ok, links?

I also want to know how to make a biome map and height map for planets aswell.

A heightmap is just a greyscale image... If you need a tutorial about how to make a black and white image, that's too much to ask here.

A biome maps is just a RGB image, and you use a color tool to get the numbers for the colors (and use those in your biome definitions in the config file).

You can download my planet too, and look at what I did:

For biome maps, would a rgb color code look like this:

The numbers for the colors (which in this case is yellow) is the Hex (B6FF00), Right? And I would just put that number in a biome like this:

Biome

{

name = Large Crater

value = 10

color = B6FF00

}
