TX 2D Terrain Deform
by Pauli Jokela · in Torque X 2D · 10/09/2008 (6:53 am) · 6 replies
Hello everyone,
I was wondering, has anyone ever had to implement terrain deformation in Torque X 2D?
I'm having trouble finding out a way to implement this.
I'm trying to create a simple 2D terrain (random terrain), but also have it so that it's deformable (eg. explosions -> hole on the ground).
All I found was this:
http://www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=13884
But not sure if that'd help me with TX.
Anyway, I appreciate any and all help on this.

Are you talking about something like this? www.ziggyware.com/readarticle.php?article_id=154 This should be possible to do in Torque X. You can hook it into the stock MoveComponent (a separate component would be better). Add the DeformLevel() method and call it from the ProcessTick() method. Change the textureLevel to point to the Terrain's material instance texture. Something like that should work (though I have not tried it). John K.

Thank you, I think that the article should give me more than enough pointers. :-)
