What's this?
A whole region terrain editor for Second Life.
Check on some screen shots.
Tell me more.
If you own a private island in Second Life, you can download a region's terrain as a file. Backhoe reads those files and gives you the tools to terra-form the entire region at once. Later, you can upload the edited file back to Second Life and your whole region will be changed.
How do I get it?
It's free. Just download from the links at left. Also, it's open source. You can get the source code and recompile it if you want.
What do I need to run it?
A Macintosh running Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
How about a manual?
The application includes help, though admittedly paltry at this point. You can read it on-line: Backhoe Help.
