| I have been trying to modify Venus in RC2 but instead of fully using the provided replacement .sc SE will create a hybrid of the new file and the original. For example I removed Venus' packaged cloud and surface textures from the .sc because I wanted to use procedural clouds and surface. Is there a way to fix this?
Here is the my .sc for Venus to look over:

| Quote Silicon ( ) Nope, didn't do anything. I still believe that SE is creating a hybrid of the packaged SolarSys.sc and the overwrite file.
I don't know how to fix this, I've never encountered that problem.
If you put the new venus in a new sc file however, try removing the Solarsys.sc from the universe.cfg

Are we using the same version? I am using RC2. .sc's aren't loaded from universe.cfg in RC2. They automatically load from the addons folder.

I have added under 'Surface'
Code DiffMap "NONE" // use procedural texture
and under 'Clouds'
Code DiffMap "NONE" // use procedural texture

If you want a blue Venus atmosphere, you need to edit the atmosphere.
This is with 'Model "Earth"' instead of 'Model "Venus"'.

| Ostarisk,
You could set the value of 'craterMagn' to 0. Then the comet looks like this:

| I had the same issue with Venus in RC 2 as well, with the one in the addons folder overlapping the existing one in solarsys.sc in the data folder. The only solution I found was to add this to my new Venus in addons:
Doing this got rid of the old Venus, but I had to use a slightly different name in order for it to work (Such as "Venus (TPE)"), since using "Venus" for the name inexplicably put me right back at square one.

| PlutonianEmpire,
Maybe it really is the easiest way to change the names! 
But I have the script changed a little. Try it.
The problem is this:
If you remove an object with 'Remove', but make a new object with the old name and the same parent object, SE relies on the old object.
To prevent 'SpaceEngine' uses the textures, you need to disable it.
This is done with 'DiffMap "NONE"'. This is for 'Surface' and for 'Clouds'
If 'Clouds' should be transparent, you have to use 'DiffMapAlpha "Transp"'.
If the planet has water, should be inserted 'DiffMapAlpha "Water"' in the 'Surface' section.
I also have the commented 'Earth' removed from the script.
With block comments there is a problem when you have nested block comments
For example:
Code /*
Some code
Some code
...
/*
more code
more code
...
*/ THIS ENDED THE COMMENTS
Another code // THIS IS NOT COMMENTED
...
/* FROM HERE IS COMMENTED
more code
more code
...
*/ THIS ENDED AGAIN THE COMMENTS
Another code // THIS IS NOT COMMENTED
...
*/
This can certainly cause problems with SE.
Don't forget to look here.

| If I use the DiffMap "None" with clouds for a terra, and I add three new cloud layers for 3 procedural clouds, will the game still add that new, 3rd procedural layer, or will the game cut it out and continue using the invisible 1st cloud layer, making mse see only 2 visible cloud layers instead of 3?

I think so. You can see this if you export the planet in the editor.
These are the three 'Clouds' layers which SE generated for Venus.
Code Clouds
{
Height 50
Velocity -264
BumpHeight 5.68619
Hapke 0.2
SpotBright 2
SpotWidth 0.15
DayAmbient 3
ModulateColor (0.350 0.350 0.350 1.000)
mainFreq 1.00981
mainOctaves 10
Coverage 0.271344

twistMagn 1.11071
}

DayAmbient 2
mainFreq 1.00981
mainOctaves 10
Coverage 0.271344
twistZones 1.71727
twistMagn 1.11071
}
I also found that the script does not work properly in any of my three RC2 installations.
It works in my 'Clean' installation and in my 'Custom universe' installation.
It does not work properly in my actual work installation. I do not know yet why.
But I really have a lot of stuff in it. Sometimes I lose track.
Don't forget to look here.
