Title: Sample of an animation using Terragen 2 Free Edition
Post by: jbest on August 29, 2010, 10:55:16 PM
This is, believe it or not, a sample of an animation I'm doing using Terragen 2 Free Edition.  :o I hope people can figure out how I'm doing it. Terragen 2 crashed while I was working on it so I'll finish it in a few days. It is quite low quality but I didn't have a huge amount of time to work on it. This video is only 3 seconds long but about 100 pictures and, as I said, just a sample of the finished thing.

Comments appreciated.

Yup Kadri, you got it  :)

It is definitely more time consuming than the full version since you have to manually make each frame! :o

Ghehe, the time being invested in making an animation this way already exceeds the $100 extra for the animation-module :P
Nicely done though :)

Thanks. When I have the time I'll finish it with higher quality.

If you are on windows you can use AutoIt (http://www.autoitscript.com) to control TG2.

Cool!
What does this program do? This may be a dumb question.
