Hello, Thanks for the tips. Today I've been trying Tundra. I really like the way it works (in terms of flexibility) and the demos definitely help =)
... but I still experience some problems and have a few questions for you ;) 1) How can I use a heighmap with the Terrain Component? The terrain editing tool doesn't seem to work for me and loading a png always gives me "out of index problems"... (and I mean, for each value it gives an error, no value is accepted ever!). 2) The second problem was during world building. Apparently, it does not save my object positions correctly... Sometimes it does, other times it does not. I edit the objects directly in the server. Do you know what could be happening? I did not have this problem with Taiga. Oh and sometimes I get this error that, maybe, is related: [ECAtributeEditorBase] Error: Unknown atrribute type qvector3d for ECAttributeEditorBase creation. 3) How can I use asset http fetching instead of local? I would really like to try Taiga as a real server in a different machine and test some client connections to it... Thanks you!
