@solar violet what is your mod called and where can I download it?
solar violet
@main dove Hi, there. :)
It's called No Man's Sky: "RaYRoD's Overhaul".
The page is temporarily disabled, as I am working on a major update for v10 and am excited to push it out when as soon as it's ready.
It should be around soon... but working hard on it

Hey, my friend Krem and I were working some things. But thanks! I converted it to an exocraft

hoth
solar violet
Just handcrafted another 400 proc biomes with rules and algorithms (713 in total) now
And also imported every version of No Man's Sky into Atlas rises (1.0, An alternate 1.0 style, Path Finder) while still keeping the path Atlas Rises base game planets
Aiming for 1,000 for my v10 release... but the biome mod will also be a standalone when it's done.
celest steeple
lmao
solar violet
Indeed, I'm handcrafting proc biomes with rules and algorithms
The way that I prefer to handcraft procedural biomes with rules and algorithms is similar to the way Sean demonstrated in pre-release footage.
I start off by creating a "flat terrain template". Then I add planetary features like terrain, hills, resources, mountains, rivers, craters, crevaces, arches and various other things. Then I start by adding various algorithms and rules on different levels, and level of detail.
tranquil stratus
sounds like effort 😃
solar violet
Thanks man
The last thing I just finished was
Rewriting the terrain generation file. It was a pain. Like 500k lines... but
main dove
damn i never knew there where souch mods out there, only played on vanila..
solar violet
The result ended in a near infinite terrain variety but makes sense
For eg...
One was totally flat
Another had giant mountains
Another was an island water world with cave islands:
Another was a giant cave
Another was floating islands with thick heightfog
Another 2 were super spiky
Another was full of beaches
Another two were swirvy and full of ridges
Another was made compeltely out of heridium
Another was made out of chrysonite
Another had giant floating mountains with steps
Another was a giant purple island on a water world
Another was swampy
Another was super foggy
But the vanilla planets are still out there
As well
These type of planets should be fairly rare
But that's just the voxel noise generation
Aside from additional biomes being added
There's a lot more out there
@main dove When I'm finished, I will release it and it will be downloadable
main dove
sounds exciting, cant wait untill you finish v10 so i can try it out
solar violet
Awesome, also... bug reports will be helpful if you encounter any (when that time comes)
But I'm working hard to ensure perfection, consistent beauty, and stability. So it might not happen.
main dove
respect on making such an effort on making a mod for this game, i can't not even imagin the amount of time it requires. 😃
solar violet
In the end, Hello Games gave us a beautiful game. I also respect that they actually "paved way" for modders to mod the game; rather than closing it off.
I'm glad that they put so much effort into this game, even after a year + duration. I do play vanilla on my ps4, but it's awesome to see what can be done with this game. It makes the time worth iit; although it's tedious... yet fun. 😃

@proven current The last pit that I jumped into had spiky ground in some areas, while in other areas there was water, and in some other areas there with deep (2016 style) caves with predator creatues, and sandy slopes. I provided way to get out though. But it's like an entire sub biome a lot of times.

This guy got all my respect

As suggestion I would trim down the amount of planets like this
It seems like 50% of em got this
solar violet
@proven current Nah, they're very rare. I got it covered. 😃
Synonymous to what I mentioned earler... (about 85%) of planets have vanilla terrain. 5% has slightly altered than vanilla terrain with more varied resource deposits, and 10% has a lot of crazy variations. I took those snaps because I like these planets.
There's a near infinite variety of terrain
Can't really make that statement on the basis of a few handpicked snaps though, when it's pushed out you will see. I haven't seen it all, and will continue to see more variations.

