Title: Crater Shader Peculiarity
Post by: j meyer on January 18, 2008, 05:15:51 PM
Last night i came across a peculiar behaviour of the crater
shader.Instead of a nice little knoll i got what you can see
in pic #1,a trefoil kind of thing.After removing anything
without loosing the effect it looked like in pic#2.
Then i exited TG2 and restarted it and began to rebuild the
node set up to see if it could be reproduced,but at first i
just got a single knoll only.After pressing the random seed
button of the fractal terrain a few times it showed up again
though.Pic#3.
I attach the rebuilt tgd so you can play with it,if you like.

The top picture almost looks like lilypads.

Yep,petrified lilypads are just a few tweaks away. ;D


No ideas,speculations or even explanations?
