GENSURF MAP!!!

[your face]

this is a map that was really fast to make (gensurf) and looks pretty weird too!  lol, im not goin to finish it or anything (build times r monstrous!)

[CreatureofHell]

:eek:  HOw do you do all that? I get horrible build times from a lot of lighting when it gets to IlluminateRawLightMap. You seem to do lots of these maps that pop up quickly one after the other but never seem to have a point.

The map geometry is automatically generated. The large build times are due to the whole map being structural.

ya, just do gensurf, but im telling u, the build times r HUGE!!!  xD  but it actually looks kinda cool in a weird way....

p.s. AND THEY DO HAVE A POINT!!  xD  lol, y else build maps?  and the map at the top is the ONLY map that i ever used gensurf on, all my others didnt hav gensurf, they were homemade if u will....xD

[your face]

okay, im going to upload that map to my filefront, download if u really want to....

[==Troy==]

FATE will do a better job for you. :roll:

Personally, I would never touch Gensurf unless I was doing a seriously massive terrain job, like an ET map.

I use a personalized version of SOC's terrain tutorial.

cool, where can i get it?  is it free?

It's the technique described on his website: http://www.simonoc.com/pages/articles.htm
See the terrain blending article.

DASPRiD used this method in Ancient Remains.

That's good ole' Lava for you

That's good ole' Lava for you

It kinda looks like the randomly generated terrain created by those French students...

[ShadowNinjaDudeMan]

I wonder why...

Gensurf terrain is not randomly generated.

[your face]

well the "gensurf" i hav duz.... :O

OKAY!  get my maps at my googlepage from now on.  i got direct ftp finally!  wooot! its on my sig at the top.

[DASPRiD]

It is not random, but follows mathematical algorithms.

It is not random, but follows mathematical algorithms.

Or you can paint a greyscale heigthmap and use that in Gensurf, that's the way id Software did it for Quake III Team Arena's terrain maps.

lol, well all i do is click a few buttons and....abrakadabri!  foom, there it is. xD

I bet that if you toy around with Gensurf for long enough, you can come up with some pretty nice pieces of terrain.

[your face]

yeah, i shuold try taht!
