That dome bit could be optimized quite a bit.

Keep it up!

I'll optimize the dome section if I add a higher map, or want to stay riddiculously low on poly counts (unless it loks the same, ill try it soon....)

I just noticed something really cool with my new video card... It can do per-pixel shading and not have perfomance slow down!!! here is a comparison to my screen view and my render!

Oh, one more thing. Make sure you change the resolution of the 640x480 texture to something that is a power of 2, as otherwise, it's not elligible.
