NOTE -- Beta 6.0 has been released! Click here to see the Announcement thread.
This thread is no obsolete. Realmware is pleased to announce the planned release of Beta 5.1 this coming Friday, October 30th, with much to see and many reasons for you to download it. Visual3D Beta 5.1 will provide you with the following: Miscellaneous Benefits:
Terrain Tools Reloaded!
(Check out the attached screenshots of what I could accomplish in just 90 minutes of terrain editing. ) Bonus Features (if they are ready by Sunday):
Note, Beta 5.1 will be the first release to implement a 15-day trial with timeout unless you have purchased your own product license. Each new Beta release will provide a fresh 15-day trial, so if you haven't purchased Visual3D, you will be able to continue trying out our new beta releases for 15 days each. For those of you who have been "on the fence" deciding whether or not to purchase, we hope you will join the other Early Adopters and make the purchase over the next few weeks. Realmware is extending the current Early Adopter's offer through November 10th, 2009. After that, the price is likely to go up, and the offers may change. We assure you that Visual3D is a good investment and a good cause. Your money will be 100% spent to accelerate the development and completion of Visual3D. Please make your purchase today, and enjoy 2 years of free software upgrades with the purchase of your indie license. (EDIT: I changed the target date from the original date of Sept 27th, to the new target date of October 30th. Sorry for this one month slip!) Check out this terrain I created in 90 minutes using the Beta 5.1 Terrain Toolset starting with a Default Flat Terrain! This is smoking. (Note the advanced outdoor lighting in this first image -- we have dynamic skies here with star map, and some sweet looking ground-fog to add an extra level of movie-like realism.) ![]() Last edited by najak : 11-06-2009 at 12:20 PM. |

That ground fog is sick! I'm tempted to carve Najaks face in the side of that mountain.

As I build these terrains, I'm practicing up for the narrative tutorial. Luckily, my kids don't hear me practicing these narrative, or they'd be making good fun of me. I'm planning on pumping out a few tutorials myself, and already am making plans to have "chaplain" pump out some additional tutorials.
My goal is to produce a tutorial on "how to construct a full lush terrain in under 30 minutes" but time compressed into a few minutes of tutorial. I'm planning to have supplementary tutorials to highlight a few techniques as well, to show how to best achieve the desired effects, etc. |

It's funny that you mentioned that. One of my favorite things to do with the terrain is make faces in it, or write words on it. I've written the words "Buy V3D" a few times, and when I get out of control, sometimes I make a shape that resembles a busty lady (not on purpose of course).
