Mod for Kerbal Space Program that adds a custom PQS Mod which implements a variant of VertexHeightMap using Mitchell-Netravali Filtering instead of Bilineal Filtering.
This reduces the amount of pixelization at cliffs and other decently-detailed areas of a heightmap.
This mod still requires testing (Just in case), so use it with caution.
With a compiled .dll file inside the GameData, you can use the VertexMitchellNetravaliHeightMap PQS Mod in Kopernicus Configuration Files.
The PQSs mod also contains two new parameters: B and C. These control what type of filtering is done. Values B = 1/3, C = 1/3 and B = 1, C = 0 have been tested and yield decent results (Though the later is by far the most smooth).
An example of a VertexMitchellNetravaliHeightMap node:
VertexMitchellNetravaliHeightMap
{
map = 000_TESTING/PluginData/Niko_height.png
offset = -1920
deformity = 7100
scaleDeformityByRadius = false
order = 1
enabled = true
B = 0.33333333
C = 0.33333333
}
By default, B and C are equal to 1/3.
VertexMitchellNetravaliHeightMap, B = 1, C = 0
VertexHeightMap, Stock
Make sure all .dll paths at VertexBilinealHeightMap/VertexBilinealHeightMap.csproj are correct, then run either the Makefile provided or dotnet build --configuration Release -o bin.
Taked from Wikipedia, using Mitchell's and Netravali's cubic alternate resampling formula:
