[Grind and Click]

Flawless enough.

I do seem to notice Outerra likes to stretch things out horizontally a bit, is that just a by product or are you refining that too?

I went up the crevice in the middle and over the ridge left to the top.

I love showing my friends this. Thanks cameni.

Hmm, there should not be any horizontal stretching. I'd say it's just something stemming from different terrain details there and how our brains process it. It's known that without the fine detail you have to stretch terrain vertically to get the feeling of mountain's height. Maybe it's something related, but of course there still might be an error somewhere.

No fair play, its probably just the textures combined with the trees and infact- the way the real picture is square format and your screen grab is rectangular and wider.

All good.

Everest?

View from the top too?

27.980202 N 86.921418 E (East right?)

Just let me know when this gets tedious, maybe it should be one request every few days

A direction?

A look at it from the east:


Mountainous areas would benefit from increased base resolution, to get the intermediate erosion patterns there.

[Grind and Click]

Thats a good direction, facing the big pointy thing. It still looks good, when do you think you'll incorporate increased base res?

[cameni]

I'm reworking our data processor right now in order to speed it up and fix some bugs there. Once it works I mean to test it also with 30m data where available for mountains.

Another possibility is to employ a special erosion pattern generator for the missing level of detail. Currently the fractal algo generates detail suitable for smaller terrain features, and it cannot be tuned well to generate the erosion patterns - these need a different approach.

[Jagerbomber]

Any chance you could get a picture from the bottom left of that picture in the lower area looking up the mountain?

[RaikoRaufoss]

That looks much better than the previous picture.  Good job.

Yes, that's what I was saying - when you are climbing the rocks look good from up close, but from a medium distance you'll notice the missing "small" erosion patterns, and it breaks the feeling a bit.

Can you please show what this valley in northern Idaho(USA) looks like?

48.664734811084514 N,  -116.31779730319977 W
At about 50m in the air.

1. Looking SE toward 2 large mountains
 Here is a picture looking down from the right one: http://v16.lscache7.c.bigcache.googleapis.com/static.panoramio.com/photos/original/37612979.jpg

2. Looking NW toward another mountain range.


Thanks!

That looks really awesome!  The climate seems to match about right for here...

Woo!  The first requested screens using the new mapper tool!
