Changing vertex color of terrain.

[bonsalty]

Whats the best way to change the vertex color of the terrainscenenode , not the material color?

loadHeightmap allows you to set the vertex colour iirc.

Thanks, I do it this way. I would like to change it without generating a new surface, but I guess its impossible.

Iterrainscenenode->getMesh()->getMeshbuffer()->getVertices()

And then modify the vertices in the array. Wouldn't that work?

The terrain node has dynamic lod, so the meshbuffer is constantly changing. You'd have to change the vertex color every time you moved to keep up with lod.

Hmm didn't think about that. I'm guessing that calling the loadHeightmap function every time you wantg to change it is the best then. Unless you can somehow access the vertex color atribute and change it directly. But I don't think its exposed via the API.
