200 million years (+dds now!)

Post #1by maxim » 17.11.2003, 14:29

Some work, but it's done now!

The world in motion over the past 200 million years. Hope you like it.
It's working just smooth on my Computer. How looks it like on yours?
Is it too slow/fast? Feedback wanted.

maxim.

Oh.... nearly forgot: http://www.nefkom.net/z-bau/celestia -> Continental Drift.
Have fun :D

Maxim,

Unfortunately, you used RAR to create the archive. Most people don't have that utility. It'd be best if you used ZIP to package your files. Zip and unZip utilities are included with Windows XP and are available as freeware for other operating systems. See http://www.info-zip.org/

There's a dds-version available now.
It runs even smoother, so I added a script with double speed.

Have fun. :D

Cheers for making this available in DDS format Maxim. It has really speeded it up. This is a great way to show the effects of continental drift, and I for one never knew that India was a separate continent before eventually crashing into Asia.

Great work!
