The trees yes, the front trunk is an asset found on the web, can't remember where exactly atm. It's been in the threads earlier.

Looks really cool, Ulco.
I think it was Quixel megascans.

[DocCharly65]

Happy new year to you Ulco and all.

Unfortunately we begun very badly already.

I feel with you and all victims of all the stupid and cowardly attacks! I am very sad to hear news like these again and again!

I hope all will be better... some day!

Yes, Quixel, thanks Hannes.

Yes unfortunately

now I see these renders....wish I knew how to cut those rivers into the terrain....(yes I'm asking)

veery nice work

I posted some basic river setup quite a while back, but it's basically a warped soft simple shape of say 20mx1000m, which acts as mask for displacement and textures. Color adjusts to adjust hardness, perhaps another broader SSS warped likewise for a valley.

I tried warping a SSS before but it remains a rectangle, cant seem to do nothing with it, either a circle elipse or a rectangle

Didn't I send you a similar setup on a FB msg Ade?

[ADE]

not sure bobby... I just cant get to grips with this ss shader

I just cant bend the dam thing

Wrong warp shader, you need the Fractal Warp at the top of the Transform/Warp shader list. Also you will likely need a Transform shader set to World after the Warp shader to move the river around. That's what Dune taught me. I find working in the top view for setup is best as you can see where the warp is moving the river and move your camera to it or with the warp shader move the river to the camera.

Errh hum... Bobby, I'm afraid that's not quite correct.

ADE - Just add a Vector Displacement Shader between the PF and the Warp Input Shader.
If the SS shaders long side stretches along the Z axis you have to use the X axis multiplier
of the Vdisp shader to warp it.(So x-1;y-0;z-0)


Edit: Didn't see your attachment before I posted Bobby. Sorry.
