cool, nice features you added there.

and you are not just talking(like some people do) you are showing it too cant wait this tool's release/beta/alpha etc.

I´m very curious, about that thing...
Can´t wait too, to play around with it...

Finally added some kind of terrain deforming

man..that's great tool you're working on. just keep posting the new features you add.

and i have to repeat torsten's question: are you planning to add realtime terrain texturing? i see that you're implementing terrain deforming but texturing would be extremely great feature.

keep up the great work and post your new features here...

Looks very promising. Can't for the tutorial. But I have one question. Do you have to write the complete editor with all functions in C++ or do write the most stuff with C-Lite?

Can you use any kind of lightmapping in your editor? Is this feature planned? If not... sorry... the editor would be useless.

Why would it be useless? I don´t know how it is with this project and there probably aren´t too many thinking the same but I myself do most stuff for they way and not for the result. I want to learn something when playing around with different open source libraries or some special things like head tracking, anaglyphs or just basic shaders. Even is the result is bad I would never call those things useless. Maybe for you but it is not for me.

About this project, it looks very nice so far and you seem to make some very fast progress. It is btw quite easy to get some basic static shadows working... The integrated shader editor looks like awsome stuff :P
Just go on and have fun with what you are doing

@Slin:
Dont get me wrong. I like the editor. But it makes no sense to create a wysiwyg-editor with no lightmapping.
A complete level only with dynamic shadows? Dream on.

unless you had dynamic shadow mapping which is very much coming close to a possibility for 3dgs users.

I plan to implement terrain shadows (models/sprites casting shadow on terrain - maybe also self shadowing).

What do you mean with lightmapping? Of course I'll support creating lights. I'll "fake" them in the editor with dynamic lights, and when the compiling starts replace them with static lights. But create dynamic lights on the fly without a "rendering lightmaps" compiler seems to be really impossible to me. Or do you have a good idea how to realize that?

yes terrain painting is planed.


And again: Everybody is free to help me with the development of the editor.The only requirement is a good knowledge in C-Lite / C++.
