Dragons teeth?

Post by Roadkillguy »

Pardon me if I'm being dumb, but I cant seem to find dragon's teeth or the fortified wall thing anywhere in Complete Annihilation. Are they not even in the game?

They are not part of CA. You can use Advanced new Terraforming technology to achieve the same functionality. :-)

Here is a guide: http://trac.caspring.org/wiki/Terraforming

PS: In the future, please post about CA-related issues in the CA subforum. Thanks.

You can do a heck of a lot more with terraform than you can with dragon teeth. See the link midknight posted.

I was thinking this is a place where it would be nice to have engine support - a pair of simple repeated texture-maps that are alpha'd in proportionally to the displacement from the neutral. Have 2 maps, an "up" map and a "down" map. It wouldn't look great, but it would make deformation more visible - even cratering is hard to see in certain map textures, so if the bottoms of the crater were actually darkened with an earthy texture, that would help.
