High-resolution globe and map

 

If you have a fast graphic card with a 3D accelerator, and have installed DirectX , and if you have enough memory (256Mb or more) you may want to try out the detailled and photo-realistic globe settings. The images are taken from real satellite photographs. Rightclick the globe and select Toggle GlobeView (DirectX).

 

 

High detailed maps

If you are the lucky owner of the Fritz Powerbook, you will have the disposal of the high detailed maps, lakes and inhabited areas. In order to use them, the files with the extension .cbw need to be stored in the same location as the program. The files are located in the folder HighDetailedGlobe.
