yarg - i'm doing the same thing over on my project. its very cool looking, but somewhat pointless until you populate the planet with bases and all the goodies. anyways 'we' (loosely used) have two of these planets implemented, one is just a new skysphere w/ the same ground model. what would make it really worthwhile to pursue is good SUR collisions, however the exporter generate files are not up to it (yet...?)
JUST THOUGHT OF SOMETHING AMAZING. Destructable SURs for the landscape. Blast chunks out of mountains, blow up trees, ect. That would be incredible. do destructible SURs work on something like that? if not, you could always make it a base and then have hardpoints for mountains and AA turrets. That is awesome. And missile silos... It would take forever... but it could do a lot. Especially if you made it a modders resource so anyone could do it. That would be an amazing project.
how about the model is made up of smaller pieces then positioned correctly, that also has the added benefit of making surs easier to work out

my cloaking idea was to make cloaked ships look like they've got the active camouflage from halo. not invisible, but still hard to see. (though thinking about it it wouldn't work so well in space.) not that i'm advocating making cloaking mods. there are just sometimes when you want to beat nomads at their own game. (twitch)

I'd probably keep the death zone damage to a minimum if I wanted to survive "touching down" on a surface. lol
I use to think the buildings in the cut scenes had sur files. But, I'm thinking that would be a whole different matter if they didn't. Like you said, they would have to have sur files to give them substance.
