Hey there, would anyone be able to give me an idea of how I'd go about adding my own island to Earth?

I don't mind modifying a little island that already exists on my map by Jestr, I just need to know how I go about doing it down to a really close level.

Thanks.

The best way to know is to start with the documentations written by Bob Hegwood and Selden about VT (Virtual textures)
They are at this address

You can also read the stickies posts of the "Textures" topic on this forum.
And at last you can download a "little" close-up texture at this address

ie: "Various Islands" created by Jens or "Bora-Bora" created by myself
So, you can examine how the textures are.
