GDC 2010: An Era of Opportunity Begins

Want to see how to visualize your environments faster and shorten your iteration cycle? Come test drive CityScape 1.8 in PixelActive's booth, #1744 (floorplan), at the Game Developer's Conference in San Francisco, March 11-13. Customers such as Volition, United Front Games, and Sidhe Interactive use CityScape to prototype and iterate quickly. Environments that used to take weeks to create can now be done in hours with CityScape. CityScape does this all with the fidelity and creativity that artists demand. Stop by our booth on the expo floor and see how CityScape can help your team on current and future titles.

CityScape 1.8 Key Feature: Power Line Tool

Power lines are usually a time consuming object to place in urban environments. Cables have to be manually connected between each post, and changes in placement takes hours of tedious work. With CityScape 1.8, you can place linear and interconnecting power line networks quickly and easily with the Power Line Tool. Connecting cables are procedurally created according to the distance between posts. You can adjust cable radius, sag, color, and other properties from the prop widget. Placing power lines is now just a click away with CityScape.
