it is still on dev.
At most 1-2 month, as real life work take a lot of time...
I just want to point that the main thing is that I'm really working on a finished polished product, easing its use and giving documentation and several samples as well.
So it takes time, but I hope for good reasons.

Cheers to that. I have faith that it'll be a knockout.

That's great Tuan, looking forward to playing with it!
One question, will PLSM3 be written from the ground up, or modified from PLSM2? I ask because PLSM2 has some shaky parts in its Octree Scene Manager code that wasn't very compatible with other libraries I was using.

Just adding my own interest and support for this, looking forward to testing it out when it's done.

Me too. Mostly for the far superior documentation.

1-2 months? I would've thought longer than that. Cool. I'm excited.

Cool! Looking forward to your release, but I'm also glad you're putting care into it and taking time you need.

Any updates?
I'm trying to decide whether I should get something else working in the interim or just work on other parts of my game and ignore terrain for now.

I'm also waiting for the update, but I'm going to focus on implementing different parts first. I can still wait a while for PLSM3, because terrain is actually not really required in my project.

I've been having a conversation with Tuan outside of the forums and he's still working on PLM3. From what he's told me, it sounds very promising. If you've read my AdVantage Terrain Library versus PLM3 thread, you'll know my concerns about the PLM project. It seems he's going to be dealing with all of them.
He doesn't visit the forums often anymore because it's distracting and aggravating - most people are asking about the PLM2 not working with the latest version of Ogre, etc. while he's concentrating on the next version.
The last he said on the progress was that it was going to be done in a couple months, so I'd assume that's the case unless he says otherwise.

When you speak to him, send some kudos from me!
And that I know what he mean: sometimes forum activities drain too much energy and distracts too much.
Looking forward to what master Tuan comes up with.

I can imagine it being insanely off putting/annoying/frustrating looking at the forums with all the PLSM2 problems and people asking for PLSM3.
I will be interested to see how he is splatting, coming up with the best solution is driving me slowly insane, 12 splats in 1 pass seems the best all round option so far, ive managed 28 splats in 1 pass using a combination of 2d and 3d textures but it seems 3D textures are a lot slower to access so im going back to my original plan.
If he needs any help in this area i would be glad to help.
Ban him from the forum untill PLSM3 is finished

Still not ready (structure is done and clear but heavy bugs and lot of documentation/samples to finish).
And not much time to inject in it for now as Real life really takes too much time.

a good question
An older post, I know, but still relevant.
If PLSM3 were turned loose on the masses before being in a working condition, Tuan would spend all of his time coordinating dueling patches. Sort of like herding cats, if you know what I mean.
This is one of those occasions where I welcome a benevolent dictator rather than a democracy.
I missed out on being able to put in my two cents for a feature list. Hopefully PLSM3 addresses enough of my concerns. But then there are alternate solutions on the horizon.

It really does have to be that way sometimes. My project has been the latter for over two years until recently. Sometimes its just time to get things done right, no matter what the masses say.
