🎉UPDATE 2024-08-12: Added Country Meshes to the exaggerated version!
Blue Gem Earth is designed to help tell better stories about the world in geography-oriented games, YouTube videos and editorial presentations. Built with artistically crafted color maps that are draped over Nanite-powered terrain data, it’s designed with raytracing, to run in real-time. Blue Gem offers visually striking, vertically exaggerated (~11x) or realistic topography and bathymetry heights (2 different levels), adding depth and dynamism to the appearance of the land and ocean floors, as the shadows cast over the surfaces. Additionally, it harnesses Epic’s atmospheric lighting system, allowing dynamic lighting and shading adjustments based on the sun angle, turning the city lights on and off depending on the light visibility.
