Hy Bob! Do you remember 200mio years ago as the earth was lokking like my just finished 3DS/4 created "Pangea" globe? O.K. I'm kidding, but my meshes of the continents are finished after working strong days and nights (nearly 70 houres) from beginning final cound down at last wednesday. But the result is absolutly great. In the moment I'm starting rendering tests. Do you know how to use fog atmosphere layered on a sphere? Is it possible to realize a fog layer on a sphere with the Render/setup/atmosphere/fog? What is 3DS MAXX ? Best regards Anselm!

Anselm: I'm glad the world is working out your way. Atmospheric fog nor layered fog are going to get you that atmospheric fuzziness around your earth. You may want to just enclose your globe inside a semi-transparent larger globe which is mapped with a material of the proper color and transparency. 3DS MAX is the name of the next upgrade for 3D Studio. Its due this winter and will run on NT. – Bob Ritger

Hallo Bob, In the same way I realised a glow around my glob. I worked with a disk behind the glob. Thank's Anselm
