Here is the first official video-teaser of the upcoming realtime editor "IceX 2.0". It shows how you can edit the terrain and the entities. It's still work in progress, so more features will be added, but have a look:

AWESOME JUST AWSOME!
I have to get it, i just.. cant... wait!!!!

Looks really good. Some incredible developments popping up as the community has matured. What can I say - Wow!

very impressive

wow... I'm surely waiting for this one... the terrain editing especially!

amazing, keep up the good work oliver! may i ask what are you using for writing icex?

That looks very handy. The physics feature is amazing. I am looking forward to this tool.

You and TripleX should create one editor package together.

Nice stuff! Are you going to add hotkeys to speedup the workflow? The painting feature with blending is very nice.
Is there a release date already?

Will there be an easy way to place entities on terrain, objects and other entities? For example, the physics things is neat, but what if I wanted to drop the three cones on the terrain where it sloped and have them "land" properly? In other words, will there be a solution for placing entities where you don't have to visually align the entities with the ground, but a press of a button (or something) will do that part for you (all you would have to do is get the entity close to the ground or object that it would set on)?
