RCW 79-3D nebula

HI.
I'm fascinated by Cham's sprites nebulae, so I tried once again an old experiment, i.e. mixing sprites and 3D nebulae.
To do this, I first modified heavily Jll's RCW-79 3D model here
http://celestiamotherlode.net/catalog/show_addon_details.php?addon_id=899
with the intention to obtain a new, fictional, gorgeous nebula for Celestia.
Doing so, I first superimposed 4 3D models, one out of the other, with changed textures (lighter going outwards) and .dsc file.
Result in Image 1.
Then I superimposed 9 Cham's RCW 79 cmod sprites, one out of the other, softer and less saturated from the center out, result in Image 2.
Then I added a heavily re-organized Jll's star cluster inside the nebula (Image 3).
Another post following.
Bye
Goofy

Hi.
This is how it appears travelling inside the nebula.
I like it, it's a nice experience, in my opinion. (Image 4 - 5)
If you like it, I can add a link to the addon
Bye

Thank you Cham, but you did most of the job! :clap:
Let me check dimensions, it will be available tomorrow here.

Here we are.
Obviously, it's a fictional nebula, just to show the possibility to mix different ways of modelling nebulae.
Enjoy.

Goofy, for best visibility of your add-on you should place it within the proper section (Celestia Content -> Add-on releases)... :nervious: :silenced: :oops:

You are right, Fenerit, I'll do it.
I've to find what's the procedure to do it.
Anyway I put it here just to follow Cham's show of his cmod sprite nebulae.
bye
Goofy :smile:
