Bugs with my mod

[users14]

So as it turns out, my mod has a few issues. For example, even with a texture, the gas planet is completely black as seen in the images below

Edit: When placing a regular Jool, it seems to be illuminated correctly

Second edit: This issue happens when I apply the texture to the ScaledVersion.

Here is my texture below:

Third edit: Something was likely wrong with my texture. OPM Urlum's texture worked, but when I tried to use the Ignis texture, it did the same glitch.

How are you saving your texture, i.e. file type, compression, etc.?

I'm using GIMP to do so, and from what I know, I used DTX5 compression and exported it with GIMP as a DDS. There are also mipmaps, and I'll try disabling mipmaps and see if it works.

Edit: After removing mipmaps, it works perfectly

Try DXT1 with mipmaps.

Mipmaps with DTX1 also causes the same issue. I can live without mipmaps, though.

That's strange.  I've never had mipmaps cause an issue like that.  Generally mipmaps are recommended for color maps.

Edit: So it turns out, the main issue was the specular color, and not mipmaps.
