New Exoplanet Textures

Post #1by MrSpace43 » 22.08.2020, 04:07

So I have decided to make some new exoplanet textures that I made in Cinema 4D to replace the old ones that Celestia is currently using.

You need to read the "READ ME" file to know how to install these textures.

Here's what they look like:

Been into Astronomy since the age of 3 or 4. Started making planetary textures back in late 2016. 3D animator who makes high quality animations in Cinema 4D. Likes to sometimes, deliberately torment myself with the stupid green screaming apatosaurus that is Arlo.
