Looks nice, but there is something I noticed in my own flailing attempt to retexture the NE Libya map with Google Earth tiles some months ago.

The game engine makes the Google Earth tiles very light and bright. I never figured out how to control that and "tone down" the colour to a darker, duller sand shade.

I agree and am still working on them - they'll get there - that said, the desert *is* very bright, I think the stock desert textures in the game are too dull. -viking
