Hi(gh)!

My first multi-tile Georgia scene: the foreground tile, n41e044, in full 
3601 by 3601 resolution, the background tile, n42e044 at 1000 by 1000 
elevation samples. I also tried it with both tiles in full resolution, 
but despite of having removed the unnecessary copy of the mesh2 objects 
into two standardized variables ("Earth_Slice" and "Earth_Slice2"), 
POV-Ray crashed due to lack of RAM.

Today (after some sleep) I will probe how close I can get to the border 
of the low-res relief tile without noticing a difference to full 
resolution...

See you in Khyberspace!

Yadgar