They are old snaps... will restrict them to an Oria V biome I make eventually
A lot of stuff on my "to do" list atm
The antelopes from the E3 trailer also had a grass eating animation
Thinking of ways to add more creature animations from old footage atm
Just finished this below
proven current
It's cool that you make special biomes for them
How varied are those animals you sent in reality?
Like, this is the exact same as the trailer
solar violet
The E3 creature models are not proc gen for the most part. However, there are quite a few handcrafted variations of those non proc gen models done by HG. There are a few ways that I can approach this.
Some of those ways, are in that log above.
I'll give a few examples of some things that just came to my mind (but I'm down for any suggestions).
I could restrict those Oria V type creatures (including) several that we weren't shown in trailers, give them all various animations; different class roles (uncommon, rare, and common) (predator, passive) and assign them with rules to appear on certain regions of an Oria V biome type based upon the terrain tiling; like "Caves, mountains,base terrain, or assigning certain creature role types underwater".
Apart from that, the sizes will be procedural for those creatures with a min/max cap. There are other things that I may do to them creatively, as what comes to my mind.

proven current
Is it actually rendered with how planets are placed
Or is there no logic behind it?
solar violet
It's rendered the way planets face in relevance to the position of the sun. Coded in the GLSL shaders which gets quite complex
This one is from the mod as well that I took
He explains about it here:
https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/451/?
Please note that this is not a 'realism mod'. While the results from this mod are certainly more realistic than what the game does by default, the goal of this mod is to replicate the old rendering style that NMS had in pre-2016 videos. ```So I guess it can/does look like the E3 trailers.
proven current
No, the e3 trailers have black, he got transparent

Ah, do you mean the opacity?

is that with just your mod ?
solar violet
Indeed!
Currently working on restoring unused biomes by Hello Games. I also decided to add collision to these old props by calculating the geometrics of those objects and linking them to the specific models, and I attached them to other files in order to make them mineable, and different props (depending upon their rarity) give different resources and they are scannable. I'm trying to give them all purpose. Once I take care of all of the collisions, and re-texturing for some low poly things, I'll start handcrafting biomes for these unused assets. Sort of like I did for this E3 Crystal Forest Biome.
solar violet
In short, it's for v10 of my overhaul. I'm currently at 801 additional biomes.
At the moment, all versions of No Man's Sky are integrated into one. So, the 2016 (1.0) version planets/biomes being completely identical from space and on the surface are here, a modded 2016 style, the foundation update planets, the path finder planets, and the Atlas Rises planets exist... alongside several hundred procedural biomes that I handcrafted with rules and algorithms.
Currently making/adding more content creatively and ironing out some things and am on a bug hunt, seeking to ensure consistency 😃
trim zealot
that's a lot of stuff
solar violet
Also, looking back at E3 trailers and either re-adding that content back in or re-making it
From the ground up
trim zealot
hopefully it will be ready by the time i get my computer
solar violet
Yeah, I know it's taking long and a lot of people have been waiting... but I am trying to make the wait worth it 😛
A few beta testers said... "the game doesn't even feel modded, but enhanced in every way"
My goal/inspiration has been a cross between E3 style nostolgia with a modern vibe but linked to the initial game's aesthetic with a few rare exceptions. To not stray from the original game's intended lore/style, to not break the default vibe, but to enhance it.
trim zealot
just don't rush it
solar violet
Yeah, I'll continue to take my time. I'm on week 4 so far, which this is the only thing I've been working on from the time I wake up until the time I sleep pretty much. Excited to finish it, hopefully sufficiently. So I can work on adding more content afterwords and a few other projects.
But I enjoy what I'm learning in the process too

