This looks good, although there is something concerning about the creator being offline for so long.
The outer reaches are way overcrowded not sure what's going on there. Screenshot_20201016-143251.png

ACSS FAQ time! If i forgot a question, i sincerely apologise!



Q: When will the next update come?
A: No release dates this time, that pressures the hell out of me.

Q: How is deveploment going?
A: Until recently, relatively slow. There's too much stuff for me to properly organise things. I had now decided to take another break for things to not go stale, and that break has no scheduled end!

Q: How long did it take for you to do this?
A: ~1 year for 1.0, several months for 1.1, and around half a year for 1.2.

Q: What are those massive crowded belts at the edges?
A: Those are the Asteroid belt and the Kupier belt.

BONUS Q: Did you see StayHigh's reply giving the go ahead?
A: Yes, i did! And i was happy to read and know that!

Welcome to ACSS!

Actually Complete Solar System, or ACSS for short, is a massive solar system expansion pack, featuring 251 new solar system bodies (list in the README.txt file).

ACSS is currently at Version 1.0, so more SSBs will come!

Credits to the packs i used (that i remenber) are also in the README.txt, so please read the file! Also thanks to everyone* whose packs i used!

* - Brian_Felipe, SpaceSimXplore, BANDWITH and Discord users Astrônomo (now Earth and Moon), Quantikos, Dahmond, Flefliker, and StayHigh

A tip for installing the pack:
When installing the pack, do not put everything at once! I, myself, put all of the textures first, then i put the planet data files in groups of 42.

Changelog:

1.0 - Release - New SSBs: 197

Download link (the file is too big for the forums)

1.0.1 - Fix
- Actually added Makemake (thanks Biofatal)
- Added warning to the Readme file

1.0.2 - Fix
- Fixed the shape of Bennu and Ryugu (thanks Discord user Negative)

1.1 - The Kuiper Update
- Fixed the spikyness in the surfaces of Psyche and Ceres
- Added 39 (or 40?) new solar system bodies
- Added rings to Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune
- Correctly scaled Saturn's rings
- Added day-night cycles for Venus, Earth, Mars and Pluto

ACSS 1.2
Will it kill my phone??

And there will be an update very soon that can be compatible to 1.5.3 so just wait.
I did note on the dev thread that;
For people still waiting for the 1.5 file conversion for ACSS: I'm still working on it! They wont be on this release, however once its finished, all files will be replaced with their 1.5-format counterparts, dropping all support for 1.4 files.

Soo mods, could you please lock this thread once i release ACSS 2.0? Because ACSS 2.0 is going to be a major upgrade to 1.2 (as well as being ported to the 1.5 format).

FYI guys, to keep with the game's new scale, all distances will be rescaled to 1:20 as well. That, of course, means that everything will be harder than before.
Is even the SMA and radius in 1:20 scale?
