... I no longer develop my OXP's. I lost interest when the Shady Planets branch of code died, combined with a bug I'd run into with the cubemap converter (I forget the name of that tool now) that was lingering for a long time.

If I ever got a bug up my backside to work on it again, I had several planet textures that were unreleased, and was going to rework gas skimming since scriptable volume control had been added. I might update / release that stuff...
Any chance of your just eyeballing my attempts at a synopsis of your work in Guide to Ambience OXPs? I failed to get it to work on my AppleMac with Oolite version 1.90, so I've had to guess!

And do you have any good images I can use for your pages on our wiki?

Oh ... what was the shady planets branch of code?

Synopsis: Looks good. Sorry to hear it doesn't work anymore in 1.90 on applemac.

I have some images I can share. PM me and I can probably come up with a few.

Shady planets was a branch of code that looked to introduce shaders to planets rather than just basic textures. I mocked up the look of one such by introducing a super large spherical ship that had no AI...

Nice!
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

Oh, I would note that on the DH page, the Nav Buoy is, AFAIK, the default in-game now.

Cody says that your original is better, by the way...

This is one of the greatest gotchas I've stumbled over the intertubes in a while :mrgreen:
