Title: Image based displacements
Post by: Gkon on August 05, 2009, 10:06:31 AM
Hi,

Are there any tutorials in this forum relating to image based displacements?
Also, there's a youtube video here:

http://www.nwdanet.com/buy-packs/details/36/7/preset-packs/canyon-and-rock-surface-pack-by-tu

- demonstrating how to paint a canyon but the video file is so small I can't follow it to see the steps.
Can someone explain this process step by step from booting up the program?

Many thanks

Image map based displacements is maybe one of the least explored ways in TG2 for displacing terrains.
Moodflow had some success with it, as well as Hannes IIRC.
A simple search for these would point you there.

The youtube video is meant for purchasers of the pack, since I demonstrate how to paint the canyon using the tgd-file I created.
So if you don't have the pack there is not much real use of it for you.
Anyhow, you can watch in fullscreen on the youtube site itself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdgTEyNWWMk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdgTEyNWWMk)
