Note 1:
Custom textures can be stored in /Android/data/com.aeroshark333.artofearthify/files/data/ArtOfEarthify/ under the name 'textureX.png' where X is a number from 0 to 4 (.jpg .gif .bmp and .webp (if your device supports .webp) are supported as well).
Note 2:
You can also use custom models for the Earth, Moon, Sun and background
Place your model files in /Android/data/com.aeroshark333.artofearthify/files/data/ArtOfEarthify/ and rename the models to earth.3ds moon.3ds sun.3ds background.3ds (various other models extensions are also support)
Note 3:
You can create and use your own custom shaders. Name them (for example) earth_fragment.txt and place them in /Android/data/com.aeroshark333.artofearthify/files/data/ArtOfEarthify/.
I made this live wallpaper application extremely customizable in the hope that users (who will be using this live wallpaper) can create the Earth Live Wallpaper to their own perspectives of how they want it to look like! Enjoy my creation! ^.^
[Q1] Why does the application need the Microphone permission?
[A1] So the Live Wallpaper can internally use the audio/music playback data for visualisation purposes (visualizer). The microphone is not used, however.
[Q2] What will change when I purchase a premium license?
[A2] All settings with a '[PRO]' tag will be unlocked. You are already allowed to try '[PRO]' settings, but these will not be applied when using the Live Wallpaper on the lock/homescreen
[Q3] Does the Live Wallpaper drain a lot of battery?
[A3] It depends the usage. The more the Live Wallpaper is on the foreground, the more battery it will consume. In most cases, Live Wallpapers use more battery than static wallpapers.
