Beta 5 version history:
1. Added - New StarGlow.bmp texture with solar flare effects, courtesy of Captain Kwok.
2. Added - New PlanetGlow.bmp texture for better atmospheric effects on planets, courtesy of Captain Kwok.
3. Added - Green stars. Texture coloring courtesy of Captain Kwok.
4. Changed - Reduced the size of atmosphere glow for large and huge planets.
5. Added - Large Ringed planets have a Tiny atmosphere glow. Huge Ringed planets have a Small atmosphere glow.
6. Note - The solar system named planets (eg: Mercury, Earth) do not have glows. They do not appear to be used in-game (no references exist in StellarObjectTypes.txt).
Please note that this is a work in progress. There are bound to be quirks, which you should report. All suggestions for improvement are welcome!
It seems that SE5 still indexes data by file position, rather than name. As such, this version will tend to break savegames created with beta 4.
