00:03 < adamhill_work> my client wants to look at things that exist below the surface, i would do this via 1) load in a .X file and place it 'in' the earth, then allow the user to turn off the crust or turn it off when the camera goes below the surface and 2) have layers of data that exist at negative altitudes and may be at angles not perpendicular to a line going through the center of the earth (think slices of volumetric data)
00:10 < dpatton> adamhill_work: so the Earth is someone's head, with an axe embedded in it, and you want to be able to represent not only the surface of the head, but the wound created by the axe?
00:12 < adamhill_work> i dont need the earth to be a melon and be able to cut a slice out of it, just to stick objects into it and to see polygonal 'sheets' of textures inside the Earth
00:12 < adamhill_work> both of those are severely limited by the precision issues once you are zoomed way in

00:30 < mashi> very interesting adamhill_work!  Chris has promised (among a lot of other things) to fix the precision issues for 1.5?
00:48 < adamhill_work> he has to, they need mm for the Moon and thats who is paying the bills now :)
00:51 < TheBean> Hehe
00:52 < adamhill_work> i'd be happy with .5 or 1 cm resolution
