Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Here's some asteroids that I've been working on. I'm not in love with them, I think I'm going to start from scratch tomorrow. Eventually I want to figure out how to make an animated skybox with asteroids.

Well, they look better than some others we have in the FSport, definitely.

You're on the right track, will be waiting for your new version :yes:

Maybe give them a more metallic look? Really great work, dude! :nod:

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
A bit more rocky, granular look would be good, they kinda look like clay balls currently. Apart from that, they're looking quite good indeed :yes:

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Wow ... that's great.  Although I'm not quite sure what circumstances could lead a planet to be dark in the middle and lit around the edges...

Perhaps an eclipse by something very big and/or close.

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Here's a little progress with my asteroids. I think these are much better than my first try. What I'm going for is rocky craters on top of craters, like real asteroids. I'm going to forge these into pof's so that they can be used with the background. I've included scenes lit from the right, left, behind-top, and behind-bottom. When you mix and rotate you can get a good variety. I guess the next step is to figure out how to make an animated skybox. :wtf:

Spoiler:
In Arthur C. Clarke's "3001: The Final Odyssey", a mass of monoliths briefly create a huge disk and eclipse the sun.

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
When I started freding with my asteroids I found out I didn't have enough different lighting angles. So here's a new pack that's a lot more versatile. There's also jpegs of each so it's easier to fred them together. I included the far away-going around the planet asteroid pics too but they don't have an alpha and are not transparent so don't put a nebula behind them.

Didn't have much time to work on my objects, but there is still some progress to show :)
(forgot to shut off the reflections on the moon - so I'm aware of this)

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Now I see.... your moon should be a little more shiny and the earth looks smaller than that from there, aside from that it's a great piece of work :yes:
