This is all in fgdata in Gitorious now - use <tt>--materials-file=materials-dds.xml</tt> and enjoy. A nVidia 8400 or its ATI equivalent should be sufficient to run these shaders with a recent driver. No update to source code is required. | This is all in fgdata in Gitorious now - use <tt>--materials-file=materials-dds.xml</tt> and enjoy.

=== New terrain textures === | |||
Some new terrain textures have been created, mostly based on USGS aerial imagery. The textures have a warmer, summer theme which fits better with some parts of the scenery. The material mappings are best used for Corine-enabled scenery, and the materials file works only for recent Git snapshots. However, the textures can be used with any materials file. All textures are GPLv2 so they can be freely distributed within the Flightgear repository. | |||
More info and screenshots in this forum [http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=14254 thread]. This is still work in progress, of course. | |||
