MoonTex Studio

MoonTex Studio is a visual companion to the MoonTex Python library that allows you to design, preview, and export procedural moon textures without writing code.

It provides a real-time interface for creating realistic and fantastical moon phases, adjusting surface detail, lighting geometry, color tinting, and exporting single phases or complete lunar cycles for use in games and simulations.

MoonTex Studio is built directly on top of the free MoonTex library and is designed to speed up iteration, reduce trial-and-error, and make moon generation workflows visual instead of code-only.

Features include:

• Live preview of procedural moon textures
• Per-phase editing and customization
• Support for realistic and fantasy moons (blood moons, elemental variants, etc.)
• Manual control over crescent, quarter, and gibbous geometry
• Export single moon phases or full lunar cycles as PNGs
• Native Windows executable

MoonTex Studio is ideal for developers working on RPGs, sandbox games, simulations, or procedural worlds who want fine-grained control over lunar visuals with minimal setup.
