Quote - I saw this advertised in the latest Yurdigital newsletter and am toying with the idea of buying a copy. As I understand it, the program generates Metanodes to be used in Vue. I really have no experience working with separate Metanodes but a PDF comes with it as well as some videos so maybe I dare be adventurous.
Has anyone used this program and if so, what are your thoughts?
Are you referring to "Easy Terrain v2" which is made by Cesium55 ? If so, it does not generate metanodes. It IS a metanode for procedural terrain generation. It is not a separate program. It is used inside of Vue. The node is simply placed between the position input and altitude output in the function editor. I have the previous version and it is very good. It makes terrain generation faster and easier in Vue because it allows you to just play with a few parameters to produce a variety of terrain forms. The new version has more options. If you get your money's worth out of it will depend on how often you make complex procedural terrains from scratch. If you do that frequently it will be worth it.
