Dear Mic: I have heard from many folks that realistic terrain is an objective for a number of projects to represent real-life regions in a simulation, so I would vote +1 for any class, written details, tutorial, demo *or* whatever might get this knowledge spread around the Metaverse a bit.

There are two "plazas" on ScienceSim that use terrain built from GIS data (Yellowstone National Park and Mt St Helens volcano... should be one more 4x4 plaza coming soon). Feel free to come by and take a look (hypergrid info for sciencesim is on the opensim wiki). If there is interest, I would be happy to do a "class" on the process I used to make those regions. --mic On Thu, Jan 29, 2009 at 7:14 AM, Dave Coyle <coyle+open...@knifejaw.com> wrote: > On 2009-01-25 16:13:35 -0500, m...@tola.me.uk wrote: >> As for OpenSim, I'm still exploring (though I'm running out of time).
