Is there a way to use erosion-device horizontal (strata like)?

General Discussion

hi there,

the erosion device “erodes” horizontal, by “default”.
I was not able to find a way, to make it carve out some horizontal “stripes”, like strata ones.

Can you help me out with a trick - or is it just not possible (because it could might produce some overhangs or caves)?

so no way to archieve this?

It depends on what you want to achieve – are you looking to make a texture that looks like that, or to have it naturally appear on the sides of your terrains?

If the former, it can definitely be done – there is a thread here in the forums with an example texture created that is quite similar. I can try to dig up the thread it was posted in in a bit if this is your interest…

If the latter, it is unfortunately not possible – heightfields cannot have overhangs and crevices, so there is no way to represent the structure or create it in an emergent manner at the moment.

Thank you for reply - I meand the 2nd thing (ok, but I thought it maybe not possible)

Cheers!
