Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Oct 04 4:27 pm)
Since each of those is an island [or a continent] you could make them
in Poser, with a little help from a paint program.
Start with a good map of the area that shows the land in relief (not colored
to reflect political boundaries.) Use the 'replace colors' feature in PaintShop
to replace the ocean with black.
Save the image at this point to use as the texture map.
Apply it to a Square in Poser.
Then make a greyscale copy of the image, and apply this as a
displacement map to the Square. (Note: If you want true relief,
you might have to do some lassoing and inverting of colors,
since the typical relief map uses a darker color for higher
altitude, and Poser wants lighter color for higher displacement.)
Then take a Box, make it blue and slightly transparent. This is the ocean.
Scale and move the ocean so that the 'land' pops up from the 'water'.
Since displacement doesn't show in the preview, this will take a bit
of fiddling and rendering!

You may download my free models of Australia at http://gregsandor.tripod.com/Terrain/Australia.htm
Open them in Terragen, reduce the size, and export as .obj if you want to use in Poser.

I am after some 3D models of countries particulary New Zealand, Australia & Singapore anyone any suggestions where I can find them.
Thanks in anticipation.
