But it's good anyway.

Post by: StratComm on February 28, 2003, 08:47:49 am: It looks like that grass is growing right into the water, and maybe a little beneath. I'd suggest blending in a sand strip around the water's edge to help with the transition. Otherwise, looks great :yes:

Post by: pyro-manic on February 28, 2003, 10:52:01 am: Methinks same as StratComm - the join between the grass and the water is too abrupt and steep. It needs some sort of beach or bank type thing to break it up and make it look rougher.

The snowy one's great, though.:yes: :)

Post by: Deepblue on March 03, 2003, 12:19:30 am: For the missile did you use a particle trail right?
And as far as the landscapes are concerned WAY TO FLAT!!!
Use a particle system for clouds (find a tutorial). They would look more realistic that way.
And because I can't resist...
MAX OWNS LIGHTWAVE!!! ;)

EDIT: Did you use a noise map for the mountains or did you download them cause they look 133t. :D

WTF! to flat!? There are hills/mountains all around it.

I used hypervoxels for the trail they are a volume.

I couldn't be arsed to use particles for the clouds. I already spended a day messing around with procederal layers to get the snow effect.

And next time please do resist the urge to post max is better then LW stuff

I was speaking of the clouds.
Other then the clouds I like what you have done. The snowscape especially.
EDIT: Remember you wanted the water texture that I used in my render? Do you still want it?

Post by: Darkage on March 04, 2003, 02:13:21 am: I can't remember i ever asked you, about a water texture;) Wel post it then i'll decide:) Mine has to be more reflective.
