ksp2 music in ksp 1 first test

it’s not the cleanest system in the world but it gets the job done. until the mods for KSP 2 release (if they ever do), I’m pretty happy with this game :)
(also sorry for the poor quality. I made this video on a whim)

[@Chlebik365]

Wich mods did you use to do this?

[@nexushelium]

For the music, soundtrack editor forked. For the visuals and sound design I have these: - EVE (including volumetrics, obviously) - Scatterer - Restock - Waterfall (WaterfallRestock with some custom files to give plumes to the ones that don't have new textures) - TUFX using blackrack's TUFX profile with the saturation slightly boosted - Chatterer - Rocket sounds enhancements - Pood's Skyboxes (with the cool nebula) - ZTheme (UI mod) - Parallax (Scatters) And I think that's it :)

At this rate we are just going to mod the entire KSP2 into KSP and it is gonna be lit

[@gwagabogo]

They gave us a half finished modpack... we're gonna finish the pack

[@AstroChara]

(Still wish we could take over the development of KSP2 though. As good as it is, KSP does have engine limitations due to being a pretty old game. KSP2 would've fixed that. It failed.)

[@yaboikindabored9831]

@@AstroChara Yeah dude! With how good our modding community is we could definitely take on a KSP 2 project! (If you haven't seen volumetric clouds before I suggest you check it out, that's how I know KSP 1 can even compete with KSP 2 in terms of graphics)

[@LowerBudgetOppenheimer]

@@yaboikindabored9831 those are overglazed on

[@WwZa7]

At this rate we will be able to combine KSP3 from mods alone without even using KSP1, like some sick exodia

[@szumiks3206]

Currently, I am writing a mod that adds a new soundtrack system like in KSP 2. It will add songs from KSP 2, but it will also allow you to add your own audio tracks and adjust playback parameters

[@szumiks3206]

Update: My mod is about 70% ready because I plan to work on the transitions between changing soundtracks and making the whole system more dynamic. Unfortunately, there is a small problem that I cannot share soundtracks from KSP2 in the mod itself because this may result in unpleasant consequences. But my mod allows you to import soundtracks on the client side

[@danzstuff]

me, who's also porting the OST to ksp 1 would appreciate this. a LOT

[@szumiks3206]

@@danzstuff I'm currently struggling with the problem of high RAM usage by the mod

[@nexushelium]

@@szumiks3206 Well I can name at least 5 of us on the discord wishing you the best of luck for this project :) Bit of QoL questions tho, will it have more or less the same layout of soundtrack editor forked? Or at the very least some way to select custom bodies and certain settings such as speed and height (asking cause I was working on also compiling a soundtrack for something like Kcalbeloh

[@szumiks3206]

@@nexushelium This is my first mod, I'm currently working on optimization it goes quickly and efficiently. I'm going to add dynamics to the soundtracks so that I can add more bodies and playback parameters, but it will be done in due time because I need to focus on more important things

[@rheaunderstars]

Somebody needs to make an adaptive music mod! Soundtrack Editor Forked is good, but it's pretty clunky compared to KSP 2's adaptive music.

[@WwZa7]

The transitions between orbit to approaching landing to landed seem a bit hard. There's also no change when approaching maneuver. But still, the fact that some of it is possible is a great achievement!

[@nexushelium]

Yeah, I've been working on sorting out those problems with the landing and I finally have a stable system to use (the maneuver is unfortunately impossible for the time being)

[@danzstuff]

yeah, transitions aren't possible with the mod he's using

[@garbanzo6867]

Awesome! one of the best things in KSP 2 is the soundtrack, it'll be nice to get it in KSP 1. the only critique would be for it to fade between music as its a bit jarring when it suddenly changes.

[@notgreg123]

Man... After the cancellation of ksp2 i haven't even opened the game. This music is oddly nostalgic for a game i only played for a few months

[@pizzainc.1465]

It isn’t cancelled, they just got rid of the previous developers and brought in KSP 1 developers. Intercept games is cancelled, not KSP 2.

[@notgreg123]

@@pizzainc.1465 ksp1 still had devs?

[@talas2566]

Omg WHEN? cause as much as I love KSP1 for it’s mods the music in KSP 2 is just better overall, Duna is my favourite planetary soundtrack hands down!

[@naemek9675]

man i totally forgot how much i miss the ksp music :( cant believe there was a time where i prefered ksp 2 over 1

[@notsofrenchy]

I feel like people are just going to take the best bits of ksp2 and import them into ksp1

[@RamanNoodles01]

Yeah, pretty much

[@danzstuff]

yeah thats what modding does

[@DianaBell_MG]

I just need the Launch soundtrack the rest i can take or leave, Launch music is fire

[@talas2566]

Huh? What about Duna? That planet has one of the best music in KSP 2 both in orbit and landing

[@danzstuff]

already there

[@valmine7507]

even though ksp2 was a mess i still love it man and its what introduced me to ksp and all that

[@GeneraluStelaru]

The one thing salvageable thing from KSP2.

[@MiraVoid]

Im glad someone is working on this! Great job! I need to know when / if this will be uploaded online for others to use!

[@nexushelium]

Unfortunately, I am not actually allowed to release it to everyone due to it being against T2's terms of service (which really sucks but hey, rules are rules i guess) I would release my config files for the mod I used (soundtrack editor forked if you want to do a similar thing with the songs available on youtube or from the files themselves) but most of the files required for said config are things i got from my own sources. Sorry :(

[@wyrdean_9649]

@@nexushelium Mind elaborating how exactly it's against Tos in a way separate from normal mods?

[@nexushelium]

@@wyrdean_9649 It's the music files. According to their (quite frankly dumb) rules, I am not allowed to distribute or even really have any files from any of their games (including music). But if you wanted to copy the names of the files I used and have them be the same songs to the best of your ability, I can definitely release my playlist config for the soundtrack editor :)

[@MiraVoid]

​@@nexushelium dang. Makes sense though! Either way, sounding good!

[@wyrdean_9649]

​@@nexushelium How does that work for mods which, say, edit part geometry? Some of the files might end up being distributed unaltered, thus technically violating terms of service?

[@villager5633]

Now mod in the loading times and it will be better in every way lol

I Have my own KSP 2 track in KSP 1 you can try out. I'm welling to take the risk if I can bring what people like to KSP 1

Great work!

I also have soundtrack editor although I didn't add the KSP 2 music

it sounds cool, how did u change the sunflare, i use scatterer too but for some reason it's not working for me

If you're talking about the extra slots, that's community tech tree. If you're talking about the music, soundtrack editor forked.

@kyzerbuhnizi6403 if you can’t figure it out manually just use CKAN. I too prefer manually installing but sometimes when the install process is too complicated you just kind of have to let it do it for you
