Which terrain editor works best with Irrlicht?

Hey guys, I have a quick question.

What would be better for Irrlicht, FreeWorld3D or T.ED?

The reason I ask is that FreeWorld has all this mesh support and such, but would this really benefit in Irrlicht?

And T.ED seems to be slowwwwwwww but people say it is really good.
And I cannot make a 512x512 map, it is using X and Y tiles....which is a bit weird.

If you don't use either of these, which would you recommend?

depends on what you need it for, what you need it to do...

I went with T.ED.

Why was this moved to Game Programming?

Well, it was written in B3d, not c++

. but Slow? shouldnt be -that- slow what hardware are you using and how big is the map?

eh? should go any size hardware willing. The reason it is in tiles is because its better for dynamic loading in many engines.

Because it's a general game programming question.

I personally use Earth Sculptor, but I heard that T.ED is good too.

there is a program called 3d word studio, and we have a loader for it.
supporting two texture blending xD

3d world studio is a map editor though.

EarthSculptor does look really nice to.

well, i use it for making terrain, then exporting it to bmp, loading with earth sculptor, and export as mesh xD (coz i need them as mesh)
