hi everyone,

It's my first time on this forum so I hope I'm posting this question on the right sub-forum.

If I need to move it just let me know, and thanks to everyone in advance for the help!

Now, this is my problem.

I'm trying to modify the texture of a planet from a videogame called Kerbal Space Program

the texture is this one

and the 3D planet looks like this

what I want to do is modify the texture such as when it's loaded into the game the planet will look tilted 90°

so basically I have to put the current north pole and south pole at the equatorial level (the middle of the image)

I've tried different ways to do it with gimp, but the resulting image has always some distortion.

Do anyone know a way to do this?

thanks again for your help, if you need any more info just let me know.
