Dear forum community, we have been anticipating this moment for a long time and now at last we are able to announce our brand new Terragen product! Read below
for details. Afterward you might want to
check out our FAQ
(especially if you have any questions; please post them there and not in this thread, if not already answered), or feel free to comment more generally below.
Announcing Terragen 3 Professional
Today we are proud to announce the introduction of a new, professionally-oriented product focused on the needs of visual effects production for film and broadcast, game asset development, architectural visualization, and print. Developed with direct feedback from visual effects vendors using Terragen in major film and TV projects, Terragen 3 Professional includes many new features and performance enhancements to meet the needs of deadline-driven projects. A Linux render node will also be available with Terragen 3 Professional, making integration with existing Linux render farms possible for the first time.
Feature Highlights
Comprehensive layer and render element output
Enhanced 3D preview
New ultra fast, high detail Global Illumination mode
Significantly improved population control including per-instance editing and color variation
Support for FBX and other industry-standard data interchange formats
Significant performance enhancements for localized cloud rendering
Object mesh deformation
Content library for organizing and quickly accessing scene files, objects, and textures
Enhanced DEM format and georeferencing support
New spherical camera
Depth of Field blur
Linux render node
Terragen 3 builds on the cutting-edge technology first released in Terragen 2, which has been used for visual effects in more than 20 feature films as well as numerous major TV productions, and is relied upon by many of the most respected visual effects companies. Terragen’s powerful displacement and atmospherics engines have garnered a reputation for accurate, photo realistic environments featuring detailed terrains, physically-based volumetric skies, and massive populations of instanced geometry. Planetside Software has continued to improve these core strengths for Terragen 3, producing new creative options and render capabilities, improved performance, and enhanced workflows.
Terragen 3 will be released in July, 2013. To celebrate the upcoming release of the Terragen 3 product line, we are giving away 5 licenses of Terragen 3 Professional. Just visit
