Venus (but it doesn't detailed enough):

I changed textures for Jupiter and Saturn and added for Uranus and Neptune. Not very detailed, but better that the default ones if looking from the distance:

Not bad. A suggestion would be to use the opportunity to make Neptune a more natural blue (like Uranus). Could be cool!

Thanks, I made it paler, but still more blue that Uranus:

I need some help with global cloud textures. I created surface and cloud tiles of levels 8 for Venus that cover the whole planet. The Venus.cfg contains lines:

; === Data for the Visual ===
TileFormat = 2
CloudFormat = 2
MaxPatchResolution = 8   
MinCloudResolution = 1   
MaxCloudResolution = 8

But in game I don't see cloud textures, namely they are black:



Cloud textures are solid (not transparency). I created them from a BMP image using plsplit64.exe.

It looks something is wrong with cloud settings for Venus, since I copied Earth clouds into Venus directory and they are black too, whereas they should be white:

There is a PDF file with descriptions of high-resolution Solar System textures that Space Engine uses:

Maybe anyone knows where to find their sources and if they are free for using in Orbiter?
