Quote - Been working on some procedural textures and mostly on trying to find a good fractal function which scales well both close up and in the distance. Here's a test of a not yet finished mountain material. The top image shows 3 terrains, one up close, and the other 2 in the distance. The bottom picture shows the relative scale of each terrain in the scene. > Quote - When I viewed the first image I thought the terrain's were all relatively close in size, but then I saw the second image and there is a huge size difference, so if you are trying to find a good material which scales both close up and in the distance I think you have done a good job. So are you using the function Editor exclusively for this material or an image and the Function Editor? So what's the trick in making the material look good on different sized terrains? My terrain materials always need to be scaled appropriate to their terrain size.
