Title: Textures
Post by: Canning_s on November 14, 2010, 07:53:22 PM
I am currently creating computer games.

I am using the height maps for my terrain created in Terragen 2. What I am after is a texture to apply to my terrain.

Here is an example of what I am looking for:

Can I create textures in Terragen 2 for my landscapes that are similar to my example? Basically I would like the texture to change color depending on the height of the terrain and then apply it within my game.

I can't say I know what to tell you exactly, but the reason for that is that there might be a few ways to do it and it also means you already need to have been working on it to tell us what you've tried.  This forum is helpful, but it mostly helps with exact situations within the program and not the "how-do-I-do this" type of scenarios.  Sometimes how something is done is quite complicated, especially without a present working understanding of what you want to do.

What have you tried?

There are ways to control colors and displacements based upon heights.
