I know how to write them, I checked out a tutorial. I just think the way I want to do it isn't possible. As I'm not sure if you can change atmosphere cloud maps with an alt surface texture.Alternate Textures needed to be structured like this

NGTS-16
A Large Gas Giant Above the Galactic Plane
NGTS-16 is a Sun-like star about 3,008 light-years away in the constellation Eridanus. A planet larger than Jupiter yet only 1/7 its mass completes a 4.85-day orbit around its star at a distance of only 7.75 million km

Two planets discovered by TESS
Explore two different worlds confirmed by TESS
TOI-3757 b is a Jupiter-sized world with a density similar to that of a marshmallow
TOI-3757 is a red dwarf located about 590.76 light-years away from the solar system. the star has a gas giant inflated to about 12 Earth Radii in size that completes an orbit every 4.5 days. With a mass of 85.3 Earth Masses, it has a really low density, akin to that of a marshmallow. The star is also notable for the fact this its metallicity is similar to the Sun's.
GJ 1252
a red dwarf host to a hot, airless world
GJ 1252 b is a hot and dry super-earth with little to no atmosphere, based on observations from Spitzer
GJ 1252, aka TOI-1078, is a red dwarf located about 66.41 lightyears from the solar system. the star is host to a single hot, dead super-Earth (b= 1.193 Re, 1.32 Me). Observations from Spitzer, prior to it shutting down, determined that planet did not have a thick envelop and constrains any potential atmosphere to being no larger than about 1 bar of pressure. JWST can constrain this further should it ever look at this system.

(Can't quote messages well on my phone so this is in reply to Gironde's BumpMap statement.)
The second BumpMap, in the clouds, could actually be done by using CloudNormalMap instead of just BumpMap.

TOI-700 e (Alternate Surface)
2023's first confirmed exoplanet
- TOI-700 e, the fourth confirmed exoplanet orbiting TOI-700
Okay, I know this planet already exists here. However, I and Gurren made our textures around the same time. (Thanks to him for letting me modify his .ssc file for this) So, I decided to just post mine as an alt surface to his.

The three planets of Kepler-174
Kepler-174, aka KOI-518, is a K-type dwarf star located about 1,254.32 lightyears from the solar system. The star hosts three planets: two mini-Neptunes (b= 2.349 Re, d=2.572 Re) and a super-Earth (c= 1.752), the outermost planet (d) orbits within the star's habitable zone. The masses of the planets are not known.

Just so everyone knows, planetary systems with new addons or updated textures that have been released in the Nearby Exoplanets thread over the last several months include Epsilon Indi, 61 Virginis, Gliese 367, and Gliese 680. Addons for nearby systems that have been posted here are all included there as well, sometimes with changes and improvements made. (A few systems are still missing download links, generally since I intend to rework them and haven't done so yet.)

HD 147513
An underrated system
HD 147513 is a wide binary system consisting of a G-type star and a white dwarf, 42 light-years away. The primary star hosts a gas giant planet on a somewhat eccentric orbit within the habitable zone. The system seems to be fairly young, with an age of less than a billion years. It's one of just a few systems known to have both white dwarfs and planets.
For some reason though, there have been few studies of this system since the discovery of the planet in 2003, and the planetary parameters have never been updated. This does make me wonder if it might be a false positive, but at the moment it's considered a confirmed planet and I haven't seen anything that would cast doubt on it.
A fictional rocky moon with small bodies of water on its surface is included in a separate download.
