Title: New TE...
Post by: Strip on July 28, 2009, 03:24:32 PM: Now that Beta has been released how long you think until we see a new TE?

Any idea on new features?

Post by: Strip on July 28, 2009, 11:01:52 PM: Yep....I screwed up and sidelined myself until the new TE comes out. Updated my only copy of the old version.....cant even open my map to look at new objects now. At least I can take a object from Ac3d into object editor with out manually changing things around in notepad.

Did they increase the size of the terrain tiles from 512 to 1024 pixels?

Post by: Denholm on July 29, 2009, 10:49:00 AM: It shouldn't take long to bring out the new TE. In my opinion, HTC values the work performed by dedicated terrain generators such as NHawk. Therefore it would only make sense to arm those dedicated terrain makers with the appropriate tools to make compatible terrains.

Short story: 2 weeks.

Despite the two week mantra I think your probably right.

Post by: Strip on August 03, 2009, 02:42:01 PM: I got five sheep to whoever calls HTC and bribes them for the TE.....

:P

Side note....

Do lights from AC3D work in-game?

Is there anyway to make a object that you can collide with and destroy at the same time?

High altitude lakes?

Strip, why don't you bribe HTC with the sheep? Eleminate the middle man!

Post by: Denholm on August 14, 2009, 04:24:40 PM: Did they take the case and run?
Title: Re: New TE...
Post by: Strip on August 15, 2009, 08:13:10 AM: For a case they should model the B-29!

:D
Title: Re: New TE...
Post by: Denholm on August 15, 2009, 11:28:46 AM: I think the price was set at 24 cases. One case per day for four weeks. :D

Oh, they do require refills. For some reason the hard-drive with the test models always fails.
