Tutorial Project: Basics of procedural terrain modelling in World Machine

Here is a free text and application based basic tutorial I made for those new to procedural terrain modelling. I go over some very basics of Terrain modelling, in a language friendly to new users and artists alike. Download the archive and extract the folder to a location you can read and write to. Open the world machine project in any version above “4031.2”, and follow the instructions contained within. It’s more of a demo for new users, I skipped over “design methodology” to keep things simple and concise. You can ask questions about the workflow here itself, as a reply to this forum post.

Enjoy!

I just caught a few typos, and edited a few settings here and there. So here’s an updated build of the project. I added a version suffix to both the folder and the file, so it shouldn’t overwrite the previous one.

I’m not sure if I saw this before, but it’s always good to see tutorials going out to the community. Keep up the good work!

Caught a few more typos. Changed the structure to be more of an island. Here’s the updated version, files versioned incrementally so they won’t be replaced.
