Well, I’ve been testing some terrain implementations: SOARX, Clipmapping but the winner by far is the chunked lod algorithm. http://tulrich.com/geekstuff/chunklod.html…
My own planet (II)
New improvements has been added to my 3d planet (that suspiciously, looks-like to our earth :p). * Added cloud layer. It completes one full round each 30 minutes. * Data (frontier, coast lines, etc) near blending when the camera is near to the planet. * Stars texture map for not…
