New (?) ressources for Celestia

Post #1by Cham » 11.08.2008, 01:11

I just found an interesting web site with tons of ressources, mostly textures in high resolution :

http://sos.noaa.gov/gallery/

You'll have to access some FTP servers to download the textures. Have fun ! :wink:

Two interesting movies that I'd love to see live in Celestia :

Those ones could be done with Toti's technique of animated textures...
