Xna World Editor

[Da3dBlender]

very, very nice!

[vacrial]

@Da3dBlender thanks

[TedtheCyborg]

is it possible to make a cave using this? or an overhanging ledge, so there would be more options for a game?

[Da3dBlender]

@TedtheCyborg I think that since this program is working with height maps, no.

[Da3dBlender]

@TedtheCyborg But you could make a program that is able to to that, it is just more complicated

[vacrial]

@TedtheCyborg yes that's possible :)

[vacrial]

@TedtheCyborg but you will have to code it

My engine can operate with a 3g engine rendering a cave

[hiamn94]

Is not this editor the Arcane editor, from the game!?

[vacrial]

@hiamn94 non but that's the same engine :)



[hiamn94]

Where can i get it?

[jjppmm29]

i have a question how did you go about using multiple textures... because i have had alot of trouble finding a good resource to show me how to go about it i just cant seem to find one... i have one that passes like 4 textures to a shader but i dont really feel comfortable sending like 30 textures to a shader... i have thought up another but it dosnt allow me to do blending verry well pls any help would be great

[vacrial]

@jjppmm29 try to search for texture splatting on google

It's a system to draw texture on a terrain

Where can i download this?

[zirkerc]

Super cool editor. Is there a link to download it?

[vacrial]

@zirkerc non sorry, not yes :)

[KoljiSK]

If it's not too much to ask, how do you render XNA scene in a WPF window? Is it the D3DImage control?

[ILFZ2]

Very good aplication, but the UI is not very original and it needs to be worked out.

Anything else to be said is Great Job to the developer.

[TizzyFoe]

@ILFZ2 Why would you want original UI? UI should be as unoriginal as possible. The more it resembles other UIs the easier it is to pick up.

[ILFZ2]

@TizzyFoe a custom ui is much more comfortable for users and makes the aplication look much better.

[BlasconeIt]

Beautiful application !!

[TheXperiencestudios]

please this is a very important question. does this come with xna game studio 4.0 or do you have to download this seperate?

[dadare6]

@vacrial where can i download this?

[wind27382]

so i guess my main question would be is this available for sale to the public. i am working on an xna title now and we are looking for a good world editor.

[PhilOByte]

can I make my own map with this, when I draw a highmap in Paint (e.g. the shape of a "P") ? And is it easy to export it to the Content Pipeline??

[vacrial]

@PhilOByte Yes and Yes very easy,

there is a Processor and a Imported attached with this editor

[anonymouscitizen0101]

@vacrial do i have to be grood at maths and good at sketching if i want to become a game designer/level editor?? cause i am average at maths and i am a horrible drawer

[vacrial]

@anonymouscitizen0101 level designer ? no, but you have to learn some little things about trigonometry

[nysten20]

were is the link?

[komoj47]

what game is that?

not wow or warcaft 3!?

[JustHQ]

Well done man !!!

[brendonnelly]

is there a size limit on XNA games?

[vacrial]

@brendonnelly for Xbox yes, i think it's 150MB, for the other devices no limits.

[lxXTaCoXxl]

@vacrial On the contrary, the XNA Student / Tester program allows up to 2GB for XBOX. :D

[vacrial]

@lxXTaCoXxl thanks for the precision

[vacrial]

@brendonnelly someone tells me 2 gig

[FreezingHazard]

very well done

[MforceArts]

might be a stupid qeustion, but could it be possible to put these maps in WoW?

[vacrial]

no sorry.

[voxlmcrew]

@MforceArts yepo thats a pretty stupid question atleast in a official server lol

[i321mm]

Were can we download it???

[marscaleb]

It looks pretty nice.

Can the terrains built with it be easily used in other applications?

The interface looks pretty good and I'm diggin on those preset auto-generation options.

[vacrial]

@marscaleb yes, and you can export it by defining your own format

[FreakEyy]

Is it out yet? Is it out yet? Is it out yet? :)

It looks really good, man. I'd love to use it!

[xgelite]

thats really nice.

Where did you get started? how long have you been working with xna?

[vacrial]

@xgelite 2 years i guess

i kown DirectX and MDX before...

[Necrofitzia]

It really reminds me of the WC3 Map Editor.

[vacrial]

that's true, i were inspired by this editor

[glitch17811]

What did you use to make the UI themed like visual studio 2010?

[vacrial]

i made it myself

it's my own ui framework.

The result today is more efficient

[Biljoke]

Nice,I'll try it for sure 5/5
