I noticed that you guys seem to have certain areas "dug out" where cities would normally be. Are those outlines the intended size and shape of the cities or are they just preliminary markers?

You can "Level Terrain" under a selected object ( F7) . But if it works fine for small object, I never managed to level terrain under Isengard, Minas Tirith or other huge models...

These are pretty awesome Pat, nice work!  8)  Edoras looks as good as any model I've seen in Outerra. Thanks and I'll take a look at the otx you sent me. Feel free to post on the me-dem boards if you want.

Hi guys, we have an update. Our textures have been improved- mainly an alignment fix, and some improvements
with vegetation distribution. These look now how they are supposed to look at this stage in development. Mordor still has a little snow mind you, but I think you'll agree it's starting to look something like it should. :)



 












Check out the new gallery here: http://www.me-dem.me.uk/galleries/Outerra2/gallery.htm


Looking ahead now to getting some better data into Outerra; terrain and biomes. We're going to do some development on the textures. The whole northern end of the map needs tundra and boreal forest. There's a few things we need to do...but I think we can make some major improvements quickly.

Will we need to take action ourselves to add this update or will it be added on startup?

Is CVI going to just be when all the models are uploaded into it?

End of this year is the date thats currently floating around for CV1 :)

By the way, are guys going to use normal mapping/parallax mapping/displacement mapping for details in the models ? Does the Outerra engine support them ?
