Hi, this is my first post here and as such, I'm new to TG. I'm having some difficulties
figuring TG3. I understand that renderers/animation applications are complex beasts.
I have Rhino and relatively speaking, it's less complicated than TG3 (understandably).
Recently, I wanted to create a 3D world and decided to look for some World generating
applications. I found a few and then came across TG3. I think this is exactly what I need.
However, I do need a lot of help with this 'generate a 3D world' idea.
1) The documentation/wiki mentions TG2. The "QuickStart" from
http://www.planetside.co.uk/wiki/index.php?title=Quick_Start is confusing me. I'm stuck on #7. (Where is this Add Layer
above node list?) Then I look at "Creating your first scene" on that same page, and it mentions
TG2. Opening TG3, I get nothing like what is shown in the "Creating your first scene" pdf.
What I have in TG3 is a mountainous region. Do I delete everything in that node view?
2) While i have a general 2D map done, it isn't complete. It only has one land mass and a
few lakes. I'd like to translate that into 3D. What should I do first? (Aside for learn TG3
basics?)
3) I know this may sound like the '80s/90s', but is there a manual for TG3?
Thanks for your patience.
Edmund
