Title: Terragen Cube Tutorial
Post by: RMR_punkerjeffy on May 20, 2005, 05:20:38 AM
I remember a while ago O_R or someone made a tutorial for making cubes in terragen.  I used to know how but can't remember the parameters to put in to get the images right.  If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great.

Actually i think i need a little more help.  I set up the parameters as 128 128 0 with no fixed height above surface for cam position and the same for target position with zoom set to 1 with orthagraphic unchecked yet im getting some of my ground cut off.  Any tips?

I put my altitude at 1 also, with the fixed height checked. Depending on the track though, you can change that and the sky size to adjust your horizon line.  Also make sure you have the render land checked too. :P

check maui's site. Last I looked, the sky tut wasn't on there anymore for some reason (hence why I made that quick reference pic for myself).
