*note* Yes I know the station's model went to hell...for some reason TS4.2 decided to add holes on the renders  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

I'll update the image once I get it fixed

OMG that looks like its INGAME... GREAT!!!

I can see you took my advice about the lens flares from ur last render.


that ship on middle right has a bright side on the left of it, even though the sun should be hitting the right side...

Out of over 15 billion stars in our galaxy we can estimate roughly half would have a planetary body orbitting them...takingthat into account....nothing could be considered impossible.

Being we've got planets in OUR own solar system with storms well over 300 miles long,...why would it seem so odd something else could be out there?

Besides,..All of our studies are based off the effects within our system,...in one of the other galaxies the same might not be true.

Very, very nice for both of them - top work. Just one thing, you have to flip this second one, as the 02 is backwards  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

The normals are flipped from POF2COB, IIRC. I think Kazan's code fixes that - you just need to flip it post-production.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

coz jupiter is a gaz giant. when there's only gaz on a planet, it's not hard to have one single cloud all over the planet, if I want to exagerate.

Cool, although I still think using the 'real clouds' option in Lunarcell looks MUCH better.

All I'm saying is given the shear number of planets in our own galaxy, yet alone in the other known galaxies, it's simply mathmetically possible  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) lol

weather systems capable of producing clouds like that would mean VERY fast winds and a hot sun - but its not impossible

Somehow, even though you said that TrueSpace did something wrong with the installation, it did do it with the right unexpected results. It looks like the NTF station was bombarded from afar and is now nothing more than a wreakage.
