Title: Perlin Billows Lines in 2.4
Post by: elipsis1 on May 10, 2012, 08:23:09 PM
Hello guys,

I was wondering if there is an easier way to get rid of the hard straight lines in that seem to occur when using perlin billows and the other types?

I remember someone telling me I could assign a warp shader with small x/y shifts or something, but I was wondering if something was built in now to address that?

Also, if I create a second power fractal terrain, and have a very small feature size, will that terrain lay "on top of" the other one?  Or will it simply just intersect it and poke through where the y values differ?

Thanks in advance for any replies or help :)

Hi,

The lines are an intrinsic part of those patterns. There haven't been changes which change that. This thread, which you're probably familiar with :-), mentions some ways around it:

Regarding the terrains, it will lay on top.
