Create Planets in Seconds | Custom Planet Blender Addon 

Ok, this is actually dope, and the potential behind this is quite literally astounding.

I definitely recommend this addon! It's very easy to use and incredible fast, allowing for quick iterations and many great results!

Just bought this, very cool add-on, nice work :)

yo hi i just saw that you also provide a free venetor class model and i just wanted to let u know how thankful i am right now because animating that ship is like the reason why i want to start blender and i just couldt find a free model like on scetchfab or sth so thank u very much :D

Really nice addon! Do you think it would be possible to add a sun lamp or sky texture node (in the starfield background) and make it match the lighting setup? So that the shadow on objects matches the shadow of the planet. I was also wondering if you could add a visible sun (I know you could technically use the planet shader for this, but separate controls would be nice! Combining these aspects, the visible sun could automatically adapt to the lighting on the planet, so you only have to change one value in the lighting setup. idk, could be interesting to explore!

YOOOOO GUYS, I WOULD REALLY RECOMMEND YOU GUYS TO TRY THIS OUT! 5 HOURS WORK IN JUST 4 MINUTES. THANK YOU SO MUCH BRO. YOU REALLY HELPED ME OUT IN MY PROJECT. CHEERS TO YOU IN FUTURE!!!!!

Nice addon, Does it work on both plane spherical ?

Great 👍

Very cool, hopefully you can change the lighting method so users can pick a custom light direction instead of having just 4 light coverage steps

Just bought your addon. It's a such a fantastic tool to use! Do you have a discord by any chance? If you want to improve it further, at the moment all light setups, surfaces, clouds etc are based on textures, which are by the way super easy to change or add our own, the color ramp could be explored more and a feature which help to mix different surfaces or clouds would be excellent.

I tried the free version, considering buying it, really like startled like planet which is " fake", perfect for background use, but I want to know how can you make the planet always facing the camera like in starfield?

THANK YOU🙏🙏🙏

Can I enter the planet's atmosphere? Like a volumetric effect?

Hiya, just bought this addon myself. I've also come across the issue where the blender menu says "this directory does not exist", when selecting the images folder. I'm using blender version 3.6.1, and I extracted the CustomPlanetImages folder as well before attempting. is there any known fix for this? Without it I cannot press the "New" button or any other planet features, only the starfield function. Running on windows btw

yo sup man i was trying to use that free version you provided but whenever i setup the planet and added a camera to the scene when i look through the camera the planet doesn't shows in the camera.

Прекрасно

The link in the description is not clickable, but it works when copy-pasted! might want to fix that :)

Thanks for sharing nice Addons. I created the Planet with Addons. I assigned a camera to the scene. I applied "Align Active Camera to View" and tried to adjust the camera manually, but the planet did not appear in the camera. What would be the reason. Thanks.

I just purchased the full version and all that is in the menu is my starfield background information. I'm using Blender 3.6.2 and unable to figure out how to load a planet. Is there additional info I need or is this program incompatible with 3.6.2?

Hey guys! A great video but I am just new to blender. I know it's a dumb question but how to just start it? I have added the add-on in blender, but have no idea how he got the planet directly. Do I have a create a planet first and then continue with the add-on?

hi! i downloaded the free version of this addon to play around with it. but noticed that whatever planet im making can only be seen in the viewport, but not by the camera. am i missing something?

great add on . but i sent you a mail because i have a problem "this directory doesn't exists" when i enter my image folder. thanks for helping

Hello! I’ve run into an issue where the planet isn’t visible when I view active camera or render it. Is there a workaround for this?

Mate are you available for freelance work? I'm doing a space-based RTS and need some help on the art side of things - namely planets, other celestial bodies, and spacecraft.

i need help with installing it. i have added it in to blender but it says choose directory and when i do nothing happenes

Hey, are you still working on this? I am enjoying it! but I can't get the planet to show up in my camera, like when I try to render nothing is there?

is that only a plane image or a spherecal ?

when i create starfield, background becomes grey, when i create planet, it just gives me a white plane, not sure what i am doing wrong here?

Hi, I just downloaded the free version of the addon. I went to the side menu and started messing around but it’s just a white square? Yours turned into a planet instantly, I’d there something need to do? Or is that all the free version is?

are you using the free version or the paid version, for this tutorial

when I am in camera view the planet disappears a fix for that??

Sorry but i wanted to save time and spent 30$ on this just to discover that no matter what i do the planet wont show on the camera so i cant render it wich makes the whole thing kinda useless tbh. Please tell me how to fix it bc i really need the render (Ps. Its all there in rendered view but the camera cant seem to register the planet for some reason so when i render its just stars)

Addon is not working I don’t why am I doing something wrong

Link please

I clicked 'New planet` and nothing appeared! Ok I clicked viewport shading above and now I can see the planet. But the planet is flat!! It's not even a sphere. wtf?? I don't understand how EVERYONE managed to make it work perfectly????

Why it's flat? LoL

Hope you can gift me for free because I cant affort the 25$ one and it would be great because I am 14 year old student
