Terragen Discussion / User Manual TG 4

Does anyone know of a detailed user manual for Terragen 4?  Watching the videos is tedious with the need to start, stop, rewind.....

Sadly no. I had planned to but it wasn't needed. It is on my list of things to do!

Cool render! Clouds are terrific too. Did you use TG SKY paint?

Terragen Support / Exporting an FBX camera out an...
Last post by SamDB - February 08, 2025, 02:13:46 AM
Hello, I have a space scene where the camera moves million of miles.

I need to scale this movement down as it's not viable to have this movement in Maya/NukeX. Realistically, i need the to scale the millions of miles to a couple of metres.

I have tried exporting the camera and exporting an FBX scene where I can scale the camera down, however this hasn't worked.

I have tried all of the different scale factors when exporting a camera out but the distance the camera moves is always the same. Does anyone have any experience with this?

I have attached pics of the camera export settings in Terragen and the Camera end position in Maya to give a better perspective.

It's getting somewhere. You could try multiplying by a perlin 3D, and in another line change the block size (transform shader) and multiply that by the inverted Perlin 3D, then combine again (mix shader). Or use a mix shader and have a PF (or perlin 3D) as mix controller, either stretched or not.
Perhaps multiplying by a larger sinus will also break the regularity. And you could combine with a fake stone shader for more variation. Or warp on a smaller scale.

Yes, it becomes very hard indeed. But it can be softened and broken up. In this example rendering it is very hard and regular, like manmade objects. Using the linear step (instead of smooth step) make the individual outcrops get a beveled look of course, which is not very natural. And my workspace is a tangled mess as usual:-)

But I wonder if there is some aternative method to the PF-method you proposed? It would be practical if I could define an interval using blue nodes perhaps?
