Trying for some riverside rocks. Anyone have a suggestion for making smooth fake stones that aren't pointy on one end?
Not really, as it's pretty hard to get them really smooth. Another way would be to displace perlin spots up first, then add a small patch compute normal and displace again (normal and/or lateral). And yet another way is using a pop[ of poly spheres.
Displaced high poly spheres work great, just take up some RAM..
