Will Digital Elevation Mapping be possible ?

No, it will not be possible. The terrain editor can only edit the terrain over relatively small areas, since it was build in order to create the precise coast lines near harbors. The elevation data is largely the same as in the previous games, but you can alter it as you like with the ter ed.

It can also do things like terrain painting with different textures (roads & such).

Each of the harbor buildings used in the game has a texture with their pre-painted road maps for increased productivity, but you can also hand-paint any shape you like if you wish so.

PS : if some one can provide an upload link pls PM me in order to send you some specifications.

Ok thanks , good to get those tools .

I guess we have a developer on our hands. 4 posts and all with HARDCORE knowledge of the game. I really apreciate it, Pintea!

Now the only question is, which supermod will recruit him/her first:O:?


I'm going to buy this game for the modability alone:).

<jumps up>

DIBS!

No, just joking. This is very very cool though.:rock:

Exactly! The modding tools are as rich as promised. Kudos to the developers :up::up:

cant start the terrain editor. it is shown in the taskbar list...but if i choose and click it, nothing happens. is there any special condition needs to be, so the editor can start?

greets

same here, terrain editor won't start:hmmm:

solved. editor starts only if you are ingame...and near land...

another problem with terrain editor. what about existing objects? they cant be changed as far, as i tried. any info on that?

There is also a TerrainObjects editor.
Buildings can be deleted (delete key) and added in any way you like.
Just check out the document.
