I noticed, c-lite has no noise functions which can be useful for generating Procedural textures and models similar to what you might find in the upcoming EA game spore or infinity the quest for earth which is being produced by an independent developer.

You could just wrap the library to be used with lite-c

So I can access that dll file with lite C?

No, you need to write a plugin using it, or modify the source to work with lite-c

Yes, you can access a DLL file with lite-C. You need to write a plugin when you also want to access it with C-Script.

cool, I thought it still needed the plugin architecture for use with 3dgs.

Quick question, I was looking through the manual and am a bit puzzled, is it possible to create vertexes and models on the fly or do you have to use a 3d editor for that? Since using perlin noise functions you can procedurally generate terrains and such (i.e. like spore does). Just a passing curiosity since it looks more than likely i'll be purchasing 3DGS pro by mid july. If not, do you think A8 will have that ability?

afaik you can modify the verticies of models and terrains on the fly.
to "create" a terrain simply have some flat "prefabs" with various #verticies for your needs.

you can access all directx functions from within the engine. i'm currently creating meshes on the fly, too. but for generating procedural stuff you need strong coding and math skills.

Highest math I ever took in college was pre-calc. Now i'm cringing.
