Textures to the Max!

This is a 1:1 map of Mt. Elbrus, the tallest mountain in Europe, and the surrounding terrain. It is my first mod to use the brand new GIS Block IV workflow. This produces even better textures than Block III (Everest, Rainier, and Wake). You can check out the texture overview on the images page, which yields this mountain a texture size of 12,960 x 10,912 pixels! You can climb the mountain, explore, or take scenic photos.

• There is an aerial start on top of a village
• There is an aerial start within a valley
• There are two misc. aerial starts around the mountain

Notes

• Big textures will provide you the best looks in either the valleys or the cliff face of the mountain
• There seems to be a lot of satellite image variation on the fringes of the map
• GIS Block IV is a pain but it allows for less tiling. Blender crashed 8 times, some times taking my work with it, and one crash even corrupted the entire application, which meant I had to re-install the entire thing. Worst of all, my GIS plugin is now glitched and not enabled on startup (very annoying)
• As with all the GIS mods, ground start is fundamentally broken. All the starts you make on the ground will be based on your cockpit height, so keep that in mine
• It is built of only 3 Hyper-Detail pieces and 1 Detailed outside piece
• Very unfortunately, there is no "big background" tile. I may add one because this mod looks great but when you see the edge of the map, a lot is ruined...
• The textures I exported were actually 17K, but due to obvious reasons unity scaled them max to 8192 (8K or UHD). I could have saved a lot of time if I wasn't dumb to make 17K textures.........
• Everest and Rainier (Block III maps) have slightly better terrain but worse textures
• Re-Entry Effects is used in some of the pictures, go check it out!
• Source code available on Discord Request, as well as any map/GIS help
