Freeworld3d

hey, do any of you guys know anything about somthing called freeworld3d? its like a 3d level editor except it's primarily for making landscapes than buildings or cities. It seems pretty useful for creating vast expanses, but I also want to be able to put a city in it. Do you know if there's any way to create a landscape with Freeworld3d and then use some other editor (more along the lines of DromEd) for adding detailed cities/buildings?

Milestones approaching:

Recital: 3-24-12

ToughMudder: 4-15-12

Release first FM: ?-?-20??

What do you want it for? Putting into a game, or making pictures/movies?

 

It probably would be possible to export the terrain into a game, but from the screenshots the meshes look very dense (lots of polygons!), so it probably wouldn't be very fast.

 

If you just wanted to put the terrain into a 3D modelling application (like Blender or Maya or 3ds max) and add in some buildings and render it, then it would be fine.

My games | Public Service Announcement: TDM is not set in the Thief universe. The city in which it takes place is not the City from Thief. The player character is not called Garrett. Any person who contradicts these facts will be subjected to disapproving stares.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
