There are some features which will be really hard(almost impossible) to release because they are closely bound to BI dev content like raw(non-binarized) P3Ds, but on the positive note bLT has some handy features not even mentioned in the video(like quality assurance tools)Īfter the conference I got contacted by individuals and even teams, asking me where they can download the addon as they would like to have their hands on it and give it a try. Let’s stop talking for now… check out my talk at BlenderConference2016 about the Blender Terrain Tools(Edit: just currently I changed the name to bLandscapeTools) so you guys can make an image of what I’ve been working on. Necessary to note that I never intended to write a tool which would take over the world BI/BISim tools, but rather try to fill gaps(small/large) in terrain development.īlender is a 3D modeling tool(and much more), but you can’t expect fancy features which can handle big chunks of terrains with millions of objects on it, it has its own bottlenecks and limits, but even back then I could see, that the advantage of having possibility to import terrain mesh and its textures to Blender and start placing environment content much more easier way(comparing to Buldozer) or even modeling content over a terrain is a feature that will never come into Terrain Builder/Buldozer.īy sticking together Blender’s default features like sculpting, painting + powerfull API I was basically able to add many time consuming and “Visitor4/TerrainBuilder hard to get implemented” features into Blender.
Many handy world creation features were not available back then, are not available now and will never be implemented in BI/BISim world creation tools Wanted to improve my python scripting skills, as I like to automate or at least speed up processes The main reason I started this addon was: It’s of course the bLandscapeTools (bLT), an addon for Blender I’ve been already working on for the last 8 years. In my defense, I’m mostly active in Arma 3 Maps Terrains Skype’s group, but the topic I want to share with you deserves to be discuss here(skype has short memory and is not as comfortable as forums, for such kind of discussion). This is, after working at BI/BISim for almost 10 years, my first topic created here at BI forums. Hi map/terrain/environment/world… makers,
