DonCDXX thanks man for help. It took me 3 days to figure it out and to get photoshop and intel dds plugin to be able to edit it. Now i am happy with 8 new ores i want to add into mod i'm working on. Big thanks for answer <3

If you're getting the pink texture, first thing to try is that you linked to the texture files correctly in the xml.

If the file location and reference are correct, maybe it's something about the file. Do you have a _cm and -ng?
cm is color/metal with alpha channel controlling metallicity and rgb channels as the image
ng is the normal/gloss where the alpha channel controls gloss and the rgb channels are a normal map. If you don't want metallicity or gloss, you still need the alpha channels for the texture to work.

I am fairly sure the textures need to be square so that's something to double check.
Also check to make sure you're generating mipmaps when you export your textures to dds.

If none of that works and you're still having trouble, send me a friend request and I'll try to talk you through it when I have the time.

DonCDXX can you please tell me how to add my own ore into spece engineers ? i am working on a mod where i wanted to add some new ores but i have issues with dds files. I edit them in paint.net but even if i'm making new one still i'm getting pink asteroid whenever i try to test it using shift-f10 in game and spawning ore asteroid. I saved dds files in BC7 also i tried saving them as volumetric map. Nothing

This mod shouldn't affect anything like that. There's no scripts or anything that are capable of that kind of interference.

Hey, so I went near a duranium "lake", and my miner started turning off and on. Is this normal?

Oh yep, I completely neglected the bottom part of the sbc. Thank you!

Ah ok, I‘ll have a look

I don't know if it's changed since I made the mod, but there was a block positions part in the xml that gives the x,y coords of the icon in the g menu

So, for the edit I'm making I added a few blocks though something I am confused about is: How did you get your blocks to be on the bottom of the "All Blocks" list in the G menu? I can't find anything asociated to it. My block variation groups are scattered at the top of the list.

All right, thank you!

Yes. I give permission on all my mods for people to make their own variations. All I ask is that you post a link to the original in your mod's description/

Hi, wanted to ask if I could make an edit of this mod as an unlisted reupload for a scenario I'm making?

there is a modded version of it with an asteroid.
il do it with adminhelper mod on my survival server... so i spawn an asteroid and with the helper commands it is possible to fill the whole roid with the material you need

the mod is old but still works good https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=316190120

i think it should be possible t build a script to let spawn roids where and when you need it

It would be nice if there was a way to get duranium without having to add the planet, like say a very resource and intensive refining process.

Many Thx man! :-)

I give permission on all my mods for anyone to post modified versions and ask only that you post a link to the original.

@DonCDXX i would ask for permission to reupload with a customized version for my survival server with credits to your Original Item for sure

Ok, we have it now on our survival server since more than a month. No Issues so far.
@big_blue_4101 yeah youre right but if you have a warship with only heavy armor and you can get 20% of all that weight down that is a good benefit.....20% can be much...

I have tested the durability with Aryx Weapon Enterprises, especially the Tempest Heavy Cannon and i can say vanilla heavy armor has a hole after the first shot :-) Duranium Heavy Armor can hold 3 shots without much damage (tested with 3 Layers each) So very good against normal kinetic projectiles.

So it will be worth to farm it on a survival world eventhough 20% less weight instead of 50% :-)

THX Doncdxx for that nice MOD it gives our Server a new nice Goodie!!

Hello, would to ask if we can use this on our survival server ?

THX BR

Yes, I haven't touched these in over a year. I think a lot of things have changed since then. It was all accurate when it was initially made. I'm sure I'll get around to fixing them eventually.

you need to rework your armor blocks. the description says half the weight of steel. but the small blcok only weighs 4 Kg less then 20 Kg steel block and the large 100 less then 500 Kg so thats more like 20 % weight reduction instead of the 50% promised.

Naming things has always been my weakest spot creatively.

Bro.. I like your planets but seriously.... You go to all this trouble to make cool planets... But you can't come up with a creative cool scifi name for the actual planet?

Hi, can you accept my friend request. I'd like to talk to you about using your mod.

Bad work with armor blocks grouping- Icons confusing. Few blocks have a broken model
Real armor rate 15x, 16kg per plate(its ok)
Defence shield mod are crazy durable with this armor (shield's health depend on ship's total HP)
8x or less is fine enough
<DropProbability>0.95</DropProbability>... is useless string due it will not appear in signals without editing the containers

Thanks for response. I reloaded and it worked fine.

It should appear there, I recently tested it on a dedicated server. All I can suggest is that you double check the mod loaded correctly on the server.

I dont see the planet, its not in my shift f10 menu. I installed the mod on a multiplayer server. Probably user error but....?

There are normal versions and asteroid versions. The normal versions don't allow them on asteroids but the asteroid versions (obviously) do. If you want the planet and want the ore on asteroids, you can use both versions, but the asteroid version must be above the planet version in the mod list.

Do any of your Sci Fi ore mods place allow the ore to be on asteroids?

Thank you for your prompt reply!
It works now! : D
Thx !!!

@Jacki Langfinger
The mods are added just like any other mod. The planets don't add to the map you're playing on automatically, you'll have to place the planets in creative mode.

Hello
I think your Planet Mods from Space Engineers are great!

But unfortunately I do not know how to install it exactly, can you help me?

sorry, i needed just put pt on refinery )) thx

@Wolverine It's on the planet that comes with the mod. I'll be sure to put plenty of info and pictures up when testing is complete.

where i may find or get Duranium?and how
