Basically more water, Less land, more diverse land masses?

Yeh but there is still a lot of little land pieces in that. It may not be possible with that plugin. They look good anyways.

That looks pretty cool... We'll need lots of different styles anyways so we can have some island and some continental planets.

If anyone's played Civ4 there is a terrain generator in there thats pretty cool, too bad we can't use that :P

No, not made using that plugin, I made it on my very lonesome. Not what you asked for but hey, I figured you could find a use for a texture like this. No bump map, sorry.

That's because civ4 is godly.

And I think the 'terran' type planets would fit better with darker greens. The bright radioactive green just doesn't fit somehow.

Think of it as nuclear waste xD

assuming nuke waste is actually green, that would be realistic, Blue and Biggee.

On Earth several hundred thousand years ago, there was a natural nuclear reaction going in African. This was on a Nuclear power plant to Manhattan sized scale. And nuclear waste was produced.

Do you snort, smoke, or shoot up something everytime before you post?

So comments are bad, Voodoo?, because thats exactly what I was doing.

And besides, maybe I was off about 1.7-2.0 billion years ago, but meh, here's the links about what I'm talking about.

So what if they're yellow, too. SS is not realistic. Ask the Space Rats.

Also, Biggee, that really is a nice planet you made. :)

Yellow Cake <<< uranium ore, plutonium is whitish metallic, the was is usually stored in graphite (greyblack) or leaded glass so whatever, it can really be any color. Neon green is just assotiated with radioactivity though.

There was a Clive Cussler (not sure if it was a dirk pitt novel) written about that, but in that story the nazis where secretly mining it in the past and now some terrorist organization was trying to get a hold of it or something.

Sorry for not knowing this before, but we also will want the "Ocean Mask" for your planets so that we can make the sunlight reflect off the water. Hopefully you saved some of your settings. =)

*cough*

No settings saved (Why oh why would I save them? :P).
