Thank you! Looks spectacular. Even with the data above 60° N, the are still looking really nice.

I love the last one, it defiantly is the most detailed engine.

I don't think you've got quite the right place. It should not be in France but just of the west end of the Isle of Whight, UK. It may be my coordinates but i'm not sure. i think it should be west rather than east.

If you want decimal coordinates then

50.660556
-1.591300

only about 300 feet above sea level and looking roughly NE.

Many Thanks for what is clearly an amazing engine

Ah, sorry. Old parser didn't recognize ′ and ″ symbols. That's why it's a good idea to post also the name of the location



Definitely needs a better resolution dataset. Moreover, there's a problem with mixed 1km and 90m data - those plains come from 1km data, when actually there should be sea. It is an error within the data mapping tool that will be fixed in its second generation.

Hope I got that right.

Houston?

Yup, sure looks...interesting.

Hi Cameni, I love your engine Outerra, hope you'll be able to complete it and sell it to some big company $$$

 I'd like to see a hill in my city (Cagliari, Sardinia island, Italy) called "Sella del Diavolo", it means Saddle of the Devil, for its particular shape.

Coordinates:
39.195488

9.163878

Looking South, at sea level (like the first image i posted) should be ok!

This is a photo to help you find it:

from google maps:

I Don't know if your map resolution is sufficient to show that weird shape on the hill.

Hi, guys!!

The outerra screenshots are stunning and they're a lot better than screenshots from the old flight simulation software what I've used to see back in 1980's and 1990's!! I'm not to sure about the Outerra Demo, where can I download the Outerra Demo? I would like to try it out!Thanks!

               Cheers,

I'd hope it looked better than software from the 80's.. Also there is no public demo yet. The thread title can be deceiving but you can get a shot of anyplace in the world as a demonstration of the detail.

A brief moment with a stabilized build, so I can fulfill the request



The resolution is not enough there, although the overall shape is right. However, for steep rocky slopes we would need a better resolution. Additionally, 1km data layer is interfering with the shapes of the shore there a bit, that should be fixed with new data processing.

Oh my word that sea is gorgeous

Thanks Cameni! Yeah, i knew that your current database of maps wasn't enough for such a little detail, but i don't care eheh, even without the devil saddle and boats, that' definitely the beach of my city

Do you know what are and what's the resolution of the most detailed maps available today?  Are they hard to obtain or you didn't use them just because they're not so great compared with the actual maps?

Our data were derived from 3'' elevation data (~90m at equator), resampled to around 76m in the specific projection we are using. There exist also 1'' public data (~30m at equator) for whole US and mountainous areas in the rest of the world that we are planning to use ultimately.

There is also the ASTER dataset that claims to be 1'' for the whole world, but the actual resolution is worse than 3'' and it's full of artifacts that render it unusable.

We would like also to enable use of custom data, once the resampler tool is updated, so that people could provide local enhancements.

cameni, would you be so kind and make a few screenies from 46.357008N and 14.179831E. One facing north and the other west/northwest.

Thanks!

[Airhogg]

Hi Cameni!  I also have coordinates if you have time....

35.05'09.55"N
85.20'57.49"W
500 meters
facing 165 degrees.

Thanks!

Hi, guys!!

Very nice graphics!! Keep up the excellent work!! I can't wait to try out the Outerra!!

For the record, here's how ATI cards currently render the same location
