Zip vs TAR ...
If I'm not mistaken ... *.ZIP is not supported by the plugin-installer on the Wings3D menus ? Or were my eyes failing me again. Please advise.

Well, I was assuming that you could unzip it and copy the files manually to the right place - something like "c:\program files\wings3d_1.4.1.36.g53af2\lib\wings-1.4.1.36.g53af2\plugins\primitives" under Windows.

Ok, I just upload a .tar file.
Also, I was thinking you were interested to play with the source code.
RE: Heightmap Surface [plug-in] - ggaliens - 11-20-2012
I will want to play with the source files, so thanks for sharing them.
But ... since you were including language files (three) and one beam file. I figured maybe you should consider the .tar or .gz format. I know it might "scare" some Windows people. LOL. But it is loved by the installer.
I wonder if we can make the plugin installer love zip files too ?

(anyway, I didn't check the source code where tar file is managed).

Micheus and gg, both you guys know how to use git.
Just create a remote and fetch the branch you want to test
I sometimes also help dev for a project called mypaint, and their users pull git branches for testing without having any coding skills! Of course wings is a tad bit more complicated to build. But once the dev/git environment is setup, it's dead easy to try the latest version of wings any dev is producing.

The plugin sources are already on github and about the possibility of use zip files - if I decide to implement it - of course I'll submit it to github too.
We are flooding the thread. If there is an "Close Thread" button there, plese use it.

Updated: It was added dialog preview support for latest snapshot.
Before you (ggaliens) ask me: yes! I'm using a very small #we (cube) - as you suggested in post #2 (and I already tried before) - and using pst field for carry all data I need to draw it (It's all in memory).
It's really fast than creating a full #we for each update (left using full #we and right using pst+draw OpenGL):

It was used images with this dimensions: 512x512 and 2362x2362 (that is not relevant since they were converted to 384x384)
The code on the github: mv/heightmap_surface_preview

edited the resolution note below of the video.

I think after preview ...
You still want to do all the polygon creation in the DRAW routine ... always keeping just that place-holder #we{ } .
I should just try it before I comment.
I did notice that you only went maybe 333 x 333 ?
It looks good Micheus. I am excited to try it.

Yeah, try it.
