New photoreal and new HD elevations for Spain

[bokepacha]

Hi all,

Grrr05 and Cestomano, from x-plane.es are working on an awesome new script for Spain. They are:

A) Using spanish official elevation data (we have 2 high quality elevation data sources)

B ) Converting our spanish photoreal scenery, which has its own mesh embebbed, and deleting the mesh so you can use it with any mesh of your choice.

It's still their work in progress but here I want to share some shots with you.

First of all, this is the lowest of the meshes (MDT25--->25m resolution) and shorelines need some work (you'll notice the dark water but this pictures are just a test, not final work).

I'll add some more pictures of the islands later. Hope you like their work, cause it's awesome.

180º pano from GCTS. Please notice the left side (all those little big volcanoes) and the right side (médano mountain). This is actually pretty close to the ral landscape

All the shadows you can see, are real, they're not in the photoreal pictures. I am uploading a video in HD to watch it better. I'm not a video expert (in fact it will be my third video uploaded xD) so, if you think it's crap it's because it is!

EDIT: Here's the video. Just click in HD.

Very impressive ... well, this is how photo scenery should look :-) Especially if the also manage to drop enough 3D clutter on it (like we can already see with the OSM city objects).

Thanks, Bokepacha.

Canarias Super HD available to download at X-Plane.es resources site.

An example of little trip to do: takeoff from El Berriel (GCLB), at Gran Canaria, and turn to North and look for a narrow gully. Climb within it until reach the center of the island... explore mountains and cliffs...
