Can cesium-terrain-server serve quantized-mesh tiles? #5

Hello, I've been using cesium-terrain-server to serve my height-map tiles that i created with cesium-terain-builder and it worked really fine.. However, now I would like to try improve performance and quality and use quantized-mesh-tiles instead of height map tiles. I understand that with cesium-terrain-builder it's not possible at the moment to create quantized-mesh-tiles but I wonder if cesium-terrain-server could serve those type of tiles (in case i already had them) ?

I read somewhere that quantized-mesh tiles follows the same tile structure as heightmap tiles but I am still not sure if it makes difference for cesium-terrain-server.

Thanks

You can use the cesium-terrain-server for serving gzipped quantized-mesh tiles.

@ipasic You were using .tif tiles with cesium-terrain-server ?

@stefanstojke can you serve quantized-mesh tiles in the .mbtiles format?

@alexbeeston I am not sure about .mbtiles format. I suppose it is possible, but I never use it this way.
