Raw Terrain Support coming soon to Primstar

Originally I planned 3 products in the star range, Primstar, Avastar and Simstar. Simstar however didn't really have enough features to make it a separate product. So we've decided to merge those features into Primstar. The main feature is support for raw terrain files. I finished coding this yesterday, and Gaia is currently documenting the features and preparing a new Primstar release.

So very shortly, you'll be able to edit your private region terrains in Blender!

If you are interested, here is a video about how you can import a terrain map and split it into 16 parts for usage as sculpted prims:

I am currently working on a video covering all aspects of Terrain and hope to get this out tomorrow.

Terrrain delay

Sorry for the delay in getting the new version with terrain support out. Gaia discovered an accuracy issue during testing that we've spent the last couple of days tracking down. That's been resolved now, so hopefully you won't have to wait too much longer Smile
