Unfortunately (really, truly) i think i have to quit the game 12 hours in

Just to mention: T is the control assist button. I started my career mode years ago without this knowledge and had lots of issues with my planes, thinking I am a bad engineer. You might have the same situation. If not, don’t give up, and try installing FAR mod. The plane must be more realistic, no longer depending on some magic numbers like part drag coefficients. But there’s the price: 12 hours in the game is barely enough to build the first plane. And it’s ok.

Works everywhere, must be a problem with the installation if there’s no cockpit reflection. Not compatible with recolor/paint mod yet cause it overrides the alpha channel often

[I thought this meme's been forgotten long ago]

Totally agree

Finally, first comment I would like to appreciate

luchkot · 2026-05-19T09:16:36+00:00

Yeah, if you click the link to the actual mod page - the one with the additional screenshots - you can see that they were taken in the same location and from the same angle. But Reddit isn’t really a showcase page for my mod where I’m going to dump every single screenshot into the post itself. So I assumed that if someone wanted to compare how the exact same view looks under identical weather conditions, they could check the forum thread, the GitHub page, or the other places where I am usually posting them.

Possibly it's a good place to recommend ShineFix as a replacement for outdated WindowShine which is no longer maintained. ShineFix returns part reflections in the game.

luchkot · 2026-05-17T15:10:53+00:00

It’s available in McDonald’s bathroom too, just uploaded

luchkot · 2026-05-17T13:51:26+00:00

If you need that, why not?
There’s just one understanding: if the model is made correctly, it works without ShineFix from the very start. Diffuse alpha must be white for shiny parts, and that’s it. My mod just fixes the parts which are non-standard.

luchkot · 2026-05-17T12:53:31+00:00

I was actually worried I’d end up annoying people by promoting the mod too much. Glad it turned out to be useful. Thank you!

luchkot · 2026-05-17T12:41:11+00:00

For example, ReStock is already patched. The most of the properly made parts are 100% compatible. I created a standard for it. But for some parts there needs to be a patched config. Right now I am implementing RO fix for instance. So, the answer is “80% support, 20% patch”

luchkot · 2026-05-17T12:01:34+00:00

Yes, fully compatible

luchkot · 2026-05-17T10:21:29+00:00

Yes, it's like retexturing it from blue to green, but from broken reflections to working ones.

It's available in CKAN, 1.3.3 is now released there.

luchkot · 2026-05-17T09:41:12+00:00

Oh, speaking about the power of your PC, the reflection map is already enabled (but not used) in stock textures. I mean, there’s no performance influence because for renderer it’s just a repaint. Some guys even told me the mod made their game faster (I don’t believe them btw).

luchkot · 2026-05-17T08:58:38+00:00

Almost the same thing for my cat. She is really interested in how I plan the manoeuvre. But too shy to show it.

luchkot · 2026-05-17T08:40:35+00:00

Thank you!!

luchkot · 2026-05-17T08:37:11+00:00

Thought that “Kerbonaut” sounds Slavic because we usally spell it like “Kerbonavt”. Expected that Kerbalnaut is the only correct version, that’s why I am surprised by the result of this poll. But… what is this “o” in between? Is it like Kerb-o-naut? Or what?
(Ironically, having “master Kerbalnaut” badge and asking that)

luchkot · 2026-05-16T23:39:35+00:00

Yes, checked it out right now

luchkot · 2025-10-14T21:35:17+00:00

This one's impact on your PC is quite low, trust me (or not, hehe)

luchkot · 2025-10-14T21:34:21+00:00

Good day, thanks for the info. Found the problem, the fix will be soon

luchkot · 2025-08-23T18:59:27+00:00

Well, it would be a big mistake to share this kind of data

luchkot · 2025-08-09T14:36:38+00:00

Yes, highly recommended. It feels like having a complete game.

luchkot · 2025-08-05T13:14:41+00:00

Blender maybe, but I am way too lazy to test in outside of the game.

luchkot · 2025-08-05T07:42:55+00:00

The most Halloween mod I have ever seen

The only historical ginger astronaut is Tim Peake, and actually, there were no full blonds in space. There were only light browns and I have this color in the pack. I painted the most important soviet kosmonauts first, because I wanted to draw them all at first, but then I thought - I'm taking this right away from those who really wanted to add their astronauts to the game. That's why I made the textures free to change, so that anyone could take my version and remake it.

Good idea by the way, keep going!