@proven current It depends in which way. Are you referring to on the top left, where the planet name used to be on the HUD... or the bar in the middle of the screen?
solar violet
@copper robin Yeah, it's on my mod in progress. Speaking of an ecology overhaul, and E3 style effect.s That's exactly what I've been doing in these two sections:
-Made clouds slightly more transparent (Used Lo2k's true clouds as a base to make my changes)
-Higher Resolution Cloud Noise
-Distant Planet Color Adjustments
-Adjustments to the global coloring, now less red
-Landscape fog slight reduction
-Made skies even more clean
-Adjusted rim lighting
-More Level Of Detail Adjustments
-Subtle nebulae
-New Transparent/clean Binocular UI (Thanks to Lo2k for helping me with this file)
-Re-made an instagram filter removal shader in my own way
-Greatly increased the E3 styled Shaders, DOF, Gaussian Blur, and Lensflare effects
-Slight Terrain Adjustments
-Improved FXAA subpixel anti aliasing
-The core mod now contains a version of space that I altered, which is dark; but not fully black and has space clouds but nebulae. The space dream mod by Lo2k still works (included in the space dream folder as an optional replacement if you would an alternate version)
- E3 Style Glowing Cubes that visibly glow slightly longer and also glow slightly longer underground
- Fog adjustments
- Configured E3 Style Shaders with Dof, Gaussian Blur, and Lensflare adjustments
- HD Cockpit Screens```- I overhauled all of the creature animations. All creatures also have their own sizes, scales and movement speeds.
- I split all creatures into several variations, uncommon, rare, and common
- Adjusted Rainforest Rodent Spawn Rate
- Adjusted Rainforest Butterfly Spawn Rate
- Adjusted Rainforest Glowbug Spawnrate
- Walkers and drones can now spawn underwater; but rare
- Slight predator increase
- Re-added missing rare cave drones and cave quads
- Roaming sentinel size and spawn adjustments (more rare and can vary in size)
- Underwater Predator Group Alterations and Spawn adjustments depeneding upon day or night
- A lot of creatures are restricted to lush biomes, but now all, and I will soon link certain things to custom biome types. For eg, Oria V creatures will only spawn in the Oria V biome.
- Even less overhwelming amounts of creatures (creature discovery should be more special)
- Added mountain quadrupeds
- Added mountain prehistoric creatures
- Added rare Oria V Rhinos that Roar. (Still working on making them kill-able, and also for them to attack you, and potentially knock down trees)
- Walkers that give wanted level can occasionally appear on dead only biomes (varying depending upon the day)
*Only two can spawn in a group at a time here, and they aren't constantly all over the place (leaving the beauty of the biome itself without being too crowded). Shooting sentinels (even randomly roaming ones) now can give you a wanted level.
- Caves can be more dangerous. Chances of spiders, rare drones, and rare quadrupends (Varying depending upon the biome type and time of day)
- More underwater wildlife on certain biome types and slightly more predators
- Adjusted Life Chances again (to prevent overwhelming amounts of creatures that were still around on certain biome types)
- Lots and lots more
- Added All Oria V Creatures and made them rare + Linking to specific biome types based upon rules.```@proven current Checking now

I see, that may be possible. I'll have to look into it. The files that I hate working with the most are the UI files. Making an E3 styled inventory required me to work my way through 11 million lines of xml to get it right.
And to make that E3 HUD properly, I had to hack the executable and created a mini real time HUD editor.
But that's a nice aesthetic to have

someone once wrote those 11 million lines tho, rip him
even tho its easier for him to go trough it than you

I believe they have automated (official tools) that may generate those script.
I believe that they can adjust it on the screen to their liking and it will auto generate it.
Without official tools it's that tedious.
proven current
Makes sense
solar violet
Especially from the outside in (in files that other modders haven't really touched yet) so no help there.
It's not hard for me
Just time consuming
proven current
It took me long enough to make my 230 lines game
Which ain't even a complete game just messing around
solar violet
Yeah. I come from the GTA V modding scene.
When I was first studying asm and powerpc, (I didn't know anything about it) and learned what I learned and wrote over 16k lines in low level assembly, and then converted it to c++. I injected this custo menu into the game on PS3 (was one of the first)

I don't really like modding, just making games from scratch is more of my thing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Ah, well. Either way, it can be a good learning experience. 😛

I learned scripting from working on a harry potter game where you can use litteraly any spell that excist
Ofcourse, I never finished it since there are over 300 spells, but it was still fun and I got far
I may one day actually make it
solar violet
Yeah, nicee

