Sorry. I made a mistake in writing it actually meant that it even appears in the search bar but when I try to go to it it does not work at all;

[quote="DoctorOfSpace"][ref]AlexanderCadere[/ref], Maya and 3ds Max are the ones that seem to give the best results.[/quote]

Yeez! I just saw the price tag on these. Thanks for the quick reply!

Hi, I'm trying to make a blue gaseous planet in orbit from Jorgea (Star I created to make a mod) with the rings of Saturn. when I search it appears, but when I click on "Go To" it shows a message saying "Object not found". Can someone help me.

I'm having a little trouble understanding the proper use of tags and the settings for using CubeMap & IrfanView 64 to create custom textures. The instructions on the Forum are helpful, but a bit confusing or lacking certain clues.

I've never had much trouble creating 8bit RGB PNGs and converting them to RAW files and then creating the 6 folders and base texture. But I have yet to make a proper 16-bit greyscale bump map. (or a proper RGBA PNG, oh well, that can happen later on).

Usually, I will create a Photoshop PNG or PSD image 16384x8192, RGB 8-bit and save it. Since Photoshop can't work with images that large (anything over 30,000 pixels wide), or save in the RAW file format, I convert the PNG or PSD to Greyscale in IrfanView 64 and increase the number of colors to 16 million. Then I'll resize it up to 32768x16384. I will then save it as a RAW file, around 1.5GB in size. They usually work fine for the detail I want when doing clouds or surface textures. Even with than many colors I think it is still an 8-bit file. Also, I don't know why, but Irfanview 64 calls images with than many colors a 24-bit image file.

I have tried converting a few of them to 16-bit Greyscale RAWs with Irfanview but after running CubeMap they were terribly distorted and completely unusable, even though I was able to load and save them as 16-bit greyscale after running CubeMap. I'm pretty sure I was saving the RAWs as Planar (RRR, GGG, BBB).

I have created colored (not modulated) cloud layers in the past by setting InputChannels to 3, but with all these Bump Maps, I've kept it on the setting for Greyscales; 1, even if I didn't specifically convert it to greyscale in Irfanview. It looks greyscale but it is still RGB. Those worked fairly well too. They were all 8-bit files.

What should the settings be in CubeMap for the following tags in order to create a working 16-bit Bump Map?

# Input RAW file format
InputWidth      32768    
InputHeight     16384    
InputChannels   1
Input16bit      true       # capacity: 16 or 8 bits per channel        //true = 16-bit so, yeah
InputByteSwap   false        # for 16-bit: little endian                //true is for MAC computers?
InputUnsigned     true        # for 16-bit: unsigned or signed values    //I don't have a clue

# Output files format
OutFormat       png         //I like PNGs
OutFormat2      png         //I like PNGs
TileWidth       256         //Pretty sure this is right
TileBorder      1           //Pretty sure this is right
Out16bit        false      //Would be set as true if I could get it to work right
OutByteSwap     false       //Pretty sure this stays false
OutUnsigned     true       //I don't have a clue
OutInvertAlpha  true        //I don't have a clue
OutJPEGquality  100         //I think I know what this means lol
SeparateRGBA    false       //Once I figure out Bump Maps I will use this to make Alpha images
SeparateHiLo    false       //I wouldn't mind if they are separate files...
DoublePrecision false      //I don't have a clue

# Normalization of the elevation map
Normalize       true            //I think this is correct...
EnterNormData   false           //I think this is correct...
NormMinValue    -32768        //Is this right at all?
NormMaxValue    32768            //Is this right at all?

# The basic cylindrical texture
BaseTexFormat   png             //I like PNGs for base textures
BaseTexDownSize 64              //32768/512=64

# Parameters for optimization of homogeneous tiles
MinVar          20.0            //Is this supposed to be what the Bump Map height is set on in the scripts?

# Memory settings
MaxMem          1024        //I don't have a clue
MethodSide      Line        //I don't have a clue
MethodPolar     Line        //I don't have a clue

# Faces to process        //I don't have a clue
Create_NEG_X    1    
Create_POS_X    1
Create_NEG_Y    1
Create_POS_Y    1
Create_NEG_Z    1
Create_POS_Z    1

# Stages                //I don't have a clue
CreateBaseTex   1       
ComputeFaces    1       
DownsizeFaces   1      
UpdateEdges     1       
TileFaces       1       
OptimizeTiles   0       

i have no idea what that is but maybe ill learn at some point...

If something is missing I'm sorry. I'm not used to making gas giants so I do not know how the difference should be.

The Planet Script :

It lacks a closing parenthesis in your script.
Also, I've added a few notes to the script, you may want to change the appropriate parameters.

[s]HeitorBarbosa47842,[/s]
[s]Atmosphere tag is missing a closing bracket. It's always a good idea to count opening/closing brackets.[/s]

Thank you, sorry to bother you, I am accustomed to making stars, galaxies, nebulae, clusters and rocky and dwarf planets.

But I am not used to create gas giants

Created a system called Zuay and I wanted to export the procedural planets but the exporter doesn't do it right with the names by making it from "Zuay 1" to simply "1"

That's normal, you have to change names manually.

Pretty all the objects that includes asteroid comets and many moons. Is there a faster way?

Is there a faster way?

Usually the simplest method in a case like this is using the "search & replace" feature commonly available in every text editor.
