Just to clarify- we're talking about Brazillian and Canadian "Americans" here, right?

what I mean is that what they were seeing had no relation to String Theory, other than that the visual manifestations on the wall of what they were doing looked 'string'-like. I may very well be wrong, but what they were doing was actually related to interference patterns, right? I might not have u...

If PC wasn't there: PS3 has the extreme high tech uberthreading Cell processor, which is going to rule for quite some time. So why are people voting nintendo?

What you are describing is so utterly not what others experience.... It's so far out there that I'm at a loss. Could you perhaps take a screen capture of it, and tell us a bit about your system?

Forgot to ask... Can mapconv accept RAW files? If so, that would make my life much easier. I've never tried it but yes it should accept 16bit RAW for the heightmap. Edit: It should also support 24bpp RAW for the texture and metal maps... The advantage for these files is rather non-obvious to me tho...

How much would it take to implement a 32bit greyscale heightmap? The heightmap itself has 16 bits of resolution, and mapconv will accept a 16bit raw format heightmap... I really doubt we're going to be needing more than 65,536 distinct levels. The challenge is getting a 16bit raw heightmap. [Maybe ...
