Title: Terragen 3 is out!
Post by: Oshyan on August 18, 2013, 05:05:01 PM
As most of you are no doubt aware by now, the final version of Terragen 3.0 is out! The "shipping" version is 3.0.07.0 so for all you pre-purchasers out there, be sure to check for updates and get onto the latest version as it includes a lot of stability fixes. We've also made the preset and object content available for download in your account. There are more than 20 high quality object models provided by Silva3D.com and Ulco (Dune), as well as 35 example projects and clip files of textures, clouds, terrains, etc. These can easily be loaded and organized in the new Library system.

We are currently caught up on new registrations and are working on importing older purchases prior to the existence of our new store system. We expect to have this completed by the end of the weekend and we appreciate your patience in the meantime.

Enjoy Terragen 3!

Does this mean we can't access those downloads until this is done?  I can't seem to find them on the site.

I downloaded the latest update for T3 and it worked beautifully for one day. Rendering was 10xs faster but now it will only render for 1 second and it says it's done.
I've sent in a help request 2 days ago but haven't had any response.

Well done guys. It's been a long hard road!
No crashes for me so far - all working perfectly on win 64 on i7.

The presets were published over the weekend. Emails haven't gone out yet because we're syncing some old orders so we can notify everyone at once, but all existing purchasers *who have accounts in the online store* should absolutely see the presets as well as model pack available for download. If you don't, please contact us at support AT planetside.co.uk.

animotaxis, we responded the same day of your request. Please check your spam folder.

Well thats great! Why all the secrecy until now?

What are the plants? What clips and example files? Sounds like a great thing to advertise. So why not advertise it?
Or do I have to order to see... A surprise? There are no more secrets anymore guys, PRISM knows all! You may as well tell us everything you know ::) :P :-*

Uh, there's no secrecy Badger. We didn't have an exact count of objects or presets until recently, so there wasn't a lot we could say. We have said *from the beginning* that there would be presets.

But Im just poking the bear... Im rather happy with this! Thank you for doing it.
And thanks to Walli and Ulco for helping out on it!!!
And to whoever produced the clips and examples, whatever they are of. Im sure this is going to be some fun.  8)

Congrats to all involved - it's an excellent product, and has kickstarted my creativity all over again!

.....errr... maybe I'm blind, but I can't see the presets. I logged in and I found the Xfrog and Silva3D plants sampler below the different free TG versions, nothing else... :(

Alpha testers don't have accounts in the online store because you access different download versions. The presets have been made available on the alpha forums.

Don't want to be seen as impatient, but have all the license keys gone out? I got the impression they would all be sent by the weekend? (I bought TG2 in the grace upgrade period, anybody else do this and have theirs?)

Cheers
Steve (ok, I am impatient)R  ;D

The TG2 auto-upgrades took a little longer to go through. I'll send your key out momentarily, and thanks very much for your patience. :)

Thanks Osyan, have to say you guys are epic on this forum - top service :)

Don't rush though, early start in the AM so I am signing off shortly to catch Falling Skies with a glass of red and then bed!

Cheers

I'll wait for the Planetside email regarding the presets which I'm very interested in. I think it would be good for you guys to post all your 'links' (titled) in one place ...I've lost count and don't know where to go (comes with age).

Thanks for for all your hard work for bringing this extra fine software to birth. Its like having a new car.
