Can use arbitrary resolution of elevation data, refining it to centimetres using fractal algorithms. The detail is amazing, and it's still just a tech demo.

Dart Contributing Editor Just upgraded from intern Veteran Registered: 09/02/01 Posts: 16536 Loc: Alabaster, AL USA	Good see another graduate of the Dart School of Landing has made his mark! Lots of questions: 1) Are they planning on making the trees solid, or keeping them as fancy sprites? 2) How are cities and towns done? _________________________ The opinions of this poster are largely based on facts and portray a possible version of the actual events.

The trees as sprites is no big deal to me either as once you are in the air and flying at altitude you would not be able to tell the difference anyway.And when on the ground if well done you won't be able to tell much difference either.
