its a space flight simulator ^^ it focuses on being realistic and to scale, without being cartoony, you can fly real spacecraft in it like the space shuttle and dock with the ISS. or try to fly the Voyager spacecrafts past all 4 gas giants. etc.

Hey finally Umbriel!
It looks great, good job! The details seem quite realistic, and when rendering in Celestia it looks even more realistic than the photographic map (because of the ugly shading in Voyager images).
Now that the uranian moons are complete I can put the set of 5 in an optimized Celestia addon. I could send it to you so you can upload it on DA

IKR! and thanks it took forever eh! im glad it looks good = D hey i don't mind if you upload it, i will just link to it in my descriptions of each moon. how is that? = ) i already have it so that they all link to one master pack for space engine now

Awesome = ) mabey you can figure out the puck model too? ive always had issues exporting to Celestia for some reason doing Asteroids

Here is the Celestia addon: Uranus Project Missing Data - Celestia Addon
I hope it's ok this way
I still can include Puck later.

ok = )
and yeah looks awesome! how did you calibrate the colours?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm glad you like it! I calibrated brightness from albedo. Average pixel value = albedo^0.5 * 255
The colors not so much - for most of Uranus' moons we don't have proper color images, but I did my best processing them myself to get relative colors right. I think the pink hues of some voyager images are a processing artefact so I choose hues that look more natural.

Sure, if you can provide me with some model file (like obj or something) I can conert it to Celestia's format. Currently I'm using the roughsphere speudo-mesh for it.

Sent it to you via note and dropbox ^^

But you just did the 5 biggest moons around Uranus. There are 22 more moons around the planet.

... and about 1 million other known objects flying around the solar system. We should stick to the main bodies we know enough about to create such artist's concepts.
For Uranus apart from the 5 major moons there is only Puck we have a single poor image from. Not enough to create even a model, but maybe enough to create an artist's concept.
