Very nice! It's kind of neat to see the maps of this world slowly change over time as our knowledge grows.

I've downloaded your zip files, but they don't uncompress ! I get an error message saying it was unable to uncompress the files ! :cry:

Sorry, I tried again, and I was unable to uncompress the texture.

I was able to uncompress the NormalMap, however.

John, the screenshots look great! But I seem to be having the same problem as Cham. 7-Zip appears to be an unconventional zip format that other zip programs don't recognize. Since the texture and normal map are compressed less than 1% anyway, could you please make the uncompressed .pngs available on your website and/or the motherlode?

Thanks,
Dave

Surprising enough,I could open this files with a new(!) copy of Winzip.I didn?t need 7zip.
John,are this textures mostly real?One thing I notice is that some areas are in lower resolution than others.Is this because of lack of data?
