Hi, first off, I’m brand new here and fairly new to WM. But I’m excited about what it can do.
I’m having a little trouble understanding the right approach for my planned workflow. I’d like to import regions of geography as heightfields obtained from SRTM data sampled at 30m resolution, then add detail at a much higher resolution and export the new heightfield for rendering in Vray with Cinema 4D.
So far the import’s going fine. Where I’m struggling is how best to add detail such as erosion, rocks and just basic surface roughness and how to combine this with the imported heightfield.
I haven’t yet seen an example file or tutorial that does this.
Can you steer me in the right direction?
In the meantime, here’s the kind of work I do and I want to expand with WM: http://vimeo.com/19713691
