That's an interesting point - I wonder if someone can re-map Darks sphere model to use huge textures. It'd make the planets a hell of a lot more detailed - even if they aren't quiet spherical.

IIRC, no changes to the model need to be made. Simply changing the resolution of the map will produce the effect you want; if the current map was called 'planet01.pcx' and was 256*256, I could simply create a new planet01.pcx at 1024*1024 and the model would simply reference to the new texture.

Yeah, those are actual meshes. They arent round, theyre a dome actually. One side with the textures, the other without...
could easily put them ingame...

Actually I wouldn't really call Kharak your home planet... but it IS where you start off.

What it does is like superheats the entire planet or something similar, I forgot what the attackers said the degrees were in the "cutscene", summit likt 50000, dunno tho.
