version 0.6

Hi everyone,

I am sharing with you my very first Unreal project on FAB. Please bear in mind that this is an early release and more updates will come as time goes by.

First of all, I want to give credit to NASA Earth Observatory and NASA for all the textures which I have downloaded and edited.

Description is not final and will be updated when more features are added to the project.

About the project :

Earth, Moon and Clouds are using UDIMs tiles. There are 50 UDIMS for each.

Each textures have a resolution of 1024x1024.

Total resolution for the 10x5 UDIM tiles is 10240x5120

There are differents masters material for each and all have material instances with different parameters to tweak.

Here is a link to showcase what you can achieve with the project as of version v0.2 : Cinematic Presentation Video

Also, following the link above, you will be able to find the project with higher resolution textures. It is in the description of the video.
