We’re putting together a few simple terrain pieces for the alpha, here is a little sample of ’skrylep’ trees. We have high poly and low poly versions of them, so that people can choose the level of detail they want.

After playing with a few of the basic features of Virtual Tabletop, we decided to toss in a feature to assist in those games that need to line up your troops (pretty much all ancients and up to near modern games). So, now in VT when you move a model over another model, it will attempt to dress with it, on the back, front or sides.
Its a nice start to some more advanced features that we’ll have later on in beta. In this screenshot, the paper model in the rear is being moved up against the one in front (and some debugging info is shown there too).
We’re officially gathering players who want to test out some of the features of Virtual Tabletop. In this test build, a few features won’t be available (network play) for a while longer, but getting in on at this level will give you the chance to test the network play when its ready.
So, if you’re wanting to jump into Virtual Tabletop to make your own models and check it out, you can email micah@racingspidergames.com. We’ll be including the paper model maker too, so if you can get a 2d version of any model, you can put it on the board.
Once we have enough people and the package is ready to go, we’ll send out the download information. You don’t have to be able to make 3d models to be a tester, just give some feedback.
