Title: Planet Subdivision
Post by: szmatefy on May 29, 2023, 09:14:27 AM
Hey folks,

I am given a Terragen project file where I have to adjust the clouds to have a clear sky around the moon. I noticed the moon is quite faceted.

It's a planet added to the scene, with high res displacement and image textures.

Render setting is micropolygon detail 0.8, Antialias 16
Ray detail region is detail in camera, and I have a spherical camera

I do not want to rebuild the scene from scratch, because I have to make the sky clearance only.

Could you give some advise how to increase the resolution of the planet?

Hi szmatefy,

First, can you tell us if you're looking at the rendered image in Terragen's Render View?  Make sure the view is set to 100% and not "Best fit".  If that doesn't clear it up, use a 2d paint program or compositing package to view the image, just to rule out if the problem is in the rendered image or viewing application.
