SE 0.980 is not gamma-correct, SE 0.990 is. What modifications did you add?[/quote]

I square rooted the tonemap shader output, which is a reasonable approximation of the sRGB gamma curve. Of course, without first squaring all the appropriate inputs, a lot of things become far too bright with plenty of nasty banding. Still, it was clearly a boost in realism where it mattered. The tonemapping algorithm that is already present at least works as some sort of pseudo-correction, for I tried disabling that, and that made the gamma-incorrect lighting far more evident.
It's nice to hear that the new version changes this.

Is the changelog at the beginning of this thread still acurate?

It should be as far as additions to the new version go. I haven't seen any dev. posts yet discussing additions that were not mentioned in the CL.

Great model, thanks!

As with Mattias Malmer's Churyumov-Gerasimenko 3D model we now have a model (by NASA) for Asteroid Bennu with a resolution down to 75 cm. There are no textures for now and the model will probably improve in the near future but I thought I had to mention it if there is interest to add it to SE.

I will come back soon from the death, I've been busy for a few months because of work and family issues, but I will try to keep on track this forum and the things I promissed I would have done by now. Just give me some time to readapt.

Very hyped for 0.990 release, so much new stuff to see, I remember getting all excited when 0.980 came out but this is something else! 
Thank you for your beautiful work!

Oh man so close yet more waiting.

Beautiful results! That 3D effect looks incredible. Genius work as always

I just feel sorry for people with weak GPUs...
Maybe I must start saving for Titan RTX.. You know, just to be sure for when SE ver 1.00 comes out
The 3D effect sure looks magnificent NathanKerbonaut!
I wonder what kind of hardware SE will require once complex shadows are implemented?..

The new surface terrain looks amazing! I'm glad to hear that the generated terrain crashing has been fixed.

The new 3d rocks look incredible! So close yet so far. Maybe it'll be ready to release within the year?

My dream of volumetric landscapes and other objects in SE is coming closer. *wipes tear from eye*.

Now thats what I'm talking about! finally fast loading of terrain and much higher detail as well! 

3D rocks sure are a nice addition.
