Hi,

This is procedure for make terrain via Advanced Terrain plug-in. Please show me a little example how can I make shadows on this terrain from the objects that previously loaded.

Thanks

Go to your DBPro install folder and look into \Help\commands\world and you can find the Terrain commands in there...

If this does not help, ask some more with more detail

Welcome to the forums eayonov

EDIT

Also look in \Help\commands\GameFX particularly at Global Shadows

I posted an example code of terrain and some cubes on a thread I started here. Read the whole thread, you will need too. I am linking you to the 2nd post, which has my example for download. I am currently using latest DBP update ( U77 ) with a DLL that Lee gave me to fix the fog / shadow problem that DB Pro has. That thread I am linking you too, shows what the problem is to begin with.

and if you get frisky later and want to play a little more with terrain generation with self shadowing and water..

Umm, try the Windows 8.1 Editor, but check Text Editor options in err Options and ensure the check boxes are checked, try unchecking them all and then restart the editor and then go back in and check the ones you want folding and then restart the ide again...

Thanks MrValentine, no effect. But if I create a new source file and do these steps:
1. write


2. added any symbols into "function..." string


3. then delete previously added


the folding markers are appears! But after some hours pass ... etc.

His link is to his old IDE.. he never updated his post.. However, in that link I just shown you above, he has the DOWNLOAD button right there on his post. Grab it before that is no longer available.
