This asset was created by studying a large amount of real videos and photos of the Sun, including the movement of prominences, surface motion, magnetic storms, plasma behavior, and more. Additionally, all materials have the ability to change practically any parameter, such as animation speed, color, tiling, glow in different areas, displacement settings, and much more. Very easy to use.
The asset is designed not only for animation quality and visual realism but also for gameplay. Therefore, a golden mean was found in optimizing textures and meshes. As a result, a photorealistic and high-quality star model was created, with very high performance (you can see this in the screenshots).
As an additional bonus, the asset includes the planet Mercury with exclusive 8K textures, manually crafted from materials taken from NASA satellites.
