About

This OXP showcases the improvements on custom planets that were made available since version 1.89. It converts Zaonce to Venus. It uses a 8192 x 4096 texture for diffuse, which is built by combining a surface and a cloud texture into one. Obviously, with such texture size, it is recommended that you use this OXP on reasonably powerful systems. Intel graphics cards will have a hard time with it.

The OXP can be used with Oolite v1.89 and later, but if you run it on v1.91 and later, you will be able to take advantage of the air_density property, which is used to make the planet's atmosphere really thick.
