Title: Is World Machine 2 or Geo Control 2 Useful with Terragen 2
Post by: cadmar on May 01, 2013, 07:05:17 PM
Hi all,

Is World Machine 2 or Geo Control 2 useful in using with Terragen 2? IF yes, which program is the better one, the most useful one. Which of these two programs have the less steep learning curve?

Finally, which files can be made in these programs & imported into Terragen 2. I know .ter files can be made, are there others, like textures & so on.

Thank you

YES!
Try them both out, they are both useful. Both can export TER files and various bitmap formats both 8 and 32 bit so there is plenty of opportunity for further editing.

Here's an example of a downloadable scene made with Terragen + WorldMachine:

World Machine has a similar node based approach, so if you're familiar with Terragen it should be easier to get up and running.
