Planets, Moons and More

A collection of space objects with physics.

PLANETS
- Mercury (three skins: black and white, enhanced color and false color)
- Venus (radar map of surface)
- Earth
- Mars
- Jupiter
- Saturn
- Uranus
- Neptune

MOONS
- Luna (Earth's moon), available as luna_big (same size as Earth) and luna_small (roughly to real-life scale with Earth)
- Jupiter's moons Callisto, Europa, Ganymede and Io
- Saturn's moons Titan (radar map of surface), Mimas (two skins: black and white and enhanced color) and Enceladus
- Neptune's moon Triton

MORE
- The Sun (glows, has two skins)
- The dwarf planets Ceres and Pluto
- Celestial, a sphere which draws a starfield texture on the inside of the model instead of the outside

CREDITS
- Earth, Celestial and luna_small are models and textures from Kreedz Climbing (where they are originally called zeme02, skykos and moon, in that order). Kreedz Climbing has given permission for credited asset reuse in workshop add-ons: https://steamproxy.net/app/626680/discussions/2/3726075043709576049/ . I recompiled and renamed them for use in Gmod.
- luna_big uses the Kreedz Climbing moon texture, which I remapped to the bigger Earth model.
- Because Uranus is almost completely featureless in visible light, I took a color swatch from a Voyager 2 photo and wrapped the Kreedz Climbing Earth model in just that color.
- Saturn uses a model kit from NASA that I just ported wholesale. Thanks to the kind people at the Loiste Community Discord for helping me troubleshoot it.
- All the other models use the Kreedz Climbing Earth model and public domain space imagery from NASA, and were compiled by me.

NOTES
- Most textures are 4096 x 2048. This makes for nice, detailed models, but the official GMod add-on instructions caution that some video cards may have trouble with textures that high-resolution.
- This model pack will appear in the add-on sidebar as "Planets, Moons and More"
- Up SHOULD be the North Pole for all models, but no promises.
- Some models - notably Pluto and Triton - are partially black. This is not a texture error; NASA just doesn't have complete surface images for those worlds.
- Some models also have visible seams in places; this is from where different mapping passes were stitched together.
- The basic model shape for all these worlds is a sphere; the actual topography (mountains, valleys) is not approximated.
- Saturn is an exception; the model is a proper oblate spheroid (but it rolls like a sphere because the collision box is the same as all the other models. The rings do not have physics.
- I don't take requests, but if you run into a bug, please let me know and I'll try to fix it.

UPDATES
- 12/23/19: Added Jupiter.
- 12/24/19: Thanks for featuring this! Added the Sun, Uranus and Jupiter's moon Europa.
- 12/26/19: Added Mimas. Replaced Uranus texture with a smaller one to save space; as a flat color, it renders the same.
- 5/21/21: Wow, how 'bout that pandemic, huh? Added Neptune (I FINALLY found a NASA texture map for it) and fixed the spelling "Plants" in the .json file.
- 12/19/21: Two days shy of two years after starting, I finally have Saturn for you. What a long, strange trip it's been.

If you use these in a GMod video, put a link in the comments and I'll watch it!
