Question regarding terrain/urban

by Maurino · in Torque Game Engine · 03/09/2004 (12:57 am) · 3 replies

One of the levels I've thought about doing was an urban scene, my question was if terrain was even neccicary for this or if I could just use interior shapes, also is it possible to lower the 'resolution' of the terrain? (as in lower polys) or remove it all together? Thanks in advance, any comments/suggestiosn welcome

To remove the terrain simply open up the .mis file and comment out or delete the lines attached to:

new TerrainBlock(Terrain) {
.
.
.
}

No land at all.

If you wanted to use it in a very limited role and have "low" resolution changing the 
new TerrainBlock() {
.
.
squareSize = "x"; 
.
.
};
parameter seems to do that (the larger it is the more spread out terrain you get).

Some parts of the code don't like to change when you change squareSize, so beware. Fluid code is particularly bad.
