 Thanks Vincent. I'm looking forward to using you're dark tools, you'll been working very hard on this even before the time of DarkMana (congrats). Good you're sharing the news to the community, hrmmmm... If you don't mine I can help spread the word, to some of my favorite old school rpg communities aswell, they will love it. Well theres very less for me to say than what I already said before, so keep up the awesome work guys you earn it. Maybe someday I can help work on you're future projects as a artist.  Have a nice day, Bye. |

If you look carefully, you can see that the textures has been applied to a 3D face (the chin and the nose reveals that a bit). The character has been completed a while ago. I'll pass the good words to the artist  |

New tool I just added to the minimesh generation: attach to a splatting texture. In the following example, the splatting texture is the grass layer and I generated the minimesh from that layer.  |

looking good! thats a good old idea with a good new look you may want to take a look at poisson discs to place your mini meshs more natural on your splatting texture. keep up the good work!  |

You can set the random distance between each minimesh, which helps a bit. But I will surely look into that fish thingie. thanks for the tip   Dang I wish we could post full size images on this board... |

Very cool!
By the way, right-click + "View Image" in Firefox shows the full version. The forum keeps it fullsized, just fits them inside the post width.

antoher hint: Group your mini meshs into chunk-instances, that is, create an own TVMiniMesh per chunk and add all instances to this. Sylv has implemented my idea to compute the bounding radius for each instance to check if this is visible first, instead of checking each single mesh's visibility. Thus you can have more mini meshs with a higher speed in the distance and you dont need to care about the culling stuff. Its been a while, but this is how it looked in an old experiment of mine:  |

In other news, after reading Serial's posts, I couldn't pass on adding this nifty feature of landscape generation. It is working but far from being complete as I want to add some extra features like glaciation, canyons, plateaus, etc.  |

Hi newborn/RaineC:
I'm really impressed with your work, i think this is far one of the best projects i've seen with Truevision3D. Keep up the good work! I want to see some more!
The website is cool too, but internet in my job is working really slow this week... (what an irony.. i work in a telecomunications and internet Company ¬¬ )
Are the tools available to use? Are you going to sell them to public?
Congratulations again!
