This texture replaces the default Sun texture. This one has those four typical beams. Thanks for your downloads!

looks nice, I should give it a look. How does it have lens flares?
 
Technically, those are seen only in images taken from a reflecting telescope, most famously Hubble. The beams are light diffracting around the struts supporting the secondary mirror.

But hey, it looks nice. :thumbup:

Yes :) Even I just coulnd't leave it without finding out what the hell do those lines do there. But whatever, I always wanted them, they somehow enhance the bright look of a light source.
 
Right now I'm building a new star system. With this star texture, it feels a bit like it's all orbiting around one of those distant stars from HST photos...

Ackhem...

Preview pics, pretty please? :lol:

This is a very early preview. I'm trying to make the textures look as realistic as possible.The system will be rotating around an A9V-class star cca 1.5x heavier than our Sun. It will contain at least 50 objects: 9 planets, 20+ moons, some asteroids, maybe even comets. It should be a base for my planned interplanetary sci-fi project (United Systems Fleet turned out to be too complicated and buggy for futher development).
