how is the new island editor?

[gothicv]

Is visitor any easier than wrpedit? I haven't tried either but think i may get into it due to the fact that my neighborhood would be a good "island" to be had. Ravines, beaches, not many houses etc. I have a local map and everything. As a child I used to run around here with toy guns. Just seems like the right thing to do.

Hey

Well, IÂ've been testing Visitor for 2 days now, and using WRPRdit for ehhm, since they released it, and I think of Visitor as folows...

First of all, its a great tool, Its a lot faster to use than WRPEdit, You can create small islands in a matter of minutes now (if you know what buttons/functions are for what) and compared to WRPEdit this wouldt take more than a week.
You have the long awaited Copy/Paste function, and the tool automaticaly generates roads/forrest etc. You place items just by right cliking the mouse. Allso you get to use Buldozer a 3D viewer, once inside buldozer you can rearrange all of your objects or turn them arround, and like this nothing is placed wrong since you placed them in 3D view. But one of the most briliant parts of this tool is, that once working on an island, you can give all items/objects/roads/forrest etc. your own names, this meens no more translating/guessing words. For examble one typr of road is by the creators called "Sil" what the h*** is sil? so I just named it  "Astfalt with lines", cause thats what it is
On the other hand we all need to get startet. So BIS have released a great tutorial, that shouldt cover the basics and get you startet with your very own first island, I spend 10 minutes with the tutorial and after that i felt at home in Visitor.

Thats my words on Visitor.

Jones Out!

Wow, I love Visitor, I didn't even finish the tutorail and now it's a lot easier than WRPEdit. The only thing i don't know is how to edit heights, because I've only done that simple map of the tutorail.
But I think you can finish your map very fast because of the easy roadediting. Just make an end and you can click to a point were the road will go.
