Nice to see an attempt to make a new map with a cylindrical projection, if that is useful for such an elongated comet nucleus. How are the coordinates defined? Perhaps with some additional effort it would look more presentable.

Perhaps with some additional effort it would look more presentable. the orientation and offset matches the orientation of the model below, so if you texture the model in blender using UV maps, the data should be placed in the correct spots on the model (unless you uv mapped the thing wrong) and i reprojected the images using the shape model (did a modification to the model to better fit the vega part of the map, model was a bit off) pics of the fixed mesh download .STL below halley.zip ( 1.22MB ) Number of downloads: 114 |
