    Baldur's Gate 3 is a 2023 role-playing video game developed and published by Larian Studios.It is the third main installment of the Baldur's Gate series, based on the tabletop fantasy role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons.

  3. Sphere mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_mapping

    The map has been created as above, looking at the sphere along the z-axis. The texture coordinate of the center of the map is (0,0), and the sphere's image has radius 1. We are rendering an image in the same exact situation as the sphere, but the sphere has been replaced with a reflective object.

  4. Stereographic map projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereographic_map_projection

    The sphere is normally chosen to model the Earth when the extent of the mapped region exceeds a few hundred kilometers in length in both dimensions. For maps of smaller regions, an ellipsoidal model must be chosen if greater accuracy is required. [1] The ellipsoidal form of the polar ellipsoidal projection uses conformal latitude. There are ...

  5. Volumetric lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_lighting

    In volumetric lighting, the light cone emitted by a light source is modeled as a transparent object and considered as a container of a "volume". As a result, light has the capability to give the effect of passing through an actual three-dimensional aerosol (e.g. fog, dust, smoke, or steam) that is inside its volume, just like in the real world.

  6. Orthographic map projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthographic_map_projection

    They are written in terms of longitude (λ) and latitude (φ) on the sphere. Define the radius of the sphere R and the center point (and origin) of the projection (λ 0, φ 0). The equations for the orthographic projection onto the (x, y) tangent plane reduce to the following: [1]

  7. Quadrilateralized spherical cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrilateralized...

    Development of the quadrilateralized spherical cube projection on an Earth model [1] In mapmaking, a quadrilateralized spherical cube, or quad sphere for short, is an equal-area polyhedral map projection and discrete global grid scheme for data collected on a spherical surface (either that of the Earth or the celestial sphere).

  8. Gnomonic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnomonic_projection

    Gnomonic projection of a portion of the north hemisphere centered on the geographic North Pole The gnomonic projection with Tissot's indicatrix of deformation. A gnomonic projection, also known as a central projection or rectilinear projection, is a perspective projection of a sphere, with center of projection at the sphere's center, onto any plane not passing through the center, most commonly ...

  9. Möbius transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Möbius_transformation

    Möbius transformations can be more generally defined in spaces of dimension n > 2 as the bijective conformal orientation-preserving maps from the n-sphere to the n-sphere. Such a transformation is the most general form of conformal mapping of a domain.
