This can't download fast enough, been really looking forward to this update.

 

Thanks!

Not in a position to grab this yet. I appreciate this is an early Terrain implementation. Is it possible to have more than one terrain object currently? And if not, will it be a possibility in the future?

There is one terrain per world, centered at the origin.

thx Josh, the 16 Texture layers are really nice. But to work with it i miss 1 or 2 functions:

1. Scaling the terrainheight

2. import from other formats then raw image format

There will be a small update later this week. A scale field will be added, and a few other fixes will be made.

it crashes when I generate a terrain. Exeption_Acces_violation. how to fix this problem? I'm using windows 7, AMD radeon 7520G

I have to say I like the landscape editor a lot, and I love how artist-friendly it is.

 

One thing though: the landscape editor seems to be incompatible with my map that I worked on before the update (it creates an 'exception access violation' error and then closes LW. Should I just re-import all the stuff into a new map for it to work or is there another solution?

Same thing here, and my video card is almost identical as well. I think its because of compatibility issues with older maps, but I could be wrong.

I had the same issue, had to do a full clean install which i didnt really want to do. Saying that i STILL get 'exception access violation' errors randomly from loading projects to changing from terrain tab to scene tab?

 

Some bugs to fix i assume.

Existing projects need to be updated. (See the project manager.) This will add the new terrain shaders to your project.

When I press the update button it goes like: " Failed to copy folder "Models" to project directory. why? where does it need to be copied from?

so with you having to build the nav-mesh in the editor/code does this remove dynamic navmeshes. Say a bridge breaks, would that update in the navmesh file or in game, or would i have to call "World::buildnavmesh" and if so, how long would this take?

In the future we will use a combination of static and dynamic navmesh data. For the present, navmeshes are pre-calculated and should be treated as static. Crowd avoidance will still work dynamically, of course, so moving entities will plot routes around one another.
