WarpDrive Celestials

The addon swaps the flat planet and celestial renders of WarpDrive for three-dimensional bodies. Planets draw as blocky cubes unless the config is changed, and an optional sphere mode gives smoother planets. Sphere rendering has level-of-detail presets, labeled Performance, Balanced and Quality, that reduce mesh complexity for smaller distant objects. Planets also receive a subtle randomized tilt and rotation, and the background shows varied colors.

The mod is installed on the client, so an individual player can enable 3D planets alone. Shared visuals across a server need the server side as well, which adds support for custom render layers, custom rings, custom day and night textures and cubemap textures for planets and clouds. Cubemap detection is automatic, and textures with a 1:1 aspect ratio, such as 512x512 squares, are read as single-face images. WarpDrive Celestials requires WarpDrive on the same loader.
