What's Level 11 +14 Earth like?

[Spacethingy]

I'm on a verrrrrrry sloooooow internet connection - and 300MB of level 11+14 textures looks dauntingly big! :uhh:

Is it worth it? A few screenshots would be nice, I can't find any anywhere.

Thanks for your help.

There are probably some more on the Orbiter Screenshot Thread, but there is for example from those textures:

• Level 14 Florida shown in this post (day and night textures)
• Level 11 parts of Europe shown in this post (compared to level 0 surftiles)

It's beautiful, full of pink unicorns and fairies. :lol:

Yeah, well, the old Orulex wanted orange rocks and green trees... :lol:

...or was that a euphemism for bugs C3PO?

 

[C3PO]

Nah. It just looks good. :thumbup:

Wowwwwwwwwwww!

That's nice indeed. My home town is no longer a smudgy blob on the coast!

Clouds are much better too.

Wow, this is good!

This higher res texture makes all bases without custom surface tiles look brilliant.

E.g. Habana suddenly looks like it's by the sea, approaches now look much better with variation in the ground colour (i.e. not just green!)

Worth waiting for!
