Quote - Like I told you and demonstrated in another thread, in Vue7 there is no difference between standard and procedural terrains in what concerns detail, unlike what you say in your deviantart page. If you create a 4096x4096 standard terrain and use a 4096x4096 16bit tiff map, you get exactly the same result as if you use the same map with a procedural terrain. This was the thread:

Furthermore, with Vue7, the 1.01 trick is no longer necessary, as far as I know (at least I don't see any artifacts with 1.0 scale).

In a couple of days I will post a render which shows:
a) the dramatic difference between standard and procedural terrain resolution and...
b) the ghastly side artifacts which disfigure procedural terrains unless you shove them under the rug with the scaling trick.

Dear Rutra, YOU are one of the reasons that made me decide to leave the Vue community. Your faithfulleness to the True Cause is just unbareable for someone who values rationality and truth.

I will only add in the very near future the recipy for creating clay renders in Vue (a standard 2 minute task on any other renderer, a gruesome trial and error activity on Vue) and then I will simply remove Vue forum from the list of the forums I visit here on Renderosity.

Bye... working to convert into a adieu as soon as possible.
