Hello
Is there a video tutorial that walks through rendering out an animation from within Terragen 3 or 4?
I have the pro version
I get the basics of how to keyframe but I am seeing videos of earlier versions of the software that show buttons that don't appear, at least for me, in the more recent versions.
Regards,
Tudor

What buttons are you not seeing? Rendering out animations is quite simple. Just go to the Seqence/Output tab, setup the output file names, set your frame range, and then press Render Sequence. That's the basics. Let us know what more specific questions or issues you have.

Hi Oshyan or anyone else who minds taking a look.
I haven't had a chance to go back and look at this until now.
I'm running a professional version of T3

Am I supposed to be looking for a tab alongside renderers / cameras?
I'm not seeing anything at all that looks like a sequence/output tab.
Am I just blind/looking in the wrong place?

That looks weird, but it's Mac I see, and I for one can't help you there.

The UI looks different in the Mac version as Ulco said, but as far as I can see there's the quality button with the two arrows up and down. If you use these arrows, does a sequence/output menu show up?

Tudor

wow... I have no idea how I missed that.
Seems blatantly obvious now that you've pointed it out.
Thank you,
Tudor

You're welcome. I'm glad I could be of help.

Indeed, the Mac UI is different, it uses a dropdown list instead of tabs.

That I would say is a weakness of the Mac version. Tabs feel quicker and more intuitive to me.
