How to remove meridians and parallels in a sphere in three.js?

Question

JavaScript

earth_geometry = new THREE.SphereGeometry( 200, 20, 20);
        var texture_earth = new THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture('Earth_hr_clouds.jpg');
        earth_material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({map:texture_earth, overdrav:true});
        earth = new THREE.Mesh( earth_geometry, earth_material);
        earth.position.x = 1000;
        scene.add( earth );

Here is the code, as you can see, the texture is superimposed, but the problem is that it is "in a grid", these very parallels and meridians are visible, or as they are correctly called there. So I'm wondering how to make this "grid" not visible?

Answer 1

dear Fraideron , I have fully understood your problem, and I strongly recommend ...sicMaterial({map:texture_earth, overdrav :tru... fix it to overdraw and everything will be as requested, the wireframe effect will disappear. You can also deprecate CanvasRenderer in favor of WebGLRenderer

Answer 2

if you mean that the edges of this sphere sharpen like anorexic bones)), then, as an option, you can increase the number of polygons, something like this:
new THREE.SphereGeometry( 200, 50, 50);
