In today's builds, both 1.26.22.64 and 1.26.23.17, the sun and moon appear square. I didn't notice it with the sun right away, but I did when I was in a region at 'night' and saw a square moving across the sky. I didn't know what it was initially but upon inspecting closer, it had the texture of the moon. It is easier to see the behavior if clouds are not rendered (disabled in the Advanced->Rendering->Types menu).

Just a corrupted cached texture... Clear the cache and restart the viewer.

Yep, I just did that and was going to reply to my own thread. Sorry for the noise. I had just not seen that before.

Yet, it is abnormal that the cached texture(s) got corrupted (perhaps a multiple viewer instances issue, even though, in that case, the cache is made read-only to additional instances), especially since the viewer default textures include those textures that should therefore not need to be fetched from the grid (unless the latter got specific Moon/Sun textures, but AFAIK, none of the existing grids use that possibility) and consequently cached...

I modified the code for next releases so that, as long as the default textures are used (and I extended that to low altitude clouds and "bloom"), the viewer uses the bundled textures instead of trying to fetch them from the grid...

I appreciate you looking into it further and making improvements for using defaults. I hadn't actually realized those were, before your change, something fetched from the grid. I just assumed they were static resources all along.
