Heightfield erode

Thanks for that info Chris

Hasn't Geo Control developement ground to a halt? I read that very small updates are released now and again but nothing truly big has been added for a long time. I think GC2 came out like 3 or 4 years ago now?

Not really, just slow development and lack of communication from the developer. (No development blogs or hints of new stuff) There are bug fix updates but no new significant features that i am aware of. That is all i know thus far.

I think this is what I meant actually. Chris maybe he has been working on a mega update for the last few years in secret and will release it to the public soon 

I know Planetside development is frustratingly slow but at least it feels as if the product is moving forward. When updates are released there are some big additions and not just the odd bug fix and terragen remains an incredibly stable application.

Sometimes in development that does happen. Just when the user base thinks all is stagnant, a significant update is released so you never know.

I think for myself i never had any frustration with the slow development on the part of Planetside. It is what it is and i understand why it is.

Thank you T-U and chrisC

I'm going to be looking into these things. Seems to be a must know subject.

As you note, this is a feature that is not frequently used. Consequently we can't really justify putting much dev time into it. There are better dedicated heightfield editors out there with more robust erosion functions so that's what we'd recommend if you need something beyond the basic capability TG2 currently provides.

Hello, what are these better dedicated heightfield editors? Do you mean another program all together or a plugin?

Thanks
