Up to date Terrain Editor?

[drsly]

I'm looking for a tool to generate heightmap based terrain (I'm using Ogre 1.9).

So far I have tried (from the list at http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-ind ... CC%20Tools):

Artifex Terra - several attempts made to download file from their website, each time the download does not complete.
PnP TerrainCreator - seems like a good tool, can us it to generate terrain, excellent documentation, but it crashes when exporting alphamap. Their forum seems dead since 2010.
Ogitor - website down? Google found a download link at SourceForge, I have a file called Ogitor_0_5_Snapshot_rev724.zip, crash at startup due to missing "../Media/packs/OgreCore.zip", where can I get this file?

So frustrated right now I'm thinking of building my own tool, that's not something I want to spend time on. Can anyone recommend something that's up to date, well documented, easy to use?

I should mention I prefer something free / open source, with basic editing features (either Windows / Linux platform).

Thank you

My current project uses the terrain component, Ogre 1.10, and Ogitor to edit scenes and the terrain. It's not perfect by any means, but it should work for you. Repository is here: https://bitbucket.org/ogitor/ogitor

You can find a current Ogitor version here. If you get an error message about a missing dxcompiler DLL, just open plugins.cfg and delete the line with the DX11 plugin.

Oh nice! I didn't realize you prebuilt Ogitor as well. Good on you, man!
