PLEASE

PLEASE I NEED THE TEXTURES!!!!

Well I made several sizes of an Earth texture. If you would do a search through the forum you would find the link for the download. But since you are in shuch desperate need I will post the adress to my 4k Earth texture pack.

I hope this is what you are looking for. There are muliple vertions of the texture. I always plug the specmap into the main texture so you can either use it that way or by pluging it into the .ssc file.
Good luck.
Don.

thank you very much, i have already downloaded them, but doesn't matter.
what i rally need is a 4k dds bumpam, than you didnt put in your zip file.
can you explain me how to make dds textures?? i read some posts about this, but i dont understand.

and about the bumpmaping, thanks for the help. but i have a question:
who made all the bumpmaps on the net?? you said that is not simply, so?

ElPelado...get a grip. Everyting you require is here on this forum...just be patient and do a search.

Blimey!

I have only made one dds bumpmap for earth and I didn't quite like the way it turned out. The instruction for making one are here in the forum so I sugest you search them up and give a try at making your own. I only give freebe help once per forum thread.

As for the other bumpmaps. As I said the ones for Earth Mars and other planets in our system are generated from elevation data not from the texture itself. As I stated you can make your own for other planets by either making a grayscale image of your texture or by opening it up in a image editor like photoshop or GIMP and useing the decompose funtion and breaking th image down into its R G B values. Then you can save each color value as a seperate image and try each one to see which one works best for you. But to get a real bumpmap you have to have the elevation data and have a way to generate it into a visible image. I and I don't think anyone in the forum can help you with that one.
