FPO Zaonce
FPO (Famous Planets Overhaul) Lave - an overhaul of Sector1/Lave based on the Famous Planets description. For the enhanced graphics of Oolite version 1.90
This OXP changes visual appearance of Zaonce using custom 4096 x 2048 textures for diffuse and specular maps.
Conflicts and dependencies
Any packages using script to redefine Zaonce texture, such as Povray Planets, will overwrite the FPO Zaonce texture. In case of custom Zaonce textures redefined in planetinfo.plist result will be dependent from loading order. The latest planetinfo.plist in loading order has highest priority. For example, another_commander's Lave is Earth will load before FPO Zaonce and FPO Zaonce will have priority. But if you have an old OXP with a custom Zaonce texture in the AddOn folder, it will load after FPO Zaonce and overwrite it. In any case having one custom texture for one planet, not several, is right.
