hey dow do you guys get wataer in terragan [edit] nvm man this is a fun program [edit] how do you get the water to look that smooth? mines all...blocky..
thats pretty good, but what i would try doing is making the mountains/hills more turrain, and play with the clouds. clouds ALWAYS give your picture a more sexxy thrill...
well im on a 2.53 ghz machine with 768 ddr ram, and a g-fx 5500, yet it went against my rule against Nvidia's but hey what the heck i got it from my buddy for free[edit] can anyone host my sig?
hmm, to whoever asked about the water being blocky: try checking your render settings and turn them as high as you can..
most of my images in my thread, prolly no ones looks at 0.o, took 20 mins on a 2ghz... the problem is, the program works purely off your processor, since no graphic hardware is used. so you could have a radeon 98 million and still get the same render times. i made an animation once, it took 23 hours and 51 minutes to complete. it was a 800 mb file when raw, then i shrunk it to 2 mb, added music and now its 4 mb...its about 12 sec long.... ill find it somewhere and rehost it for ya.
This is my from my 2nd try in terragen. Well, auctually, its my first try, just with the land removed.
The file is huge, just like the resolution on it, so ill provide it as a link: <a href='http://home.comcast.net/~stephentmontgomery/Terragen1-Sun.PNG' target='_blank'>Here</a>
The sun inbetween the clouds was not intended, but it looks sweet.
Also, because I messed with EVERY setting in terragen and jacked up the quality to the maximum that the unregested version allows it took 2.5 Hours to render on my P4 @ 2.8GHz.

i just got into this and i have a couple questions, the main one, is how do you make different parts of the land have different types of land, like the mountain top snowy but the bottom rocky/grass ?
and @ottodestruct , how do you modify land like that to make canyons and stuff ?
heres my try <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

aye thanks, hardest part to do is keeping the terran the height you want :/ ... so many bumps and stuff <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif' /><!--endemo-->
heres just another one. makes you think oreo. still cant fix the clouds in this with or without psp. I heard of ways to fix them by lessining the detail and darkening but not sure... still have to try it. Oh! When you choose the color for your terrain or child you go to the advanced distribution tab and change the min./max. altitude to whatever you want as to how high or low.
