Hello,

Has anybody done a lot of work with Terragen? Terragen 2 seems really awesome.

My main question about Terragen: is it possible to have a player run around the terragen level? Or is that just a waste of CPU time and space?

Terragen 2 is a good thing for skyboxes

What is a skybox laugh

Im looking to create outside worlds where the character walks around in the Tarragen terrain. Can this be done?

Yes it can but its a bit od a process, you have to save out as a .raw file then convert to bmp in an image editor, import inyo Med as an image file hieght map and done for that part.

Then render out the skin in Terragen and save out to your project file then add to terrain skin in Med.
Sky boxes are what makes those awesome skys before lite_c

Cool,

Is it worth getting though or is it easier to just use the MED to create the terrain?

ive had a look at terragen but for creating terrain that a player can walk on i just do it on med because i dont like messing with height maps.


One day there will be an unfixable bug,
That day is not today.
