I am having a huge art/idea block right now if anyone can give me any (realistic) ideas that would be amazing (no new moons however.)

Also, I am currently working on other (secret) projects that are taking a higher priority then this currently. Sorry about the holdup.

Is this mod still being developed? I can't wait to fly on Num

[Adstri]

Yes, but again, *artblock*

I've been experimenting with procedural planets recently. They are turning out very well, but not well enough. This is taking so long as I was these planet to be 100% fully fleshed out and detailed, and not just a couple of noiseballs thrown together in one day.

 

I would show new pictures, but all three worlds are WAY to WIP for now. Will try to get some up by next week.

So, I am working on this new texture. Still WIP, but I think it looks nice. The swirly done terrain is on purpose for effect.

Both moons are still to WIP to view.

Nibrek is 90% Complete. I tried to give it "terrain swirls" as the extreme heat would make the terrain change constantly and the rocks would be partiality melted. Kind of like Earth's mantle.

Anyways, what do you guys think? I need feedback.

And yes, the green orbit is counter-Mun's. I am working on the bumpmap as of now.

The orbit's the same but the planet is different - continue on!

[Adstri]

Yeah... That would likely be best

[Adstri]

Nibrek currently has 12 unique biomes. Can anyone give me ideas for names?

I feel like the biggest krater should be called "The Kauldron"

Thanks

Sorry about the hiatus, Life, US^{2 ,}and Pokémon Sun got in the way. But I think I can start working on this again!

[Fireheart318]

Once it's done, can you release Nibrek on its own and just update the mod when Num and Sumnim are done?

I have another suggestion, can there be a big mountain range with lava oceans at or near the poles? If you fly to Kerbins polar mountain range (slightly past the North Pole), you'll see some canyons and stuff. How awesome would it be hopping between mountains over rivers of lava? Something similar could be done for Num but I think it would look best on the hostile world of Nibrek!

Hmm... maybe, maybe not. The planet is extremely hot, so the terrain is sort of molten. Kind of like Earth's mantle, except of the surface. I took a break from Nibrek as making one planet for four weeks can drive one such as myself completely insane and mad. So I took a break from hell Nibrek for a little bit and started on... The Num (or Num eht!)

Looks awesome(!!!!!) but I feel like there could be a bit less water (more land), some deeper craters (with water), and rivers (leading into those craters). This is a drawing and a rough draft, so it's less detailed. Either way, it's your project, so you should do with it as you please

The drawing is actually the textures used for the planet put in a sphere. I just made this yesterday late at night falling asleep, so expect lots to change.

[Adstri]

More Num craters now have water! Heightmap balancing is tricky though.

I herby pronounce myself as the first person to do a legitimate mission to Nibrek!

@Adstriduum, when will the first version be released?
