Like in the dawn screenshot where I tried to show that off; http://www.adeptopensource.co.uk/personal/fg/747-Heathrow-dawn_moon.jpg > In fact our model still has a lot of potential left. > I wouldn't want to trade it for another approach. I don't know anything about the theory of it all, but I do know that the sky in FG looks truly amazing at dawn and dusk in particular (colours, moon phases, star positions etc) - and I think we are _really_ underselling FG by not having a few screenshots illustrating that on the website. I'm sure others can come up with much nicer ones than I have... they're all going to offend the "darkness police" whatever :-) Cheers, AJ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
