Terrain algorithms

Hi everybody,
I have a question about Terrain rendering, more specifically LOD algorithms. I've been inspired by the Infinity Engine (featured in the Dev Journals) by Ysaneya to create a better terrain engine than the one I currently have.

I just need a suggestion as to how to implement collision detection in my game.

hi all,
I'm still learning d3d at the moment ( hence the beginners forum ) and I have what I imagine is a very basic / stupid question.
I have started making a 'game' and I have done everything so far in windowed mode, and everything worked fin... |

hi,
Thanks.
The planet is not Earth, but I set the radius of the moon to that of or moon and as you can see I placed it a lot closer than what our moon is to the earth. I don't really want to model the game world after our own solar system, b... |

Atmospheric Scattering Problem with sky horizon

Hi again,
I thought I'd update this post with where I am so far. I have managed to get the terrain scattering working perfectly, and I'm a little closer to getting the sky finished.
The problem is pretty much the same in that when the camera i... |

Thanks for your help Mr. J. Jeffers.
OK, I thinking I'm leaning in the Geo-mip mapping direction, however this leads me to a couple more questions, as was inevitable.

Suggestions for collision detection ...

Hi,
I'll take a look at the 2-tiered method, but for the moment maybe you could tell me ( in advance of me finishing it ) whether the following would work, I have the int array mTileMap[x][y][l].
X, Y = Position.
L = Layer and the values ar... |
