The day and night map file?. I know maya converts all textures to a map file for rendering. Is this what u meant? Or were u meaning to change the blend modes in the render layers for the day and night maps. Also I was wondering do we plug the ramp for the earth shader into the color channel and plug the earth textures into the ramp?

It gives very good professional idea how to construct the globe. To make this tutorial really more understandable it would be good to explain many details. <br />I stuck on point 4 - where is the facing angle?<br />point 5. Day map - night map - where are they?<br />point 8 - place a new file - where? - obviously in the hypershader - then plug the specular map into the color - how to plug it - and plug the specular_life.outcolor? to the earth_shader.specularoutcolor - this already becomes Chinese text.<br />Please introduce more details in this part of the tutorial so that we could continue next to enjoy your work. Otherwise like many other tutorials we start and through it in the middle as it become unmanageable. <br />My best wishes<br />adanchev@yahoo.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12804158145265684366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1169512480983559328.post-21427322136512667902010-09-02T04:53:50.125-07:002010-09-02T04:53:50.125-07:00contact: jegorovicb@gmail.comcontact: jegorovicb@gmail.comUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00583813107081687312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1169512480983559328.post-22244400829770758752010-09-02T04:05:34.543-07:002010-09-02T04:05:34.543-07:00Hi!
