Also, we have added color variation possibilities which is very usefull for vegetation. The entire system got extremely improved - thousand of plants in real-time. Think of it like painting tons of Plants easily directly on your terrain - of course we will support additional selectors during the paint operation. We are now heading for the Object Placement feature - you will be able to place / rotate / scale individual objects but also directly paint the placing of each object (using brushes) on your terrain - no Areas needed for that operation. The distribution also has been adapted to each Tab inside World Creator. So it is a highly flexible import for your own custom assets. Models can be adjusted in LOD, distance view, billboard, scale, and you also can apply textures to each subset. You will be able to import textures, models and details. Here is the latest announcement: "The Media Library has been finished today.

There is a platform you can get invoved with called "Discord"-it reminds me a little of Steam- that allows for interaction and forums, updates, etc of the WC progress and others' projects. I am pretty excited about the next release which will be soon.hopefully within the year. I exported as an 8bt Tiff and also as a png. The first 2 are made in WC2 and I exported the 2nd terrain into Bryce and did a quick render. I am by no means an expert, I have plenty to learn. So I tried exporting some terrains made in World Creator 2 (granted I am using the RC 14 release as of September) I also wanted to share some quick renders with World creator 2. But in some cases (for example, for the distant plan) it can be very useful. this is not a good idea in terms of the huge size of the texture and memory space. You can also export a color height map in BMP, JPG, PNG format, which can be converted to shades of gray.Īnd (this thought just came into my mind) a color height map can be converted to a texture in Photoshop, highlighting the corresponding colors and replacing them with a texture using a mask. However, it cannot be loaded into the TE in any known manner. "Tiff 16 bit greyscale (displacement, Vue proc.)". When exporting terrain from GeoControl2, you can choose I'll see if GIMP has the ability to fix it. I do recall exporting a TIFF from WC but Bryce couldn't import it and the tag 258 error message came up.

#Terragen export heightmap software#
I'm going to check out the World Creator overviews on Steam to get a better sense on how the software works. 9 that he wanted tweaked out as well.Horo - You're correct, GeoControl Demo version UI is a bit different than World Creator. Hopefully Matt gets the LWO2 format working with it in the next few weeks along with some other little bug fixes that were still in.

#Terragen export heightmap install#
9 update over your 8.68 and then install 8.68 again to a different directory, that’s using Windows XP and YMMV with other Windows versions…I think XP seems to be better about DLLs than previous Windows versions, so you could try that if you want to have both and be able to export your terrains. Someone I noticed on the TG list mentioned having both versions installed. Cloud reflections, more advanced surfacing features, shadow fixes, and some other things like foam for your water, bigger sky sizes than 10,000, much better terrain sculpting if you need/want to do that from within TG, but as many of us love World Machine, many of us may not need to use that very much…hehe Clouds in 3D look much better to me (especially with around a 30 depth to them) but maybe that’s just me. 9, first and most importantly is the MASSIVELY faster rendering time as it starts from the front and works its way back. There are some interesting changes in version. I have thought about taking a BMP image of the terrain or something and editing it into multiple parts that are 257X257 and then letting TG export each and then you could stitch them in TG…but it would probably be just about as easy to use the BMP file to displace a mesh in Layout and save the displaced mesh as a Save Transformed Object and then you’d have your terrain for editing in Modeler. No way around it easily (I have some ideas), but even at a 257X257 terrain which is the smallest you use in Terragen, you will only get 256X256 points (one line stripped off the end) with your terrain. You are not always just getting 1/4 of the terrain, you are getting from a starting X/Z position and moving across the terrain in a set pattern until it reaches the max points per object in the old LW version per object. There was someone who was working on an export option for the new LW format, but nothing has ever been released. The original Terragen program does export to the old LW format.
