DARKMATTERMAGIC
A variety of hill types easily formed with this set of terrain brush masks. Design spanning environmental elevation and sculpt realistic, stylized, or fictional hills. Sculpt environments and design levels with rolling, sloping elevations and soft, hill-like forms.
16 terrain brush masks for sculpting rounded hills. Includes 16 .png source files (1024 × 1024 heightmaps) for customizing your own derivative brushes.
A brush set designed and curated to easily produce a variety of hills separately or in combination. Not limited to realism, as a toolset, can be used in extreme and creative ways to produce unreal and imaginative terrain suited for almost any genre and environment type.
There are two brushes that are more dynamic in their intention and use than the rest. The AddSub_Hill brush is an addition/subtraction brush for shaping and/or detailing hills and landforms. The Draw_HIll brush is intended as an addition hill sculptor.
Intuitive, proficient and useful is the goal. Expect future updates and versions that expand and enhance the collection.
Dear Land Former,
Rounded Hills: Landform Terrain Brushes are designed and curated to provide dynamic brushes for easily producing sloping soft rounded hills.
Brushes were specifically designed, curated, and tested for and through the 'Raise or Lower Terrain' use. They are compatible with terrain stamp use, along with every other type of brush use, found in the built-in Terrain Editor or Unity’s 'Terrain Tools' preview package extension. Deviating use types have not been tested.
Brush Strokes:
Brief and delicate brush strokes are recommended, in place, directionally or circularly.
There are two brushes that are more dynamic in their use than the rest. The AddSub_Hill brush is an addition/subtraction brush for shaping and/or detailing hills and landforms. The Draw_HIll brush is an addition hill sculptor.
For visual examples and instructions please watch the preview video above.
Brush settings:
In the default terrain editor, a brush opacity below 40 is recommended.
Using the Terrain Tools preview package, a brush strength of less than 0.1 and brush sizes ranging from 128 to 256 are recommended. As the brush size increases or decreases incrementally adjust strength in correlation. An increase brush strength to size ratio will result in more unreal and dramatic terrain sculpting and brush stroke results.
Creative Disclaimer:
As a toolset, this brush set is designed with the intention to enable creative possibility. These recommendations in brush use and settings are suggestions to ensure tested and intended quality, not to hinder or limit your own creativity. Your preferences and experimentation are encouraged!
Enjoy Land Former!
