Some changes to Trilogy's progress
Hello everyone, I'm here talking in a formal fashion to explain how things may change for the future of Trilogy: Exploration. It goes something like this:
Change A.
Beta 1.2 will have an extremely delayed release from what was previously thought. Why is this? Well, I do not want any beta of Trilogy to have any computer generated textures/visuals, which means I need to move in reverse and redo cloud textures and gad giants. This also includes plasma noise generated planet's. These planets include Dominion, Mare, Tange, and Raquel. All four of them will be getting a fully tangram makeover before Beta 1.2 will be released. This mod is meant to be the authentic predecessor to one of my very first planet packs, known as Artemis. All of the textures were space engine generated, and as far as I remember even the configs were stolen. This has caused me to strive for authenticity in my work, and hopefully the finished products will reflect this thought.
Change B.
Beta 1.3 will now be a completely planet focused beta. Before it was meant to include my revamps, but as of now I have revised these plans to bring the most authentic planets to this mod. Beta 1.3 will include many new planets to explore, all with full tangram heightmaps and original visual textures. The new planets will include: Ellis, Ida, Unnamed Desert Planet (Homeworld in Extinction), and 5 exciting outer planets. 
Change C.
Beta 1.4 will be a touch up beta. Fine tuned planets and new terrain features will come with this update. Interius and Foras will orbit a new barycenter to maintain realism.
Change D.
Release 1.0 will be the finished and fine tuned product of Beta 1.4, and will also include Parallax support.

Hopefully you can understand these major delays. Once Beta 1.2 is released, I will be removing @BobTheKerbal's credit as his contributions to the project will no longer be required.

I will see you all in Trilogy: Exploration Beta 1.2 shortly.
