+*The textures themselves are not in this oxp anymore. Those textures are now in the Povray Planets OXP (it makes the updating process easier if one need not download massive texture files as well when only the textual descriptions have been tweaked!). To see the textures you need the Povray Sets also.
 *The music packs are also taken out of the oxp. I want to make some new music and/or make a hyperradio station pack for the [[Hyperradio js OXP|Hyperradio OXP]] by Svengali.

-The new version of Famous Planets is here! This OXP adds planetary texts to the F7 screen. The text expand on the original descriptions and include elements from Oolite fiction. The OXP is designed to work in Tandem with the Povray Planets set that you can read all about in [http://aegidian.org/bb/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=11594&hilit=povray+planets this thread.] If you have the Povray set then you also SEE the textures that I made. This version does not include the textures anymore.

Many descriptions are true to the described planets in Drew Wagar's novellas [[Status Quo]] and [[Mutabilis]]. Others are short extracts from the excellent [[Rough Guide]] by Disembodied that can be found on the wiki. Further descriptions were contributed by many others (see credits).

 Download the '''original textures''' from [http://www.aegidian.org/bb/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=11594 here]. One set for each galaxy. Note that there are two different renderings of the first galaxy, this link only gives the later version which is a different vintage from the other seven galaxies.
