Most likely duh O_O If that was what he was referring to in the beta
messages, it only took him minutes to make it up

You never know, Andras could have written 1 that superseeds Rolands bot on
every aspect such as having a direct GUI for changing levels at once (like
on the sims) and things like that. We will have to wait and see. (Not that
ive actually seen Rolands yet)

I think it's something integrated into the browser? maybe not, haven't
heard any detailed info about this since Tech Talks stopped nearly half a
year ago :-(( I'm planning to write a bot for terrains based on heightmaps,
my prefered method of defining landscapes.

There is an inbrowser editor for the terrain, but he's asking for one that
will load terrain from a DEM. There's nothing in browser for that. I
suppose it wouldn't be very hard to write a bot to do it, like Rolands.
Maybe he should add it to the SDK site ask an example? :)

From what I read, the terrain can be manipulated via the browser and
bots using new SDK functions. But who knows?

Actually i thought it was Young Shamus that created the "TerraFormer" I
was demoing it a couple years ago. Very kewl App.

If this is what your talkng about..... it would convert DEM files to
objects for your world....:)

TerraFormer is replaced (substituted) by Dem2RWX ( http://andras.net/modular.html ) which does a lot for terrains. I just finished adding the new terrain feature to it and the program will be released to the public after I clean up the mess I made.
