Oh, fantastic. This is what I had in mind in one of my previous posts. I am happy to see it already solved. Great!
The idea of Damocles is quite good and could be useful but I could imagine that this is a bit complicated to do.

as I said.... post your suggestions.. ATM its not late (espically because the most complicated code part - saving hmp's and mdl's - seems to work much easier as I thought (thank god for the mdl7.lib and hmp5.lib - which could give me some new possibilities to implement!
thanks for the comments,

I thought about GameEdit yesterday and got 2 ideas / questions:
1) As I could see you support deforming of terrain. But as far as I know it will not work with chunked terrain. What does that mean? Will you not support chunked terrain or will you simply disable the deforming tools when chunked terrain is selected?
2) Which version of GS will you support? Does GameEdit work with 6.31 or will it only run on 6.4 and higher? Many users have 6.31 projects and will not switch them to 6.40 because of compatibility issues. So it would be nice to have both. You could even sell the 6.31 version when that is the problem. At least I would be happy to get GameEdit very fast to work on my actual project on 6.31 and I really appreciate your great work that you have done so far.
Best regards,

@ ulf: yes it is possible to "paint" gras or trees on terrain. There are Several config options for the rand settings. MfG SF

Hey, Quote:

(Of course) deforming of chunked terrain is not possible. You'll have to start the engine in unchunked mode. There's nothing I could do againts this engine limitation.

ATM this Version wont support A6.31.4 because it's made for A7 and not for A6.3 and therefore uses A6.4 / announced A6.5 features. But maybe I'll support A6.31.4 in a limited version when I sell Game-Edit for myself.

Hey Mr. Stark, if this is not yet implented, I have 2 more Ideas:
-A filter, were people can choose wether they only want to view the models,
terrains, sprites etc. In the scene would be great in my oppinion!
-An automatic shadow generator, this might be none sense of impossible,but for
trees I guess its useful, the program takes the model, makes a screenshot from the
top view with a white background, turns any other color in to black and then puts
it in to the level as a sprite, that way there is an exact shadow that works on
static objects without motion. Could be useful!
But hey Mr. Stark that is excellent work there!
