Any terrain editor yet?

Post by suliman »

Hi
Im doing sort of a flying sim/strategy game and need some terrain. As far as i know i can only load a heightmap and get a terrain from that. Is there any editor out that can edit the terrain ingame? What i need is a way to lower/raise terrain with the mouse and see the results in the app directly.

It would also be most useful to be able to "paint texture" so a road-texture could be painted along the terrain to make that section look like asfalt.

Does anything like this exist for irrlicht?
Thanks a lot
Erik

Please search this forum, there's an app almost exactly like your description:

almost. The one you point to changes height of a single vertice yes but cannot paint terrain-texture. Cladys editor (that is also in the thread) seems very good indeed but has no sourcecode sadly.

The code is inside of an Irrlicht Wrapper for FreeBasic language, it is not a clear Irrlicht code;
As a tips for you, I started with the Katsankat code, but for more vertices, not only for one;
