*Blender procedural texture to make Lave look more ... agricultural.

... and night side lights on Lave too[**]


**Managed to stick the lights to the ground areas

That'd look good with the ambient light turned way down.

These planet screenshots i like very much !

Or perhaps a little blur to simulate atmosphere...

Your wishes are my commands
This one has ambient level of 0.005 and I left the clouds "on" (as you can see Lave is quite a cloudy one).

Nice!

@Commander_X: Can I haz shader for lights please?

Can I haz it too?

It's nothing but the Lave brought by the "perlin_3d = yes;" option in planetinfo.plist (besides the extra night side).
Somehow it proves my point for the first image I posted on this page: it's too rocky and has a too small water surface for it to be agricultural.

a_c and Cody, haz you do! (PM)

Muchas gracias! My homeworld looks lovely tonight...

Thank you good sir! Looks great, let's see if we can do something to improve performance on low-end systems a bit

Gosh this new shader looks so good! Any plans of getting this released soon?

How was the shimmer when approaching the planet on torus?

Considering it. There is a visible performance hit on my Intel HD610 when the planet enters view now. Most likely it will come up on master in the near future, but if there are any optimizations that cam be applied, it would be great.

@Cody: Can't say I noticed a difference in the shimmering when approaching with Torus compared to the shimmering under normal conditions, but did not pay particular attention to it. I'll check again sometime tomorrow.
