Hi,

Ok, I had a file to render to help make my question clear, but somethings not working with it. Anyway, my question is, I have a some what flat-ish terrain, through out the terrain are what look like drumlins. I like every thing about the image, but for one hill. I would like to use an image map to make the hill more or less go away. Can it be done, and how?

Use a painted shader or simple shape over that hill and add this to a displacement shader's function input. Set it to some minus figure and your hill will sink into the ground.

You could try a Paint Shader...Paint the hill in top view with a big enough brush to cover the whole thing, then load a Surface layer, disable Colour, and then load the Paint shader into the Displacement Tab's Displacement function field and set Displacement multiplier to a large-ish negative number -100 for example. That may be too much or not enough but the number to adjust is the multiplier.
That's what I'd try......

Hi Dune. Thanks for the file. I haven't had a chance to look at it yet, but I wanted to make sure and acknowledge your help. I'll let you know if I can understand it.
