Couple months of development suddendly stretched to almost a year. I do apologize for this huge delay.
Major update has been released:
- Increased level of details;
- Added new visual style, 'Nuclear Winter';
- Changed gameplay process, old version is still available in settings menu;
- Added map editor for editing building parameters such as type, height and color;
- Improved forest rendering performance;
- Optimized geodata format. Depending on territory, it can save up to 20% of disk space. This change will be applied on next geodata update.
- Reworked sound design, added soundtrack;
- Added automatically shown street names (this feature can be disabled in settings menu);
- Fixed unability to use SSAO shadows.

Source CodeAs I promised in early development stages, source code of OpenStreetMap-based 3D world has been released under free license. It's designed for mass planet processing, but can be useful for developers.

Now, by default, values are filtered, and there is an option in settings menu to disable this feature.Export 3D world model to fileAn exporter tool has been added. You can choose any area and save generated 3D geometry to .ply or .obj files.
