At 0:59 in the october forge video - Fated Fire is moving a set of grouped objects across the terrain and the terrain isn't moving with the objects but rather the shape of the terrain is. THE LINK EDIT: Guess the xenforo embedder doesn't carry timestamps into the embed so click the link
That was actually Nokyard's map, not Fated's, in the footage. But, that is the projected terrain system, which was detailed in the original forge reveal blog on Waypoint, at work. Terrain items pull their textures from a global texture sheet. This allows you to merge terrain items into one another or into the canvas's terrain and preserve a seamless texture. You can load multiple texture sheets on one map by placing terrain items from different categories, but this is somewhat expensive.
They must have just used that footage and that voice clip together - implied he was doing it. Thats really neat though. So he is using the standard terrain objects except the texture is static to the world - makes sense.
@iParanormal You had me worried for a second. By the topic of this post I thought I had travelled back in time and was going to have to wait another couple months for Forge to drop.
We were on the same wave length, Preacher. Thankfully, this time around, I only partially shat myself... ;p
@iParanormal 343 just had a forge demo on Twitch not that long ago. If you're prepared to flip your marbles, click on Olive the pig.
