I am still trying to make an overhead shooter The problem encountered: All terrain engines are square... For the over head shooter I need a rectangular terrain, meaning I need it to be longer going one way. What I thought of doing is taking the height map and trying squeezing 3 sections into it, so one I reach the end I wrap around to the other sections, obviously the section will have to blend at the tips... Another way I thought of doing it is create my own custom 3d mesh for the terrain in 3DS, which will be bassicly a rectunagular mesh. I have friends in the aerospace industry that can draw up some nifty terrains How computationaly expensive is this method? Also, now LS uses 1 big detailed texture, that is a tga which we have to convert to jpg. CAn we load the tga in photoshop, and draw vehicle paths or foot prints on the tga then save it as jpg and import it to LS?
