Looking for Rotating Earth or planet sprites

Hi everyone I was wondering does any one know of any Rotating Earth or other planet sprites, I have checked opengameart.org and a few others with no such luck.

Any help appreciated!

This should help.

Btw you can resize all 99 Frames by clicking "Resize" button and choosing "Apply to whole animation". I think 400px x 400px is a little to much.

One question, firstly thanks for the effort you put in to create the capx for me!

but how did you put the gif into separate frames? when I try to add it to the animation it just goes to 1 frame?

Nevermind im an idiot I just figured it out, once again thanks for your time!

I have created a 3D planet pack, Available on the new store

I am going to create 2d animated planets soon too, if you are interested. Let me know how many you need?

Great, ill take a look and let you know if I need any.

Hi Stctr,

could you re-up the capx please?

It would be very helpful for me.

Thank you.

Thanks buddy.

I was wrong not reading the whole post. It's only a sprite with various frames. I was searching for a way to create this effect starting from a 2d image. All methods I've tested are impossible to handle about position, size, and inclination.

Anyway, as I said before, thank you.

I've made a quick 2d animated planet proof of concept. Here is the live version:

http://estructor.altervista.org/animated_2d_planet_concept/

The current version does not seamlessly repeat either the cloud or the planet texture, so after a while the illusion is shattered <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";-)" title="Wink"> It should take relatively small effort to have those repeat.

The trick is very simple: mask out the cloud and planet textures with a circle using the blend effects. Please check the capx file how I achieved it. This effect is imperfect: it would be nice if we had access to a filter that would bulge the planet as a sphere. Perhaps someone here knows another trick to improve my simple version. It's pretty much one big fake.

I created all the effect maps in Photoline.

The planet resides on its own layer which I rotate and zoom out - but you could also use the pin behaviour to control the planet's position, for example.

You also need the Lite Tween behaviour installed for this example to work (although I could have applied the bullet behaviour as well).
