NOTE: YOU MUST HAVE JAVA INSTALLED TO RUN LANDSCAPE STUDIO Features - * Uses a tabbed workspace, allowing the user to work on several projects at once (ala Firefox's tabbed browsing) * Terrain Application Mapping: This unique method of generation applies fractal randomness to a pre-designed heightmap based on an application map * Create your own terrain generation algorithms, importers, exporters and plugins using Java * Export to several formats including RAW, TER and JPEG, easily load into Terragen and other rendering programs * Generate terrain using various algorithms including - ridged multifractal, procedural multifractal, heterogeneous multifractal, offset square plasma fractal, hybrid additive/multiplicative multifractal, procedural fBm fractal, deposition fractal, fault fractal and Voronoi * Multiple filters including various types of erosion, gradients, spatial averaging, midpoint flip and inversion * Preview terrains in real-time when changing attributes - no more trial and error! * Preview terrains in 3D (Sample terrains produced by Matthias Blum and rendered in Terragen) |
