I have a situation where the "dark" side of Earth is a bright white - there is no texture, just bright white. Mars dark side also has no texture but is brown/red. And Saturn is bright blue all over. Other planets are fine.

Any thoughts?

A possibility is that your graphics card has simply run out of memory: that you're using too many, too large, surface texture images.

However, before we jump to that conclusion, please read and follow the instructions in Q1/A1 & Q2/A2 of the "preliminary User's FAQ" at the top of the Users Forum.

Hi,

Try to download the most recent drivers for your video card. It'd worked for me!
