Hi there,

here is an animation I just created. Enjoy.

Nice way to show off an interesting landscape. A few weird shadow flickers, but otherwise good.

Nice, I think the take off especially looks excellent!

You should be able to address the shadow issues with the Ray Detail Region in the Advanced tab of the Renderer node. This thread discusses the setting and links to more info: http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=10467.0

I would suggest trying 0.25 at first. Try .5 and then 1 if that does not fix it.

Thanks a lot for the information!

I really love the mood on this. The music and the camera move. Just to point out you've just been slapped with gimble lock around 00:16 where the camera gets confused with it's axis, hence the blip in it's movement.

I'd like to see this with more frames. The pace with time stretching is right, but the stepping is obvious. You might also want to break up your global texture with continent/mountain range/plains differences when you get into high orbit. The texture becomes obviously repetitive. You could actually dwell on your start frame for longer.

Part of me want's to see warp speed when the beat kicks in, to a neighboring moon maybe.
