I can't seem to download the torrent file as the link is broken. Could you send it to me?

Thanks,

Ben

I managed to get it, but it either loads as a black world, or says 'initializing the world...' like you had. Did you manage to find a fix?

Thanks,

Ben

I'm not sure what is going on with this. We've both been very busy. I pop on here every so often to see the Outerra updates. Maybe Brano can shed some light on it.

Brano will have to look at the download. As far as installation and run time problems, I'll take a look at the latest version of OT running with the demo I've got on my hd- see if I can identify any problems on mine.

Sounds good thanks. I only found out about this the other day, but is has such a huge potential.

There seems to be a problem with the default camera location. Please run the attached mod to fix it.

Thanks Cameni, it seems to be fully working now. Out of curiosity, is there any more plans for development?

There's a new, much better biome model prepared, with the land positioned correctly on the globe (more to the north). ME-DEM guys certainly have plans to continue enhancing it, but it's still just a hobby project and research into means of making planet-scale detailed terrain that has enough detail to look good up close. However, there's no higher goal with it, as it cannot be expected that anyone will be able to acquire a license for M-E anyway.

Sounds good, thanks for the update. Keep us posted as to when this will get released. It would definitely be amazing to see any expansion of vegetation that is more suited towards different environments like Mirkwood etc.

Thanks again.

Hi, yes, we will continue it, but things are on the back burner for the immediate future. Improving the biomes would be a major enhancement. I've still yet to install the latest Outerra here...I've got a beta deadline around about now for a game I'm working on, so things are a bit log jammed here, until that's done. If anyone knows anything about ME-DEM...well...people said we'd never do it...and we did...but it took us 8 years...I took 18 months out for my band, but it's one of those things that's always in my mind...and I returned to it and we got to where we are now!...Releasing the demo with Brano's help was more than anyone ever expected, so it's been a certified success so far. Interest from people always helps too...although I have to say haha...there were long periods where we were very much under the radar and people returned and were shocked to find that we were still alive and kicking :-D

Wow this is really amazing. I always wanted to explore the landscape of Middle Earth in 3D :)

Do you have any news about the next update?
I would love to see water on the rivers plus the updated biome model.

Thank you so much for making this.

sure many things were in the pipeline,, one was sure dunes. In the world there are huge tracts of desert terrain of sand and rock,,.
Hopefully someday continue this great work.

Wow! Nice.
Is there any way to change settings in Outerra to create rock formations like that?
Or any sites that you can download from?
