Populate:Terrain updated to v1.3

Sep 10, ’11 10:11 AM

This is mainly a bug fix release. There were some issues with localized 3ds max versions and exotic viewport configurations.

I also made some improvements to the meshing algorithms.

3548 people downloaded Populate:Terrain already. Not bad for the first week. ;)

Get the update here.

Populate:Terrain released!

Sep 6, ’11 2:02 PM

Populate:Terrain is a scripted plugin for Autodesk 3ds max. It assists in creating and optimizing terrain surfaces from contour lines or from existing meshes.

The quad based output allows for easier later remodeling, for example using push/pull painting. The regular face size reduces rendering issues (GI, displacement) and you can use Turbosmooth on it. It’s also a lot nicer to look at!

Free download for 3ds max 2010 or higher.
