landscape generator in ubuntu
I want to install a landscape generator, I looked:
- Instant Terra
- VUE
- Terragen
- World Creator
- World Machine
- Gaea
and noticed that they all work in Windows.
I found a FlowScape (more a toy) and picogen (a fairly old generator), they seemed to me not quite suitable.
Are there modern terrain generators in Ubuntu ??
Solution 1:
Blender is the way, at the moment. This software evolved a lot during the last years, and there are plugins for a lot of things. It also has a huge potential to do a lot of things procedurally (algorithms), even with Python.
Take a look at this tutorial, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrMee2gcS20
Check this addon called ANT, for Blender: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/addons/add_mesh/ant_landscape.html
And check this addon called Dynamic Sky, for Blender: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/addons/lighting/dynamic_sky.html
I'm a big fan of Terragen, I used Vue and Mojoworld as well.
