Description

This DLC for SpaceEngine improves the texture resolution of Mars and its satellites, Phobos and Deimos.

This Mars HD DLC (addon) contains high-resolution maps of Mars and its satellites, Phobos and Deimos. It improves the level of detail of the Martian surface compared to the default SpaceEngine installation, and replaces the low-quality JPEG textures for Mars and its moons with high-quality PNG ones.
