I think he means something like that:

You have a slantwise area and want to place a box on it. Now the box should match to the area and not being placed horizontal.

*edit: Wie ich vom Screen her sehen kann ist der Editor diesmal in deutsch. Das gibt auf jeden Fall einen Pluspunkt

Cool I´ve loved the First one and look real forward to Version 2.

@Dan: I've planned a "Tree-Placer" like in the Sandbox editor, so that you can select different entities an place them on the terrain, randomly in an area.

Almost the whole editor is rewrited. Only some parts of IceX are in IceX2. The terrain system is totally different. now you can have real mesh LOD an the terrain texture is using multitexturing. If you want to import an IceX-level into IceX2 you can not import the terrain texture.
There is no release date yet. I would say till christmas the editor is ready for the betatest. I hope I have cleared all bugs in IceX2 which was in IceX (especially the shadow generating).
The editor will be released with 2 language modules (english and german).

IceX is fully scripted in C-Script. Only the open/save dialog and some internal function which need double variables are written in c++.

omg ^^ this is so hot. never would have expected this advance stuff from 3dgs to be honest...

can't wait!

Here is a list of things which are better in IceX2 than in IceX and already implemented:

- seemless deforming/painting, if you deform/paint over a terrain-tile the other terrain will also deformed/painted, you will think it is one big terrain
- the shadow is now rendered in an extra shadowmap so you can export it. And now you have softshadows (blur passes)
- multiple entity selection/moving/rotating/... as you can see in the teaser

I think these are the major improvement of IceX features which are now much better in IceX2

this thing is Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much needed!!!!!!

I hope it wont take to long till you release it

cheers and great work!!

extremely cool. I loved the first IceX and still use it.
