deltaGhost 10 Posted August 26, 2011 Alrigth so here is the question Do you have to crate your own ingame map or vistor will auto generate it ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robster 11 Posted August 26, 2011 eee nop... vis does not create maps automatically... anyway, there are a few apps that create "fantasy worlds" that could be imported into vis to make an ingame map... but even this way there will be a lot of work ahead to succeed... just take a look over those tutorials... chabela washon!

bushlurker 45 Posted August 30, 2011 Might be an "english not primary language" question, maybe...? Do you mean the "ingame map" as in, the map you see when you go to "map mode" in-game? - that's generated automatically... If you do mean the actual landscape or terrain then.. well, yeah... you have to make that yourself.. that's the tricky bit... for realworld places you'll need a DEM (heightmap) and maybe a satellite image to match... maybe look at ZeroG's tutorial for an introduction to that... for "fantasy" terrains it's like Robster says - L3DT, Wilbur, etc... L3DT's "Design Map" section will create a landscape from scratch with a couple of clicks... plenty of little parameter sliders to fool with - presets like "scottish highlands" and "desert mesa"... it's a good place to start I guess - you can get a full 90day demo of L3DT pro for the asking, or use the free basic edition for a bit of practise to start with...

Robster 11 Posted August 31, 2011 I forgot to mention EarthSculptor... just like aforementioned programs it also can work with real data in some PNG format (i.e.: DEM exported as PNG). Saludos! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
