This PLANET.DAT file replaces the default TG version that came with XWA. This DAT file still contains many TG backdrop images, but several of them have been replaced with real planet, asteroid, and nebula images from NASA. Installation is easy; simply follow the instructions from the Readme.txt file. This download also includes a key showing which TG backdrops were replaced, and what they were replaced with.
