I think he's requesting screens of those particular coordinates?

Until Angrypig and Cameni set a date for the demo, I'd much rather see screens than bite my nails waiting for the demo :)  Although I'll continue doing that.  Four fingers on each hand already are nail-free.  Working on the final two now. :lol:

I guess next will be my toe nails, but somehow that just doesn't seem "civilized."

I know he wants the screens, I'm not getting just the last sentence :)
Guessing "prob" means probably and not a problem, but still .. somehow that sentence doesn't fit logically.

And the directions and altitude would be handy. We would need an automatic panorama creator there.

Well then, get to work!!! :D

j/k ... although it WOULD be interesting to see some interesting panoramic shots.  Hmm, this actually gets me to thinking about creating a sort of skybox shot of a scene in Outerra.  Something possibly using VRML that would allow a user to experience Outerra in a semi-limited way, but still give the "scale" of the project.  Videos are great, and have done a good job so far ... just wondering what something like that would add to the experience until the demo comes out.

Massive High Res PNG's panoramics work for me. 8000x1200@20° V-Fov. Then all I need is a program to slowly scroll (5pxl per sec) as my background in an infinite bounce.

We already had panorama functionality, the ancient banner that's still on at outerra.blogspot.com has been done with it. It didn't survive one of Angripig's updates though.

Facing south please.

56.521733 N
4.264941 W

Facing west. Not sure on altitude.





Just those pics with the new mapper is all i mean.

I said "To be honest its prob just worth waiting on the demo now right?" as in if the demo is meant to be this summer i/we should stop bugging you for screenshots and just let you finish it instead. Prob is just slang for probably.

Ahh .. sorry I didn't connect it with the previous request, I'm purging my cache quickly. Now I remember - you were always polite and apologizing for bothering, in that context the sentence gives more sense, though the syntax still troubles me :)
But no problem, making the screens is fast when people provide all the needed info.

The screens - not many differences. Resolution didn't change so there are only minor things.

Hi Brano,

may we look at Vihorlat (volcano/volcano mountains) in the eastern Slovakia ?
It's peak shall be:
48.891117, 22.113317
+48° 53' 28.02", +22° 6' 47.94"

May we look from south/ south east (I don't remember where I took that photo exactly ... but it was from the trip to the "morske oko") ? something like:
48.823593,22.125778 (south) or 48.864771,22.19573 (south east)





Also ... how are you going to deal with mountain lakes (This is "Morske oko" ... from it's north-west on the way to the "Sninsky kamen") ?

The second one is from a valley and Vihorlat is not visible from there. The first one:

Same as with the "normal" lakes, I guess .. lakes will be defined as polygons with water shader running on them. I think mountain lakes are easier in some regards, as they are in deeper valleys already and the terrain doesn't have to be corrected as much. Steppe lakes will be tougher - shallow, weakly defined boundaries ..
Here's how the terrain around Morske oko looks like now:

There you go ... from "Sninsky kamen" (with small zoom in ... right end is at about 3/4 of your picture):


Thanks a lot !
The shapes are more accurate than I did expect ... ;-)

Keep up the good work guys !
(btw. checking your progress almost daily ... for couple of months already ... ;-) ... never gets boring ... ;-) )

Hi Cameni.

Back from "observer" after I noticed that you have new terrain parser. If you find the time, few shots from this location:
46.365244N, 14.114342E

What I am after here is Triglav, the highest mountain in my country :) On the previous request it did not show, but perhaps the coordinates were too far away, so this time, closer :) Directions: well, NE and N will do, I guess.

Below picture is from coordinates 46.166832N,14.132881E)


Thanks.

Hi there!

Could you be so kind to try this view?

38.043102 N, -3.501106W. Try a few decens of meters above ground, I'm curious about a view heading towards east-northeast and another towards west-northwest view. Thanks a lot!!
