Thanks, and your answer about the seamless edges in my other question kind of makes my choice here easier. If you’re going to limit the seamless edges to 4 or 8k (8k, please!), then I’ll need to break the overall terrain in half with 2 6k terrains. That actually works perfectly, since I have a ‘sea’ ring in the middle, and it’ll be super easy to fix that seam in Blender. To answer your other question, I’m going to have 3 or 4 biome rings on each side, with the sea in the middle. I’m still…

I took the time to read through the guide. It was really interesting to read. In some places, I had to have it translated into German, but that's no longer a problem these days, unlike a few years ago when the whole text was nonsense. 😄

Good question 🙂 I think it mainly depends on how complex your biomes are going to be and how many different biomes you plan to create. It can also help to work with multiple Biome Layers rather than just one, as this gives you more flexibility. If you are drawing the biomes manually, this may require a bit more work, but it usually leads to better results. Personally, I haven’t created a terrain of that scale with a large number of biomes yet, so I’m also quite curious to see which approach…

Hi :) We actually discussed this earlier this week within the team as well. At the moment, our conclusion is that if we decide to bring back the Seamless option, it would likely be limited to terrain sizes up to 4K or possibly 8K. We’re still evaluating the best approach, so the final decision hasn’t been made yet.

I'm wondering what the best practice is for a large terrain with multiple biomes. Is it best to create a single large terrain with the multiple biomes, or create each one separately and combine them in Blender or in-engine? For example, the terrain I'm trying to build right now is a 12kmx12km grid with the biomes in vertical stripes that will be wrapped into a cylinder in Blender, and then cut into tiles in Blender and exported as fxb files for use in Unreal. I'm just wondering if I should…

Hi team, I know this was previous asked in the Discord, but are you still planning on bringing back the seamless edges feature from the old versions this year? I'm asking because I'm working on a game set in an O'Neill cylinder, and trying to line the edges up manually is virtually impossible. Thanks for setting up the forum and Reddit as well! Its good to be getting things off techbro apps and back onto the open web!

🚀 New on our Website: Terrain Guides We’ve just launched a new Guides section on the World Creator website! This area will feature in-depth technical articles covering the fundamentals and advanced topics of digital terrain creation. Our goal is to build a growing knowledge hub for everything related to terrains — including topics such as: • Heightmaps • Terrain mesh topology • Terrain texturing & splatmaps • Procedural terrain generation • Object scattering and ecosystems • Creating Unity…
