I'm new here, and all I can say to you that it's amazing. I'm sure I'll like Celestia.

[John Van Vliet]

[OAStubby]

Please, can reupload them and repost the new g-drive links?

[EarthMoon]

The download URLs are broken. Google says "Page not found."

[John Van Vliet]

and here is a link to the 64k 16bit unsigned integer DEM
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R-qPP39KbuNq05eOGMWqUWzBUMKYbcYt/view?usp=sharing

I downloaded them, I opened one .zip file and there's just a heavy (GigaByte) .v file in it.
I googled for "How to open .v files", but I can't find a helpful way

[OAStubby]

Use libvips www.libvips.org.

[EarthMoon]

I tried, but it always spams errors in the output (I'm trying to run the PY version):

Cmd.exe: pip install pyvips

I also can't find a converter that can handle huge GigaByte files (for free)

But I found a better map (that doesn't have the ugly .v format): https://astrogeology.usgs.gov/search/map/Moon/LRO ... AC_Mosaic_global_100m_June2013

Download windows binary https://github.com/libvips/build-win64-mxe/releases/download/v8.13.2/vips-dev-w64-all-8.13.2.zip

Copy the file filename.v on the bin folder.

Open prompt and goto to bin folder.

Execute command vips pngsave filename.v filename.png
