Progress on a Terrain Model

Kind of in the works still and I can't give an in game screenshot because in game it's invisible but I can give you a rendered 3d screen in Dark Basic Pro. So here it is so far. Once it's 100% complete I will distribute it and if anyone can, can you help out with making it a custom segment the help will be greatly appreciated.



Progress! it's not invisible on FPSCX9 on the other terrain model.



Even more progress in a short time! I got this second terrain to work in FPSCX10 to.

This is very nice im glad i decided to give users rights to make polls seems to come in handy.

I thought it might not work considering it's a new website or have glitches but your html skills are superb =) 5 stars on the website. Also this will be done as soon as I figure out why it's invisible in fpsc.

These are pretty good I think, especially considering they're not complete. Nice!

The only problem so far is getting the .x file to not be invisible this is my second attempt to.

Great work so far! Better than I could ever do!

It definitely looks nice, keep it up

I finally got it to work so tonight when I get back from picking up the guitar.

Great how did you do it

All you have to do is use Milkshapes heightmap generating tool then generate your map and map it to the size you need it then texture it from the texture mapping tool to top. After that all you have to do is duplicate it and move it -0.01 so it's directly below the old one that way when you walk up hills and such that are steep they don't disappear as easily.

Edit - also here's a couple of free terrain models the fit the whole entire map and you may need to make some boundary's if nescessary.

Very nice a great contribution.

I'll be making many many more. What kind of terrain textures do you guys need like snow, desert, mountains, grass, rock, ice. Just tell me and i'll try making some.

Try making grass valley so that i can have water running along the bottem of it i would really like to have one like that for a project im working on. Obiously dont need the water texture as i would use X10 water but terrain would be good.

I like this so much i have made it a sticky as a rule for stickies you need to put any download links in the top post aswell as anywhere else for easy access so if you can do that then i will keep this topic a sticky for good instead of 1 week sticky liek it is now.


One last thing what width and depth did you use for the terrain tool in milkshape i cant work out the right size.

You gotta make it 64x64 first then texture it then make the size x3 on x, y, and z

Sounds great, could a inexpercienced somewone like me crete those things also?

EDIT: They look great but they don' t appear in my game, you' ll just fall trough them.

HEy i have just found somewthing beatiful! In this movie you can see the real power of outside enviroments in X10!

Ok along your previous post on the first page did you make 2 layers of the enitity and on the second post that was amazing im going to work on something like that.

Edit - I will be releasing a tileable terrain shortly after testing is complete. Also a singleplayer level will be released showing off it's benefits.

Nice! Is it easy to create such terains?

It really depends on if your lucky cause I hate the heightmap generator so it is kinda difficult to make something like that. Also I can't make trees XD

Awesome! Can't wait! Will it be free or will it cost money?

It all depends on how mountainous or flat it is and how well I do on the grass/rock textures.

I could make some of the textures for you, if you wanted.

Awesome can you make a 2048x2048 grass or rock texture? Preferably both for it =)
