---------- August 29, 2014 Update ----------
Version 2.0 is an extensive update to the original Kepler-62 System add-on that was available before August 29, 2014. Â It has been changed to include new features and to reflect the newest scientific theories and discoveries. Â One of the biggest changes is that Kepler-62e and f are now modeled as water planets rather than terrestrial planets. Â This is because new research suggests that habitable-zone planets in that size range may not be entirely rocky.
IMPORTANT: Â Due to the extensive updates of the planets' masses, compositions, and positions, scenarios involving the original add-on may not work properly. Â There are new scenarios available in this add-on, but any old user-made scenarios may not be compatible.
---------- November 28, 2014 Update ----------
This newest version (2.1) fixes two bugs for D3D9Client users. Â There is no longer a ctd when you approach the base on Kepler-62f. Â Also, the landing pad night textures for ExoBase K62M now work properly.
This update also fixes the issue where the aircraft carrier on Kepler-62f appeared to be floating.
