It's been a while - maybe too late for some - but here is my completed planet pack collection.
I've broken the collection into two parts. The Basic pack replaces
all stock worlds included in SFC2: EAW, including asteroids; all of which are hard-pointed as per my original planet pack. Although most planets are not illuminated with city lights/effects, all do carry support for such illumination maps (beyond my standard atmospheric illumination.) A photoshop file is included to assist you in creating your own textures for customization.
Strange New Worlds - BasicThe Plus pack offers over twice as many custom planets (Vulcan, Andoria, Tellar, and
many more) as well as some experimental stuff such as Stars, a Black Hole, and Comet Model.
Strange New Worlds - PlusMost of the textures, as stated in the read me, are not mine but from multiple artist who develop for the fabulous planetarium program Celestia; but most textures have been altered and touched up - and in some cases, heavily for a more alien feel.
I hope you all enjoy them, I know I have.
