Exporting options

[DarkCore]

Is thier a way I can export a terrain to .x, .b3d, or .3ds?

Hi DarkCore,

X is the only supported mesh format at the moment. To export the heightfield as X:

1. Select the heightfield (view->show map->heightfield).
2. Open the export wizard (file->export->active map).
3. Select 'X (DirectX)' from the format drop-down list.
4. Set the filename and click OK.

Note that the output is in ASCII mode, so it's probably going to be a bit big. If size is a serious issue, you might want to look into exporting the heightfield as a TER or BT file, then use a TER/BT->3DS utility to convert to a binary mesh. I can't name one of the top of my head, but either someone in the users' community will, or else you might want to Google the subject.

Cheers,
Aaron.

PS: I get a '404: Not found' on the website URL in your sig. Thought you might like to know.
