Elysium Version 2.0 - Rebuilt for Water Mod

Description
Elysium is a habitable ocean world full of bioluminescent plant life. Covered mostly in water there is one large continent that has a small desert like region in the core of its fattest section. Many very large islands of which some could be considered mini continents make up most of the remaining dry land long with several much smaller islands that usually hover nearby. Under the waves reveals the vast oceans bioluminescent plants as well as a great void as the sun light fades into the two kilometer deep sections of the ocean. Only at the deepest points of the ocean floor will you find a unique and small set of bioluminescent plants thriving around the warmth coming from spots of lava that can be found in several locations around the world.

Disclaimer: Screenshots from Space were done with extreme voxel settings with watermod turned off. Watermod seems to have an odd and ugly LOD that is probably related to how deep Elysiums ocean is. I am looking into this issue but not sure if I can fix it on my end.

Note: Shader Setting must be set to 'High' for bioluminescence to work.

Additional Note: Version 2.0 is unfortunately not compatible with your worlds using the old one do to extensive heightmap changes. This means while you can just simply swap the mods out and it will work - anything you have done on the surface will either be under the ground or really high in the air.

Recommended Skybox: _SD_Nebula_Hi-Res_SkyBox_

All ores including Platinum and Uranium can be found on the planet however platinum is only in two hard to find places and uranium is not just hard to find but somewhat dangerous to mine but, is significantly more common than platinum.

WaterMod will automatically create the ocean with all its needed settings upon spawning the planet.

Eylsium and its moons are made with full custom textures (custom voxels) and will not override any vanilla textures.

--- Planet Settings ---

Recommended Size = 120000m (120km)
Oxygen Level = High
Gravity = 0.94g

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Iyo is the largest moon of Elysium and is covered almost entirely in a thick stormy atmosphere. Like the planet it orbits Iyo also contains bioluminescent life but mainly in the form of ice dwelling micro organisms however it does have some towering organisms that live near the moons ice deposits.

Most ores except Platinum and Uranium can be found on the moon.

--- Moon Settings ---

Recommended Size = 36000m (36km)
Oxygen Level = Very Low
Gravity = 0.32g

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ati is covered with numerous craters and an extremely thin atmosphere making it devoid of life entirely and is the smallest moon of Elysium.

All ores except Uranium can be found on the moon.

--- Moon Settings ---

Recommended Size = 23000m (23km)
Oxygen Level = None
Gravity = 0.27g

Would it be permissible to use this planet as a testbed for teaching myself ore mapping? I'm trying to put together a solo scenario for a short YouTube series that will utilize Industrial Overhaul and needs custom ore mapping. Full credit for the planet would of course be given to you, and the IO version would be kept as a private/unlisted workshop item in my library.

I can discuss full details of my plan through messages here or Discord if you'd like additional information before deciding on whether to grant or deny permission.

Are the polar white Islands supposed to be sand or ice covered? It drops as stone when dug.

Ohh..well you know sometimes you subscribe to a planet and you need to add manually the water. Ok.. thanks for letting me know.

@Dots should be automatic on spawning of planet

what settings do i use for water mod?

@xXShadowNinjaXx This mod predates any AI tools that I know of. The only tool I used for texture creation is photoshop.

Repost: How do you make your textures? I'm currently creating a mod that adds new ores ingots and components and such, but I'm having a hard time making seamless textures that look good, so how do you do it? Do you make your images, or do you use some sort of AI or something?
