Terranim8or Distortion: How to?
« on: March 01, 2014, 02:40:59 am »

One of my goals is to make a Myst-esque island. One idea I had to make things slightly easier on myself was to make some trees in Anim8or and then use the random distortion feature in Terranim8or to add, well, some random, hopefully organic looking, distortion, so I don't have to individually model every single tree from scratch. Still, I can't seem to grok how to do this. Little help, guys and gals, oh ye sages of greater knowledge?

I take it you mean the Noise Modifier plugin? Select the mesh, go to Plugins->NoiseModifier, enter the parameters, hit OK. If it's what you want, hit Yes.

It's unfortunate about Leslie's site. Google has it cached, but no images. Might be hard to recover unless Leslie has a spare.

Dang, does anyone have that plug-in saved? I got the base program, but not that file.

Attached is all I have

[edit]I guess I should mention Kubajzz's Deform script also. May or may not do the trick as well.

I restored the terranim8or site, I tried to get Leslie before I changed hosts. I get a warning trying to access the site with Bit Defender and I was reluctant to restore it.  I have it up for now, but I cannot guarantee the safety of it.
