So, last night I played a little with Anteworld, and I was like OMG. This looks so freaking awesome, the quantity of vegetation that this engine can manage is unbelievable( I specially looked at the grass it's so dense that you can almost say it is real), and the fps level it's stable and more than decent. I always look for vegetation's realism when I try a new engine, and this one has all my respect from this point of view. I already tried other engines like Unigine but the FPS  was very low( 5-6 fps ) and the grass , the texture was awesome but it wasn't dense enough, if you got a top view with the camera all looked 'indecent'.
 But with Outerra there was no such problems, the top view was astonishing. The density of grass, it's amazing.

My question is: will this be launched as an SDK sometime in the future? Meaning will I be able to obtain the engine(buying it) and create my own terrain/plant models etc... and implement my own gameplay...
 I look forward to it's launch :). Nice work guys

Its a fully-use planned Engine, so yes - there were also few posts about possible future licensing posibilityes, etc. ... just look around the forum a bit, you're find a lot ..

Much Much better!

Is there something new with the self-shadowing as well? (notice the shadows on the person)

Shadows seem to be much darker for some reason ... something happened with the ambient light.

I like it better this way! Also, it seems that the smoke feature on the craters has been removed, but its ok.

Tree variety is very welcome. Great. Is the tree species distribution totally random? Would be nice to have some kind of clusters of specific trees.
We need someone, who could make good looking tree textures and it will be perfect.
Btw: seems like global warming is a problem in Outerra too: even Himalaya is snow-free now!

It is random at the moment, but clustering will be implemented soon. Missing snow .. seems I forgot to return back some temporary hacks.

Nice patch.

Do you still plan to implement 3D-trees at some point or is that a major performance hurdle?
