How come in the past the clouds still don't move?

monmarfori · « **Reply #61 on:** July 24, 2009, 06:52:54 PM »

That is a glitch.

Naru523 · « **Reply #62 on:** July 24, 2009, 06:58:42 PM »

No, it's not a glitch.
They did it because they didn't knoe the past clouds. Or / And maybe it might cause lag.

monmarfori · « **Reply #63 on:** July 24, 2009, 07:09:28 PM »

Or a bug

My hurricane won't work. Can someone please tell me how to get storms?

hbmp88 · « **Reply #65 on:** July 25, 2009, 11:18:05 AM »

OK I got storm simulations running. If anybody is having problems just say something. This is Hurricane Katrina. Did anyone else get the simulations running?

How do you get it running?

hbmp88 · « **Reply #67 on:** July 25, 2009, 11:54:00 AM »

It depends if you want just pictures, or actual simulations. $:-\$ But I can do both!

simulations

hbmp88 · « **Reply #69 on:** July 25, 2009, 12:28:46 PM »

Go to SVS icon. It's orange and purple. Click on it. Select something and download it. As soon as it is done press play and try to find it playing somewhere on the globe.

Ok, thanks

Using World Winds I discovered a strange landmark in the middle of the Sahara. When I went back to take a smaller picture it was gone. So I was forced to edit the two I had so here they are. One is blue to help bring out the dimensions, because the original color wasn't very clear.

If the uploader is full. I will try to upload it another day, but I won't be on for a while.

atomic7732 · « **Reply #72 on:** July 25, 2009, 01:17:56 PM »

Why won't you be on for a while? Are you going on vaca? Oh, yeah, i think dan can fix the uploader full problem.

I'm just going to family. My mom and sister are out of town and my dad works all day. It for like five days.

The pictures I've taken are so cool I want to share them now!

atomic7732 · « **Reply #74 on:** July 25, 2009, 01:49:36 PM »

Dang.

monmarfori · « **Reply #75 on:** July 25, 2009, 03:57:57 PM »

Really. it did not work on my virtual pc. because the directx of that.

hbmp88 · « **Reply #76 on:** July 29, 2009, 10:36:16 PM »

OK here is one, since it takes forever to upload.

hbmp88 · « **Reply #77 on:** July 29, 2009, 10:38:38 PM »

Hopefully the blue will help you see the depth, wich makes it even more of a wonder.

atomic7732 · « **Reply #78 on:** July 29, 2009, 10:40:40 PM »

Where is this?

hbmp88 · « **Reply #79 on:** July 29, 2009, 10:42:36 PM »

Somewhere in the Sahara. I tried to find it again but I couldn't after like 30 minutes.

atomic7732 · « **Reply #80 on:** July 29, 2009, 10:48:02 PM »

How did you find it? By accidet?

hbmp88 · « **Reply #81 on:** July 29, 2009, 11:14:33 PM »

monmarfori · « **Reply #82 on:** July 29, 2009, 11:41:58 PM »

Sahara is a desert in North Africa. It is know to be the largest desert.

atomic7732 · « **Reply #83 on:** July 29, 2009, 11:52:33 PM »

I didn't ask what it was, I knew that btw.

hbmp88 · « **Reply #84 on:** July 30, 2009, 09:20:45 AM »

Just tell me what you think it is. It doesn't look like a crater, since it's not to deep. It's to big to be a salt mine(there are many of these in Africa). I noticed a small hill at the center. But realize this picture was taken from almost 100km up.

atomic7732 · « **Reply #85 on:** July 30, 2009, 12:12:35 PM »

It probably started out as dunes, and then wind eroded down into the bedrock, then, just make it deeper.

FGFG · « **Reply #86 on:** July 31, 2009, 02:22:35 AM »

Can you provide coordinates? We could find it on Google Earth too (if it is high resolution).

Why not a crater? Maybe not a great asteroid, but the shape is so circular.
Maybe could it be an ancient lake, or a volcano?

atomic7732 · « **Reply #87 on:** July 31, 2009, 11:26:10 AM »

Volcano 0.01 %
Crater 4.99%
Lake 5%
Dune cayon thing 90%

Naru523 · « **Reply #88 on:** August 01, 2009, 07:23:33 PM »

An island surrounded by water 1%

hbmp88 · « **Reply #89 on:** August 02, 2009, 10:07:02 PM »

Sorry the screenshot cut out the coordinates and most likely it will be easier to find on world winds(better with landmasses)
