cyrodiil and silgrad

[1mjolnir1]

Just out of curiosity, what are the scale comparisons between cyrodiil and the silgrad map? It's obviously much larger, how will you integrate this in the next version with the seamless walk between lands?

Silgrad has over 36 height map quads.
We'll generate part of the Oblivion landscape on our height map.
At the transition point you'll have the same (LOD/Distant LOD) view as on the Oblivion side.

36!

That makes most other worldspaces look like water droplets.
