Question:
Though hitech, could you give me an answer if you will be allowing terrian editors to define more than 7 tiles in ah2? Because this is a huge limiting factor in aces high 1 when building a terrian.
Answer:
F1Bomber: One of the nice new things about AH2 Terrains is it is no longer an expontial curv on adding tiles. Currently we are limited to the same set as AHI, but each in set it has 4 sub sets. I.E. as in 4 sub types of forest.
Changeing the tile is not as easy as AH1. Tiles are now compltly 3D and also encompase the trees and bushes and such so changing the underling texture can look strange. To change the 3D portion requires a 3D editor.
Ive been searching for a free or inexpensive one that has the needed items for AH but havn't been able to find a sutible one at this time.
How the final form of AHedit will be released is still some what up in the air. Currently im considering creating my own 3d editor that will only function in a very limited fasion and basicly alow you to create tiles from other smaller component objects.
