There are several annoying glitches, such as the small size of the sliders, and it is disappointing that the other celestial bodies present in the application are not featured (yet?), but it is already a good product, the Textured Stars especially can be used for all sorts of particle effects such as snow and rain, so it is not such a one-purpose plugin. |

Only in beta for now, this plugin consists in fact in three simple modules : the most complex one, Nebula (pictured here) features a number of controls for creating nebulas of all sizes and colors, you can also select your viewpoint by setting the distance and rotating the nebula in the window at the bottom. Stars generates the starfield, once again you can go from the very realistic to the completely impossible ; and Textured Stars does the same thing, but you can chose between half a dozen types of stars.
