I've been poking around my very old Blitz3D sources (back to 2005) and found a little demo showing a simple planet earth turning around with nice music I never released. Playing the last days with textures and source I created this useless little piece of eyecandy stress relief demo which I like to share with the community. Have fun and feel free to play around with the source which is included.

Interaction: SPACE stops/starts the demo and RETURN saves a screenshot. "S" shows/hides the "shader" and "C" the clouds.

Very pretty!

Yeah, nicely done.

Here is a version in BlitzMAX using minib3d and Muttleys INIFileHandler. Should look similar to the B3D Version and is enhanced by a small INI-File where you can set a different screen resolution and music track.

Download the complete ZIP with source, media and executable (13MB)

(not sure if this still fits in "Graphics Showcase", so move it to the "Blitz Showcase" if necessary...)

Thanks guys. It's a nice demo of what Blitz3D is still capable of (and a demonstration for minib3d, too :-)
