| I'm working on a map generator, you can define all parameter's for terrain, and paste any object on. Shadows are integrated multitexturing, modulate 2X, skybox etc. After saving map you can load it on your blitz projets with one line of code :) goodbye positionentity and terrainy :)  |
| ||
| Nice ! What's about collisions with the objects on the terrain ? |
| ||
| all object are collidable :) |
| ||
| That looks niiice. :) How are you going to handle different textures on the terrain - for example could I put in an area of concrete under those trees and still have the surrounding area covered in grass? |
| ||
| Looks Stunning and seems like a great App!! |
| ||
| For the moment i plan only 3 textures on terrain heightmap colormap detail map shadowmap Try an alpha demo : http://www.blitz3dfr.com/tempo/TerraEd2.0.zip you can load a test map : The command are Select an object in the "object window" (with bottom button) select Tree01 in the listbox, next put trees in the terrain with middle mouse button. The toolbar icon are not coded for the moment ... For move in your map use right mouse button+keyboard directional. |
| ||
| you gona charge for it ? |
| ||
| For what ? texture numbers ?? |
| ||
| for the product. that your making. the terrain thing. are you gona charge for it or are you releasing it for free. ? Cos if its free id use it ;) |
| ||
| filax, Good work as always :) |
| ||
| no this product will be shareware. |
| ||
| This really look nice, I'll pay for it! |
| ||
| Well depending on how much it costs, I might buy it. Im wondering if you would consider adding another layer for Detail like roads or walkways and such. ? |
| ||
| i think to fix price under 30/40 euros |
| ||
| . |
| ||
| If you can code it, don't buy it... :) Looks like a cool application though. But I am one of those guys who prefers to code it himself, because I want to know how things work, and I want the app to do what I need. |
| ||
| What's the difference between this and Worldspin exactly? |
| ||
| Hi all, for request about the terrain , its for me :-). Actually this editor work with Blitz Terrain, but I'm working on Terrain Mesh System. I uses the QUADTREE terrain algo to make it :-)so you have polygons where you need. You will be able to texture it by patch or for the totality. I can say it will be some media in the package (some cool tree and grass) (The Filax touch lol), and a good algo to manage all objects on the terrain |
| ||
| xmlspy ? lol eole and me let us not oblige anybody has to buy? |
| ||
| Filax, Looking good so far... what is the eta on this project? IPete2. |
| ||
| i'm working on :) but a more fonctional demo cmoing soon. For the moment you can : Select object Move Object Rotate Object Scale Object Delete object Undo Create forrest in two mouse click :) Create Terrain Modify Terrain Setup Camera Fog Setup Light Trees and plants Shadow (problem with other object) To do : SkyBox Setup Preferences setup |
| ||
| Why don't you merge the colour map and shadow map into one map? Unless the colour map is less detailed than the shadow map... or vica vesa... Just curious. I have a combined colour/shadow/light map in terrain shader and it looks fine. |
| ||
| If you can code it, don't buy it... :) Well, the other side of that coin is ... if you can buy it, why code it? If this product does everything that the one you would write yourself will, you could save a lot of time by buying it. |

| Well, the other side of that coin is ... if you can buy it, why code it? If this product does everything that the one you would write yourself will, you could save a lot of time by buying it. Amen to that one. |
| ||
| True.. But I just like to code, and I'm not in a hurry |
| ||
| Well, OK, that's fine then. I was talking more from the perspective of someone on a deadline. :) |
| ||
| The "i can code it" argument always annoys me. If you are going to code one yourself then leave the guys thread a lone. To those that do like to code everything theirselves then buy Visual C++, download the DirectX SDK and build your own 3D engine rather than using someone elses for all your projects! Then there is thre problem of the OS - you write that? If people are writing their own software let them sell it without the "I could write one myself" thing. Large. |

| Large. I agree 100% with Ravey. |
