Title: Canyon Tutorials
Post by: skean on January 23, 2009, 09:46:24 AM
Hi guys

Wondering if anyone knew of any good tutorials for Terragen 2?

Everything I've seen so far has been quite vague or a dead link.

I'm trying to make a Realistic Canyon Model to then import into C4d to

do a fly-through.

I've read that you can import DEMs but not sure how to import them

Any suggestions woiuld help loads.

Thanks for reading.

Skean, do a search for canyons and valleys in the forums under the Discussion thread and the Files thread.  You'll find all kinds of stuff.  Using a TER file from a DEM can work.  People here have done it, but you will need to do a search to see what they did.
