+Menrva 4,202 Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) For now, live with it. The terrain uses a 250m heightmap, which is better than the stock 500m. I still have to find the perfect combination of values for the terrain's _data.ini to get rid of this issue. I am not planning to update all the terrain packages shortly.

+Menrva 4,202 Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) The trees are messed up due to wrong TODs. We really need a TOD editor. Edited November 3, 2019 by Menrva Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is not easy for sure. Mue even managed to create TODs with buildings of different shapes, using LOD objects converted to act as TODs. I'd like a "simpler" tool which only enables to make TODs as they are in SF2, to open them and to modify them, nothing too fancy like custom building shapes so to speak. It would still require a reverse engineering process of the TOD file format. Speaking of the TexasASC terrain, it's indeed the most rushed of all my terrain works. Other terrain packages I released are much better and more complete, target areas wise. I am busy with more important projects, and two interesting terrains. The F-22A Raptor project is now my priority. Once that is done and released, I'll be back at (my favourite and exhausting) terrain modding.

I was having a go at myself, I am very critic of my own stuff. The issue with trees could be easily taken care of, by simply removing the wrong TOD file for the associated tile. In the future I will double check all my terrain packages and improve upon them once more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Menrva 4,202 Posted April 11, 2020 @russouk2004 Mate, it just occurred to me that the bugs you mentioned about my TexasASC terrain were actually solved already. I usually update my packages, and most likely you're using an older version of the terrain. Anyway, just wait for next week, I'll re-upload sligthly updated versions of all my terrain packages. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
