Hi all! I'm a junior in School of Visual Arts computer art department. Right now I'm doing research for my thesis and I think Vue is going to help me flush out my ideas a lot. I am mostly an animator, but I am not too bad at modeling. I work mostly with Maya, I tried 3Dsmax and Zbrush very briefly. I experimented with Vue a little bit and created a beach scene. I am unable to make the terrain (standard terrain with some modification to make it flat) smooth. There are always these little bump/spikes that pop up. I tried doing some decay on it to get rid of the bumps, but now I'm left with many waveform-like marks on the beach. How do you make a piece of terrain completely smooth? Also, would it be possible to import a terrain model from Zbrush? Modeling in Zbrush give more control and is much easier than editing in the terrain editor. Lastly, please recommend any tutorials that you think might help a beginner like me! Thank you!
