Let me introduce myself. My name is Kevin "Q" Quattro. I've been working in vfx since 1996. It's been a heck of a ride. I did a stint at Digital Domain way back in 2002. I recall a very early version of Terragen back then. It's come a long way.
We've been using Vue for quite some time here. Vue has been mostly terrible for support and the program itself rather cumbersome. Still, we managed. However, their cloud system really has stagnated. This is what had me think to look up Terragen once again. All I can say is wow! Looks fantastic!
I already have the shop very close to switching over. The clouds, terrain, and atmosphere look stunning. I have been running in to one issue with the water (lakes) that I am having difficulty over-coming. I have watched many of the YouTube videos to get up to speed (the basics) and read through many posts here. I am at a loss for what is causing this issue. The issue? Little black spots scattered over the water. I've attached an example. For simplicity I've turned everything else off and set AA to "1."
Any ideas? Thank you for your time.
