These are all nebulas right?

Yes, the only places named after real locations are nebulae.

| Work In Progress.
Well, I've gotten the dust texture method working, however, I think I'll revert to the one that Solaris gave me since it's kind of difficult to get that one right. I also should remove more of the yellow of the core.
Edit: Uh, what happened here. Earlier when I had Solaris's dust texture in, it looked like the first image, but now, when I put them back in, it looks all strange. I've gotten the sys texture to where I'm satisfied with it, so thats out of the way, but I have no clue what happened with the dust texture.
Edit2: Actually, part of it may be that I removed WAY too much of the core than I was supposed to. I'll work on it tomorrow or something.

| Anybody have a clue as to what happened above? I used the exact same image both times. I know I can just go and make my own (although I don't know how to make the colorized version of the dust like the one Solaris gave me), but I liked the way it looked before it suddendly broke somehow the second time.
Also, I know I could post that on the galaxies section, but I thought this could be used for general troubleshooting since it IS a plugin development thread. I was asking how to make the model on the other thread, but this is entirely different.

Dust shouldn't be colorized, alpha channel is grayscale, not color.

I'm talking about the alpha channel example (as an example of what I mean) that Solaris posted here. Speaking of greyscale, maybe I'll try making the the ones that Solaris gave me, greyscale, and see what happens.
Edit: Making those two images greyscale broke the galaxy even more (only the core is visible), Now i'm more confused.....
Edit2: I re-added the alpha textures and it's fine now, wierd. O.o Must have done something wrong the second time, but just what, I have no clue.

| ^ I still need to see that movie!
I guess this is a hello as well- I've been lurking around here for ~15 days.
I stumbled across this AMAZING piece of software from a random suggestion in Yahoo! Answers. (someone had asked about good space simulators)
This beats the hell out of Celestia, and, well. Really every other universe simulator out there.
SUPREME KUDOS to Mr. Valdimir. 
Oh, and thank you dontpanic for the awesome Eve ship models!
---> Which brought to mind engine exhaust graphics. I think it'd be cool to see some physics-enabled engine flares on those sweet models :P Or is that even realistic?
Anyhow. Perhaps SpaceEngineer will add these naturally to the game with time.

A ship model wouldn't constitute as a spoiler... welcome to the forums!
Quote (AustinMclEctro) physics-enabled engine flares
I'm not sure what you are even talking about... lens flares? Engine exhaust flames that wave around (not realistic)? SE has lens flares for stars. I would guess lens flares for ships would be just as possible.

That's what I meant. My bad 
Quote (werdnaforever) SE has lens flares for stars.
I think they're quite nice at the moment. Haven't had the itch to install the Mass Effect style yet!

| I was thinking of this a long time ago. since we have the capability of adding our own systems, I was thinking of adding the planets featured in the Homeword series of game. Any suggestions?

| ZackG, I have already started working on a Homeworld addon a while ago, but the incorrect orientation of M 51 in 0.96 (and my being too lazy to figure out how to overcome that) put it on hold. Hopefully in 0.97 that will be fixed. I have worked on the Kharak and Hiigara systems so far. I also plan to add the Great Nebula.
Also, I'm merging this with the Addon Development thread, which is where it should be.
