osm2torque: OpenStreetMap in Torque3d

[dakk]

Hi all,

this is my first post; I'm making a project (started today) which will allow to create Torque3d levels from OpenStreetMap data. It's just a concept for now, this is a first result:

Planned features:

• Streets (of different types)
  
• Terrain
  
• Landuse
  
• Buildings
  
• Base free assets with buildings, plants and different road materials

 

The project is opensource, so you can follow the development on github: https://github.com/dakk/osm2torque

Looks interesting, can't wait to play Deathmatch on real life locations ;)

Stuff like this is always nifty. I'm looking forward to progress on this :D

Glad to see someone else interested in this idea! I've done a fair amount of work in this direction, but haven't had time to finish it yet:

How is progress on this project is coming along?

Just thought I would chime in on this. Looks like SideFX Software are making a tool that may help with 3D open street maps.

Hey, nice find! That looks really slick.

Has there been any progress on this subject!

it definitely looks like it hasnt had features added to it in a couple of years going by the github but i think it works

Are you saying that I can use the program to gather OSM data that will work in T3D as opposed to Houdini?

[marauder2k9]

i havent tried it but according to the github yeah you can use it to translate osm data to a street map for the roads, buidlings and things like that just have to be placed afterwards
