Description

There are a lot of the new principal Vue 5 Infinite features in this image: procedural terrains, Global Illumination, ecosystems. Tools used: Vue5Inf, Poser, Painter IX (for alpha mask). How I have worked: I have created one base-proc.terrain (Simple fractal/Distribuited Patterns/Round sample), then have marked out the river on flat place among the rocks. At this point, using Painter IX, I have drawn one alpha mask for every ecosystem: plants, green, horses and riverside-rocks. In this way it's possible make ecosistems very percise. At the end I have put one alpha plane in frontside sunlight to simulate the slight clouds-shadows. Great importance and care I have reserved for ground texturing before the house. Painter IX has been very precious at the purpose, furnishing me of unpublished and powerful tools for this specific use. Credits: Alain Gracia (eolienne), Gaetano (Caboteur retextured), Svenart (Holzhausneu). Other objects by: 3DCafe (Carriage, pigs), Planet3D (Conestoga). Thanks for viewing and comments. Luigi.

I try not to use words like "wow" and "awesome" too often. But this time I have to... WOW! I drool at your terrain and texture work. I've been to places like this, and you've done an awesome job of recreating it in 3d. Alpha masks are your secret? I'll have to look into that. Thanks for making my day.

Ditto, and thanks for the tutorial comments. I was undecided about Infinite. After seeing this I'm ordering it right away.
