Terragen Mountain Snow Tour

This was an attempt at a more atmospheric snowy landscape.

Music is from Road to Perdition.

The camera underpan towards the end was a bug in the camera path, but I kept it in anyway.

How do you make it so that there is some snow present on the stone surface layers? I want to make a snow mtn, but not have it predominately white.

I use terragen 2.

@LordTyrannus You set up the snow shader layer as a child to the stone shader layer, and set distribution options such as coverage\breaup, altitude and slope.

@Raistlen007

I'm a complete noob at Terragen 2 how exactly do I set it as a child?

[Raistlen007]

@LordTyrannus At the top of the shader screen, above the shader list are two buttons: "Add layer" and "Add child layer"

[Raistlen007]

Yeah, or something.

hmm...ok...so i guess i will just have to export it as a bunch of images and string them together in After effects or something?

[Raistlen007]

Right now, no. It is a planned feature and it is supposed to be included at a later date (at no extra cost)

awesome thanks! ok last question :)...if i buy terragen 2 with animation...after i create my landscape and make the camera motion path...when it comes to exporting will i be able to export to like an mpeg 4 or avi?

[Raistlen007]

with animation, yes. it has camera pathing abilities.

if i buy terragen 2 with animation will it allow me to make the camera weave through mountains and stuff? or will i need another software 4 that?
