An interactive demo allowing you to move and spin a 3D LOD texture of the Earth.

Author(s): Paul Hansen

Quick Start:

T Key Toggles between textured and shaded mode



Other Information:
This demonstration program shows how large textures can be handled on Impact and OCTANE systems.

The program uses 7.5 MB of satellite image data to realistically render the earth globe and let the user manipulate the globe in realtime. The image data is divided into 24 tiles (i.e. textures) which are seamed together with border data. Press the t key to switch to solid color textures that show how the tiling is done.



System Requirements:
An OCTANE /SSI or /MXI and 4MB TMEZ
