Title: Overhangs
Post by: EmDee1 on February 08, 2010, 04:47:53 PM
Is there a tgd-file available, just a basic one, to get started with overhangs? I want to make a scene with overhangs in it, but can't figure out where to start. Maybe an example of a simple overhang-rockstructure will clear things up for me...

Hi there are many ways do make overhangs. Here are some:

- twist & shear shader: tilts the whole terrain into a direction, which can create overhangs
- redirect shader & power fractal shader: plug the power fractal into the x and z input of the redirect shader
- power fractal with lateral displacement
- painted shader on a steep part as a blendshader for a power fractal

...

Cheers,
Frank
