Hi, is the project still alive #12

Open Julien-laville opened 8 years ago

@severak Hello, from France, I work at Qwant.com, a european search engine and I plan to use your render engine for our future map service.

Is the project still alive ? We'll try to use it for a large scale tile generator and keep you informed.

Hi. Nice to see somebody interested.

Project is suspended for now. I am working on other projects.

I don't recommend you to use Lunarender in production, because three important things are missing:

  1. multipolygon support (aka ability to render polygons with holes)
  2. tile-by-tile rendering (it currently reads whole file at once and render it into one image)
  3. text on paths (aka ability to draw street labels)

I would like to implement these, but i am not able to tell you in which century it will be done. :-D

I use mapbox studio for creating custom map layers for my personal projects.

Feel free to ask more questions.
