Planet Creator V2 is a fully redesigned, modern
system for creating photorealistic planets, moons, and stars
in Blender 5.0 and above.
The entire add-on has been rewritten
from scratch to take full advantage of the newest Blender features —
especially native displacement, improved
volumetrics, and updated shader systems.
With Planet Creator V2 you can quickly create everything from simple rocky planets to complex worlds: ocean planets, gas giants, volcanic and cratered surfaces, destroyed planets, city-covered megastructures, island worlds, moons, and even stars. The system also allows you to generate planetary rings and fully customizable surface & atmosphere layers.

Key Features
✔ Fully compatible with Blender 5.0+
Every part of the system has been rebuilt to work natively with Blender 5.0 and its latest tools.
✔ True native displacement
Planet Creator V2 uses Blender’s new displacement system, giving your planets real physical geometry, allowing you to create:
-
mountains and ridges,
-
craters,
-
canyons,
-
valleys,
-
natural irregular terrain structures.
This is not a bump trick — it’s actual geometry that reacts realistically to light, shadows, and camera movement.
✔ Modern 3D clouds
Clouds are built using Blender 5.0’s improved volumetrics and
support displacement, resulting in natural depth and structure.
By
default, clouds look like real Earth atmosphere clouds, but you can
enable Volumes → Biased to significantly
speed up render times.
✔ Realistic atmosphere system
The atmosphere is based on Earth’s physical model, but can be customized to match any type of planet:
-
water worlds,
-
fiery or volcanic planets,
-
gas planets,
-
icy worlds,
-
destroyed or post-apocalyptic planets,
-
city worlds,
-
moons and sci-fi environments.
✔ Planetary rings
Create realistic planetary rings with full control over density, transparency, color, and structure.
BASIC MODELS – your main
planet-building foundation
The pack includes three core base models:
-
Rock Planet
-
Gas Planet
-
Star
These BASIC MODELS offer the most options and are
recommended as the primary starting point for creating any
type of planet.
Additional example planets are also included and
fully editable, but BASIC MODELS provide the greatest
flexibility.
Easy to use, yet fully customizable
-
All essential parameters are accessible directly inside the Shader Editor, organized cleanly and logically.
-
Sliders are intuitive, precise, and designed so you cannot accidentally break the planet setup.
-
Advanced users can dive deeper into the node tree and customize every part of the system.
Virtually unlimited resolution and quality with Nodes.
Possibility to animate all parameters.
Everything is fully compatible with the Asset Browser, so you can drag a planet into your scene and start customizing immediately.

Limitations
-
Planet Creator V2 works exclusively with Cycles.
-
Higher displacement detail requires more system performance.
-
Clouds may extend render times; enabling Volumes → Biased is recommended when speed is the priority.
Perfect for:
-
3D artists,
-
cinematic creators,
-
sci-fi and concept designers,
-
VFX artists,
-
game developers,
-
educators and space-visualization enthusiasts.
