Populate:Terrain

36 votes

Populate:Terrain 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.

This script allows you to collapse changes to an object but maintain the morpher modifiers with its data intact.

Works on single objects and only one morpher modifier.

1 vote

Expose Table is a helper object which can load a CSV file and expose its columns as tracks that you can use copy-paste or use for parameter wiring and anywhere you would use a controller.
