentricity    0.650794
  Inclination     18.3927

instead of
Code
Eccentricity    0
.650794  Inclination     18.3927


There was a similar problem in the planet script you posted before.

Question, where can I find a good calculator or algorithm to calculate all the orbital parameters for a binary? (Sorry if this was mentioned already, but I haven,t read the whole thread yet.)

I have a serious (idk if it's really serious) problem...
Why are all my planets and moons scorched?

Coran BC goes to: addons > catalogs > stars
And the rest goes to: addons > catalogs > planets

Is it possible to solve it?
Meanwhile I'll work in my other custom systems..

simonecinque1992,
I have looked at your scripts and a few bugs fixed that were displayed in the log file.

Code

[MT] "addons/catalogs/planets/Coran_Stars.sc" line 780:    ERROR: Syntax error '.02994'
[MT] "addons/catalogs/planets/Coran_Stars.sc" line 1061:    ERROR: Syntax error '.365'

Errors in Coran_Stars.sc:
Line 779 and the following:
Code
  Period          0
.02994  Eccentricity    0.349
  Inclination     44.5311

Line 1060 and the following:
Code
  SemiMajorAxis   4475  Period          2.404  Eccentricity    0
.365  Inclination     -17.143  AscendingNode   277.194
  ArgOfPericenter 0


And even if it is possible to write multiple parameters in a row, this should not be done. It is confusing and bad style.

Because of your scorched planets:
Set 'Eccentricity' to '0', for all planets and moons that are scorched.
The closer a moon is his planet, the stronger the influence of the eccentricity onto the tidal heating.

JackDole, I used your modified files but planets and moons were still scorched so i did the things you did with my actual scripts but still scorched sad

And I don't think moons would make other moons that hot because all the times i saw the planets and moons they weren't even scorched (except Uncino and Scorch) dry

I'm using 0.974 RC3
