Hello everyone, could someone provide me with a terrain editor using the latest AppGameKit functions and updates so I can get a feel for how to start making my terrain editor?

In the examples provided with the product (In the IDE select Tools/Install additional files) there is a folder called "Terrain" that has an example of using the heightmap commands.

I personally would modify the image and re-generate the mesh because CreateObjectFromHeightMap() creates a special type of mesh that loading from disk would take ages.

If you want to modify a mesh then I would look at the following commands.
CreateMemblockFromObjectMesh()
and
SetObjectMeshFromMemblock()

Remember that you will need to manually save the mesh to one of the supported 3D formats like .obj .fbx .x etc

This might help as well

there is a couple of examples here https://forum.thegamecreators.com/thread/222027
or you could use this method which is only suitable for smaller maps