I got in game design in the first place because I wanted to make walking simulators of my lucid dreams, so I can share them with a little group I'm in of lucid dreamers
I avoided scripting as much as possible, but eventually I did try it and got more into it
Today I worked more on Graphics design
This is what I made 3 months ago
This is what I made now
I see improvements :D
solar violet
Nice work
I have a few other projects that I do for fun on the side. Modding NMS is more-so of a thing that I'm sucked into right now and having fun with. I don't believe I'll ever leave though.
I love the game that Hello Game's has worked so hard on to give us.
Been excited for it since 2013 - Today
Anyway, gotta go for a bit. Cya
proven current
bye
this is the game so far
I once again decided to make a game based on a lucid dream
but this time keep it a lot more game
and less just walking trough a dream
the skiihall itself is actually going to be a very steep bouncy castle where you will roll down and bounce and all
that was the actual dream part
but like, giant bouncy castle, just the floor. as big as a normal skii hall

My home system has this one barren planet super excluded from the others, but man what a view it has.

I like that planet alignment :)
Nice

Nobody ever does modded streams of this game, at least not that I've seen

you'd think they would be popular but most streams I've seen are either PS4 or vanilla PC
Nice freighter

I just got a depth of field working without ReShade or photo mode.(Time to adjust it more) to blend in with E3 style height fog, and other fog density variations depending upon the weather.

Storm Fog, Height Fog, Depth Of Field (occuring during light storms)
Time to do the extreme storms next
Just finished the extreme storm
Thanks! 😃

When you script it do you still need to search the galaxy until you find one?
solar violet
Indeed! There's exploration incentive, and a need to travel the galaxy in casual play. I usually force a specific biome to the type I'm making, when making it, for quick handcrafting.
So far... all of the 2016, two alternate 2016 versions, foundation, path finder, atlas rises, Darconia city biomes (added at request), every variation of shaidaka's biomes + custom variations I made of his (used with permission), Civilizations by Redmas (Imported with permission), Unused Biomes by Hello Games, Default Atlas Rises Biomes, and a bunch of other biomes that I custom made is in here right now. Including an unused underwater biome, rare (unused) levelone objects, default levelone object alterations, various rare objects, a cross between 2016 - Path Finder - Atlas Rises spawn density placements, modded building placements , and cave biomes, + a few unused biomes at the moment. + Lots of other good stuff. Every version of No Man's Sky in one.
I just landed on this procedural "snowylush" biome type that I made in this new system

How does one land on a water planet
And actually I've visited a planet just like that recently, it really felt modded but it was not
solar violet
That's cool, well.. I don't think that you can land on a water planet. But if there's sparsed out islands, you can.
I found something similar recently... but that planet had one island.

lucid shell
@solar violet why do those clouds look so good? What did you do to them?
solar violet
@lucid shell It's a cross between Lo2k's true clouds, and some other changes I did to them (alongside other GLSL shader enhancements, and some other things)
Here's a full log of a few "brief" explanations of "some" of the things I did so far, for v10. I'lll release everything publicly as soon as it's fully polished and I'm done making content for it.
lucid shell
@solar violet one of the things that makes NMS clouds look bad is that they seem to be rendered on a 2D plane (I am not referring to the whole planet texture). And when you fly your ship towards them they lose all shape and get weirdly diffused. Is there a way arround this? Also can clouds be rendered from further away (let's say from space)?
fast coyote
Here's my new base. (I moved, it's still a WIP)

no
proven current
(In fighter)
copper robin
it always happens
its different that the glitch that most people knows anyways
for this is that, everytime you enter the ship, the cockpit would shift to random direction
its quite annoying, therefore restricted the type of ships i would get. It happens to: Shuttles, Long-neck Haulers, Explorer of a type of cockpit, and some Exotics
just to avoid this bug..
copper robin
doubt so, it doesn't happens to Fighters, Hauler without long neck, Explorer of a type of cockpit
fast coyote
Just on photo.
proven current
It's not always, just once in a hundred times or so
And only on planets, so my guess is the angle
copper robin
its always for me
well before the foundation patch, i'm using a shuttle
when foundation patch release, my shuttle's cockpit went haywire
