    Hi everyone,

    We have developed a script that cuts the 3D mesh surface by tracing an area on it.

    Looks great! Does it work on any mesh? Would it work on a plane?

    If you could make it work on the terrain, you would have a product which many people probably wants to buy. In that case it can be used for placing caves and making special terrain effects. GOOD JOB!!!! :)

    Thanks to everyone for the very positive feedback!

    EnigmaFactory It works with any mesh, plane or whatever.

    MEV I don't think the terrain supports anything shaped like a cave, as it works with a heightmap, it shall not support any interior cavity.

    yuriythebest I think a worms 2D style terrain can be done much easier than this one.

    Obatztrara thank you for your comment.

    Tig developed this for a project we have, he's a great guy who followed up on his work even though it was more difficult than originally conceived. And he refused to take more money for the extra work, I have to push it to him!

    bigkahuna thanks for your support.

    imtrobin Thank you for everything.

    I want to thank to imtrobin as he allowed us to demonstrate this project that we had done for him. He is my best client and I would work for him anytime witout hesitating for one moment. Despite the project took longer than estimated (it took months) he supported me till the end.

    That is impossible because terrain isn't saved as mesh but as heightmap.

    Interesting. Could you achieve this effect with textures, making cutout areas transparent.
