Nitpicking, but above should be:
texture_map {
[0.00 pigment{rgb 1 transmit 1} finish{diffuse 1}]
[1.00 pigment{rgb 1 transmit 0} finish{diffuse 1}]
}
This discussion reminded me suddenly of a scene I made in 2011 (Port of
Call). I had the clouds not exactly right back then because I failed to
use a pigment_pattern.
I'll post a new version in p.b.i once the scene has finished rendering.

I was going to mention that on my next post.
Interestingly, Bishop3D parsed it correctly.

Be careful. Once you start looking at old scenes. You will find
something else that wants improving. Never ending.
I noticed that some of my earth maps go back to 98 (when I downloaded
them) and the ones I normally use are from 2008. So I downloaded some of
the Blue Marble ones. Now the Nautilus model does not fit in with the
Earth . I will need to rework its textures.

Not for me. I don't even bother.
See a temptation and pick it up.
And all day you'll have something to do.
And I have a new PC which goes Varoom!

Thanks, I posted an update in p.b.i in Thomas's thread.

Yes that is better.

What do you know, it makes quite an improvement. The Greek Isles look
very attractive at this time of year.
