This real-scale, Photoreal Earth was made in Lightwave 9.0, and can't be used previous versions. It's light-sensitive, and the light-transition effects will move with the direction of the light. Areas that don't have Light will have a 'night-time' map applied, allowing you to see the city lights.

A very nice, accurate and easy to use 3D model. Clouds, atmosphere and surface are in separate layers and easy to manipulate.The transition from day to night is very realistic and the images you see here are accurate. To fully utilize this model you must be familiar with surface editor nodes in LW9. Animating clouds, (the layer included in the mode is a static image), is just a matter of replacing the cloud image with an image sequence or an animation.
