Planet texture help

from Sins Forums

Does anyone know where I can find a tutorial on how to make new planet types and textures?

I'm sorry to bother everyone as I imagine this is a very common question, but I have searched the forum multiple times without success. When people have asked this in the past, someone usually links to an old tutorial on the subject, but I always get a '403 - permission denied' error.

So could some kind person please give a working link?

well im sorry to say I have no clue but that I too share this interest...

 

not for you reasons byt because I want to be able to texture a moon properly, I have been able to incorperate moons into any mod but they look terrible at best.

 

my question is if a planet can have resourse asteroids and other space rock debries that looks good why is there a problem with rendering something that looks good as a planet but so horrid as a moon?

 

thanks for any and all assistance here and I hope you get your answers soon skitly!

As you didn't specify the actual link you found, if it's an old style link and won't work, all you need to do is cut the ?AID= part out of it, so it looks like the url of this page (just forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/ followed by the 6-digit number).
