Landscapes

[Masna]

How exactly would you go about making landscapes? Do you create a grid, manipulate that grid, and place it on top of the ground? Or can you manipulate the ground in a choreography? If anyone could give me some tips that would be great.

the "ground" the is in the default chor doesn't have enough patches to make an interesting terrain.

 

Better to make a denser grid and deform it. Someone around here made a terrain wizard plugin. Perhaps someone will pop in with a link.

John, the terrain plugin works great until i tried applying wheather. However, whenever I use wheather animation master crashes and says animation master will now close. Do you know why this happens?

[johnl3d]

No but you could try a clean reinstall... which version are you using

you mean you are trying use the 'weathering' feature? I've never actually seen anyone do that. If it doesn't work it might be worth reporting as a bug to hash. If no one has used weathering in a while, then they might not actually know that it's broken.

I thought that the weathering feature was dropped ages ago. I seem to recall that it was causing problems for a lot of people back then.

What version of A:M are you using?

[Masna]

Im using version 13.0

[Masna]

A:M terraform says its built for A:M 11.0 does that mean i can use it with A:M 13.0 as well?

[Masna]

I found that its not the wheather thats the problem , its the step width and the step height, does anyone know what they do?

 

P.S. Does anyone have any links to terrain tutorials?
