I put my adobe houses on another hilltop and played a little with the new (alpha) cloud settings (the exact working still eludes me, though). The paths are voronoi. Ah, and you'll have to darken your room to properly see this.

Very nice work. I assume you're getting the paths by distorting the vector space you're feeding into the voronoi function? Great detail and realism overall.

very nice work:)
do you model the buildings yourself? if so i dont think populating builings on the hillside would be the best idea I myself would export that section of terrain and model my houses on the 3dmodel of the terrain their you could add proper streets and walls etc then import the model into tg2 and sit it back ontop of the procedural terrain:)

clouds look gooood i thought they were a photo at first lol

Hi

The paths are an excellent touch of realism!

Very nice clouds!
The buildings and the whole idea are well executed.
Cool work Ulco :)

Nice render , Dune! I especially like the clouds :)

Looks very European. By that I mean, built back when you had to worry about the guys 30 miles away coming to raid your village. Building on the hills also keep the best, flatter land for agriculture.

I like the lighting very much. Another very good render Ulco! I like the commissioned renders better though.

Wow, the sky is *epic*! The feathered clouds... I've seldom seen anything like that done successfully in TG. Great work.

The houses could maybe use some more variation, I think their repetition is the only thing that spoils this image a little for me. The paths are great though, nice subtle touch.

@wetbanana: Yes, I do model them myself, since a couple of months. This is just a very simple 'block'. And you're right about sitting them on the hill procedurally isn't perfect. But this is just all 'quick and dirty' playing around. I don't want to spend too much time here. If it were for a commission I would do it differently.

The sky was just luck. I haven't touched the new settings really, up till a few days ago.

Here's the night version. I've built a new model now, which will be featured in another render.

Re the daytime version - outstanding lighting and surfacing - and those clouds  :o

I like the night time version. Looks like a set for a Christmas movie.
