Go into {STEAM}\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\3371599279\Data, open Environment.sbc in a text editor (ex. Notepad++), and right at the top are 4 lines for small and large ship MaxSpeed and MaxAngularSpeed. Add "<!--" on the line above them and "-->" on the line below them. So it should look like:

<!--
<SmallShipMaxSpeed>500</SmallShipMaxSpeed>
<LargeShipMaxSpeed>500</LargeShipMaxSpeed>
<SmallShipMaxAngularSpeed>360</SmallShipMaxAngularSpeed>
<LargeShipMaxAngularSpeed>180</LargeShipMaxAngularSpeed>
-->

That comments those lines out and makes them no longer impact your game.

Should remove the speed limit change. Please.

Love the planet, however i'd appriciate removing the 500 speed limit change :P

Mars so good my game is running in slideshow
10/10

whats with the speed boost with this mod?

Man that looks good. Kudos



Speed limit: it is an unfortunate oversight that mod creators can forget they set when editing world files in space engineers; fairly sure OP can make a version that doesn't do that. (AFAIK)

this mod sets my speed limit to 500 m/s for some reason on my world with a bunch of other mods

the answer is no, it does not spawn better stone ores.

Idk load it and find out

does better stones work with this planet??

can i get the planet without the hidden skybox and hidden speed mod? please?

@Lord Skarra it is Star System Generator

looks cool from orbit, but is there any way you could vary up the voxel textures? maybe, have "biomes" or something? it's kind of dissapointing having it look that cool from space but planetside is smooth rolling hills of orange sand

What is the Planet Loader Plugin?
It doesn't link to anything.

this mod is sneakily hiding a really UGLY skybox.

@Bačiulis
Nice! Will you update this mod with the changes?
And that is strange. Worked last time I tried to mess with them, but something might have broken since the last time I used it. Removing them completely still looks 1000 times better

do earth please 1:20

Any wind turbine optimized to run in the 1% density Mars Atmo breeze... would GIT REKT by the occasional 300-500mph storm winds. Mars atmo is both too weak and too strong for windmills

@IgotsPuddin yeah, the real mars' atmosphere is extremely thin. realistically, they would work a little bit, but output like 1% the power or something

Using this mod you could recreate The Martian by Andy Weir

(if you get the reference say so in the comments)

Does this fall victim to the same issue others of this size do where after a save/load it may randomly lose all but one chunk of itself? (Sometimes if you load a planet, I think due to engine limitations it will be mostly gone after but for the chunk on which you are standing.

Wind turbines and atmo thrusters dont work, is this realistic to what mars would actually be like?

NorthyPark, thank you so much! I was able to completely remove the spots by removing TargetColor and ColorInfluence attributes. However changing values seems to have no effect, spots are still white and same brightness.

Oh, I forgot to change the name to same as mod title, it is NASAMars currently. Give some time for voxels to load if you are looking at the planet from far away, or get closer to surface to see better detail.

What's the name of the mod(planet) showed on the list of planets? I see Mars, Mars Tutorial and NASAMars...none of them look like the one in the pictures here :( thanks in advance!

VelvetDiamond, there are no LODs for voxels. Engine decides in what quality to render, depending on distance. It also depends on voxel graphics settings. Extreme looks good from any distance, but game lags too much to play. High settings gives ok result, but it still needs some time to render the whole planet from a far.

Thanks a lot! My fav planet by many reasons. Maybe now I'll be able to re-create Red Faction in SE

Can we get better LODs, the planet looks terrible from a distance away

brother you would need a nasa pc for that 🤦‍♂️

why not attempt to make 1:1 ? mars Is relative small planet

In the planet.SBC under <OreMappings>, remove or change TargetColor="#616c83" ColorInfluence="15" for all the ore entries
Would recommend just to remove them, but making it a similar color to the martian sands could be cool

XXAWESOMEENGINEER88XX, you can use water mod with this planet as is.

yoo could you make a terraformed version of this with water mod ready?

Well, damn... that must have taken time and commitment.

Great planet, regarding the ore spots you could adjust the blue channel in the material maps to be as close to the planets colour as possible

This is incredible, your the equivalent of an ant on the surface.

@Night Raider "Their planet is dying! Ours is just beginning!"

Real Solar Systems support please? All that's needed is to make a proxy for the planet and boom.

Is planetary gravity set to actual mars gravity ? ( 3.73 m/s .... 0.373 g ) ?

Very nice! you should make a proxy for the Orbiting mod!

+1 on removing the ore patches, this and a compatibility with the new Redistributed Ore mode would be a dream!

Praetor Paktu, you can see that, using Water mod :)

NorthyPark, thanks for feedback! Actually I had the same idea about hiding white spots, but was unable to do that. Although I can give it another try. Do you perhaps remember which exactly layer needs to be deleted?

I heard someone say they'd like to see Uranus.

"It would have been nice to see an ocean on mars"

hm, though I think I might alredy have this, was a old upload years ago... unless this is different with new ore gen/locations etc? new ground textures

cheers

I'm going to go find the face on Mars :)

looks sick from outside the planet

on behalf of the Settlement Defense Front I thank you
