Landscapes for planet landings

Post by billyb »

Has anyone heard of Terragen? It's free for non-commercial use and creates AMAZINGLY real landscapes. Very crisp that look much better than the vacation photos in VS.

Question for the developers: Is there a need for more landscapes, or just base interiors? If so, i remember using Terragen a few years back and it was pretty easy to get great results. Happy to contribute if it'll be used.

Check out some samples:

Ah, good old terragen. Looks like sky and atmospheric rendering has improved since I last used it.

I think we're more in need of bases than landscapes... but i guess it can't hurt to have a few generics.

What would be cool is if we could use its generative terrain algorithms in VS, for planetary flight. :D
