Meshed Globes and Maps (Pack 2.1)

Description

After the first wireframed globe was released in Blendswap.com [here](http://www.blendswap.com/blends/view/71010), I got a lot of feedbacks from community, many of which are nice suggestions. So I took some time to rebuild the project, Now let's see what's new in Globe Project Pack 2.1:

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmbRggmBEGA](http://youtu.be/mmbRggmBEGA)

Improvements:

- Redraw from scratch based on equirectangular projection. Now it is much more accurate. (the former one was made from a free SVG map, which was not quite suitable)

- More islands. And finally comes Antarctica!

- 9 basic globe styles, more can be generated by tweaking modifiers.

- Cycles shaders included, Ready to use.

- Plane-to-globe mesh template included, allowing customized maps of your own.

- Caspian Sea was missing in v2.0, now fixed in v2.1 (Thx FalgorOne).

Details:

s1 - Political (with boundaries), Wireframes off.

s2 - Physical (no boundaries).

s3 - Pixelized, Wireframe on.

s4 - Dot Matrix emission, single face, customizable unit.

s5 - Dot Matrix emission, double faces, customizable unit.

s6 - Diamond Matrix emission, plain globe, customizable unit.

s7 - Volume emission, single mesh.

s8 - Optional Wireframe on oceans/continents, single mesh.

s9 - Continents extruded, single mesh.

Scene layer 2 to 7: Equirectangular projection maps of different styles.

Scene layer 8: Customizable template base.

The globes are really amazing. I've been trying to learn how to do a dot matrix effect for a robotic face. Maybe this will help me learn that technique.

Thank you for developing this project. I was one of the commenters on the original model. This would have taken you many hours to do. It is truly superior.
