  • Mars for 1.3.x

    Since the 1.3 version of World Wind was released people have been asking for a new Mars add-on, unfortunately the format for elevation changed between 1.2 and 1.3 and the data was never reprocessed, also the server which held the high resolution imagery moved to a new host and this data was lost.

    This add-on is a repack of Nowak's original add-on which I have altered so it does not try to access online data, and cleaned up the directory structure. The add-on will install a shortcut to your desktop which will automatically load World Wind with Mars as the default planet.

    Thanks to Nowak of World Wind Central for the original add-on, and Withak for reminding me how cool it was.

        There's not high res pictures at the moment, they were lost. They should be re-done soon though.

          What once was lost...

          I have all of these files if you want them.

          I just installed "Worldwind_1.3_Mars_(offline)_1.0" and added "Download Mars256 Tiled (113.7 ppd)" to the included "MGSTextures" as levels 2 and 3. I added "Download Mars256 Tiled (256.0 ppd)" as a separate TileSet since it has a 2 deg. tile size, instead of the 36/18/9/4.5 deg. progression used with the main TileSet.

          Right now I'm looking at Olympus Mons (worldwind://goto/world=Mars&lat=18.4&lon=-133.5&alt=200000) and it appears identical to tile 0054_0023.dds in the 256 ppd data.

          These are all *.dds files.

          Download Mars256 Tiled (113.7 ppd): 800 files (Level 0) + 3200 files (Level 1), 500 MB total
          Download Mars256 Tiled (256.0 ppd): 16,200 files, 1.97 GB total

          I also have the terrain tiles (*.tif), but I don't understand how to convert & incorporate them.

                the .tif files would need to be converted to .bil, f0urtyfive or Nowak may be able to help.

                  No link of my own, should I upload them to twobeds? My upload speed is pretty slow, so it will probably take a day or so. I'd like to upload it once to somewhere it will be available to all of you.

                      It is on the way.

                      Location: Mars Tiles

                      This will take a while, so be patient. The directories and number of files are listed above.

                        Maybe a dumb question,
                        how is it possible to download more than 1 file at once from twobeds.com ??

                          Pangloss - is the uploading complete? If so, I'll zip up the files to make them easier to download.

                              ~ 300 MB to go, should be done in a couple of hours. Last file is \Download Mars256 Tiled (256.0 ppd)\0\0089_0179.dds.

                              Your server keeps dumping me and nothing happens until I come back and see that nothing is happening <_< .

                              I&#39;ll start the terrain files (*.tif) after that.
