Post #1by danielj » 10.08.2003, 16:03

I have downloaded M4 with HIP 450011 system from Rassilon?s,but I need textures for the planets and moons.Almost everything are blank asteroids or spheres.Can someone help me?
PS:I prefer that the textures are not .tar,because I have Winzip

Open up the .ssc file that came with the system. If the planet textures start with 'gc' then its likely they are taken from Rassilon's Globular cluster generator.

If this is the case, then download that as well, and all should be fine.

I had a look and couldn't find a reference to M4 on Rassilon's site, so I don't think its one I have.

I'm sure Rassilon himself is the best man to ask, though

Rassilon's M4 (My God, its full of stars!)

Okay, I have now downloaded and had a browse around M4. Many of the textures were, as I said, part of Rassilon's globular Cluster pack. Some, however, were not.

As far as I know, Rassilon's GC pack textures have 4 variants of various types of world, whereas the M4 cluster refers to up to 7 or 8 variants, some of which are therefore not included.

We await word from the Forge of Magrathea, just to the left of Gallifrey :)

As stated download the globular cluster generator addon and the planets will be textured...Or just delete the ssc file for M4...The psr ssc file should however have textures...
