tg_file_compare.py is a new Python script that can be used to quickly compare node parameters between two Terragen project files saved to disk. 

Nodes that are unique to either Terragen project, or common to both projects but have different parameter values are displayed in the "Nodes of interest" window.  When one of these nodes are selected, the "Attribute values" window will display the parameters and values for the node from each of the project files.



To download the script check out the Github repository below:

Cute. Took me a while to realize the girl is wearing a colander on her head.

Image Sharing / Blender Junk Shop

The Junk Shop demo scene.
The context behind doing this was that I did a conversion of the scene for the BlendertoArnold plugin so out of curiosity I wondered if TG could make this scene look good despite it being rather unconventional for this software.
For the hair I meshed the strands and exported the hair mesh out of Blender, it was 2GB just by itself.
Lighting is as close as I could get it before I got bored and too annoyed by the moving and adjusting of the individual lights (the original scene has a lot of lights).
Shading was surprisingly nice as it created all surface shaders where I just needed to search and plugin the maps without too much trouble. Found out there was a glass shader with this scene xd

Overall I think it did pretty well. Glass is a particular pain point for the renderer, it takes much more time than anything else.

Did 3 sets of 2 cameras: 1 set on standard renderer with raytracing and deferred shading (avg 40 min render time), 1 set on pathtracing mode (avg 4 hour render time), and then a 3rd set for fun with just the standard renderer but no raytracing and deferred shading (avg 30 min render time).

With alligators that big, I'd want a house on stilts too.

You may find this interesting. Heavy labour!

I was griping about mowing the grass today. After seeing this I'll just be quiet...

Wow -- that's hard work. From the looks of those slings they're using this wasn't unusual. I hope they made it to their destination and found a horse!
