I saw and reading up about this
in a 3D Graphics magazine over at Borders bookstore.

Looks really cool. You can create,generate urban enviroments. I just wonder if you can use them in 3D Game Studio.

and here is a YouTube vid link:

Hi falagar8,
It look like this can be use in WED or MED. I don't know it you can save a big city, but you should be able to save parts of one. see photo:

This should be in Morbius or Tools.

@sadsack,

thanks. yeah, I'll probably download the trial version and test some of it out. Take some of the samples and generate urban enviroments and see if I can use them in non-commerical and learning projects for test and use.
I was just wondering if I can use them in 3D Game Studio and since being still a starter or beginner with 3D Game Studio.
I still got to read up on,learn and do levels in 3D Game Studio.

I'll definitely post this in tools too.

Light-C will not load level. You will have to save them as a mdl file and load them in as a object. Then you can take your camera and fly all over the city.

thanks sadsack.

for taking the time to test it.
also for sharing and telling me and others here too.

I will use my both my Town Portal and Fly spells
in order to fly over a city. Unless I have a specific area or town marked with the Llyolds Beacon spell.

Did somebody test the engine yet ? Iam really interested in this software...
Are the buildings low poly? I mean is this engine usefull for FPS too ?
(cant test it myself..this is my working pc and my internet at home is down)
Thanx...

you can load mdls with level_load (i guess you can even load .x files).

and, since city engine exports to fbx, you can import it as level blocks from wed.

hey thanks for the information, Quad.
I'm certainly no artist but I'm slowly learning and getting around using the MED editor.
I'm starting to use the Skin Editor, Manage Skins
and textures too. X seems mostly the easiest to import and work with and then the Quake2 md2 models too.
Well, the particular sets of models that I do have. When using the md2 models, I use HP Photosmart Premeire to convert the PCX textures over to bmp. The regular MS Paint doesn't work properly all the time.

I'll leave you and others with a few screen shots:
I still have to learn how to attach an item like a sword onto the Knights hand and using the MED editor. And also thru scripting too.
Don't tell me...please.




and my favorite cat...Garfield.

This should really be moved to tools by a mod, also helps if people stop posting in here if it isn't .
