The first video may help get you started. https://www.coh2.org/guides/10390/worldbuilder-the-spline-tool-in-detail Thank you very much. In regard to the weather I noticed that sometimes I choose rain for example and then hit apply. But the rain won't start. Is there any trick to it? How do you atrt creating your weather of your map? your atmosphere? In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: How to create realistic fields??10 Nov 2020, 08:54 AM Jump back to quoted post9 Nov 2020, 21:14 PMRosbone Knox are these your fields? Or fields you are trying to imitate? Fields are made with SPLINES and a field texture. The best way to use SPLINES and SPLATS is to adjust the opacity (ALPHA). Most of the pics you have posted are of a heavy dirt field. This probably has its opacity set to 100% (cant see thru it). The picture with the green field probably has the opacity set to about 50%. To adjust the opacity of a spline you: - click on splines from menu bar. - It will default to TEXTURE mode. If not select TEXTURE mode from right side toolbar. - Click on COLORIZE button. - A dialog box appears with keyframes that let you set the color and ALPHA(opacity) for each keyframe. - Click on a keyframe (little rectangles on bar) to edit the color and alpha for that keyframe. I get decent results by: - laying down my field splines - Varying the splines position, X or Y mirror, etc to randomize the repeating texture look. - Adjust the keyframes with some random ALPHA values. - Paint under the spline with the TILE editor. - Place some large rock/dirt/hay splats on top and adjust color and opacity(alpha) for those. No...those are not my fields ... My fields look like spalts. They do not look natural. Even when I use plates like gras. They look not realistic. Is there a chance to pick the color of the field exactly or do I have to guess the color? In: Mapping Discussion
