Title: Mars animation
Post by: inkonyto on February 06, 2007, 07:27:37 PM
does someone know how they did animation of mars ? (you know : That one ! (http://planetside.co.uk/terragen/tg2/tgd_mars_movie.html))

Is it a total procedural planet ? An image map ? Or a mix ?

Free pizza! It's funny how often pizza appears on these forums. Perhaps I could create a plugin which lets you order it...
