Update Speculation thread

Uh not spikestips-related but still a great thing, would like to form something cool with it someday

 

World Editor V3 when?

 

I dunno, why quoting me though

 

Ah shit, I just realized

 

Im guessing this is a building generator tool and not houdini implementation (i doubt houdini would get implemented).
It does seem targeted more towards newer modders, or modders who dont make their own assets. Which is good as it will bring more people to make mods.

Just a bit worried about the optimization of the tool. (Does it have LOD's, poly count, drawcalls). For example, extensive use of meshroads destroys performance (Although devs have stated that meshroads shouldnt really be used to build maps).
Second worry is that the tools are a bit difficult to grasp and to fully understand how they work, especially with saving and editing them. So i mainly stick to not using them. (biome tool was awesome tho).

Im guessing they will continue to add more tools with time, as there is a trend. I do hope they plan to update the terrain sculp tools, as they are really basic. If you want to get any kind of realistic looking or detailed terrain you have to rely on procedural workflow outside of world editor.

 

I dont see any reason this tool couldn't generate a lower LOD version especially since all the assets used are pre made. That doesn't seem like it would be incredibly difficult to do

 

And you already forgot about the biom tool..

 

This is really great! We don't have to reuse buildings that are exactly the same as vanilla maps to create maps.

 

What was the assumed Update date based on previous updates? I remember there was a post about it, but i cant find it.

 

I don't know, but we can assume it to be soon-ish, due to the frequency of teasers

 

Sweet, thank you.

 

As someone who is starting to get back into map making ( for my own use ), It would be great to see this Cool tool, As long as its not ultra hard,

 

Would this mean that we can make out own building props through world editor?

 

Yes that seems to be exactly what the tool is going to do

Keep in mind the car is damaged, maybe the hood is just bent funny

 

WOW this looks like it will be amazing for making maps! This will be very helpful for modders like me.

 

The beamlings

 

We need Beamlings to be implemented. Way better than the BeamNG walking mode character

 

Beamling sex update when

 

Yesss!
Maybe I can actually make a realistic Midwest map now.
I guess I'd probably need a better computer, but anyways, this is awesome!

 

Never

A good ol’ Midwest map would be neat
