Creating a 3D map for XNA?


Is anyone aware of a nice 3D map tutorial (how to import and use the map) using XNA without any engine but not limited to an external application (like Tiled for 2D maps) ?


I did a search arund here but have'nt found anything towards xna 3d maps only 2d.


PS: I am looking for material that can be read online with no cost if possible.



I would be very interested in knowing any other contents related to this subject other then what Ricket contributed.


Best regards.

You'll want to search for tutorials on "terrain", which is the technical term for a 3D map. Also "heightmap" might return results.


Here is one possibility (notice the "Contents" section on the right bottomish): http://www.riemers.net/eng/Tutorials/XNA/Csharp/series1.php




Due to the comment that you're looking for online content which can be read: This IS an online tutorial! It can indeed be read online! When you go to the above link, look on the right side, the third section is "Contents"; in that box, look for the links under "3D Series 1: Terrain".


For example, here is one very relevant section: "Terrain from file"
