Re: Learning curve hard for Terragen ?

Here is the link to the class,

Its really a fun class, I learned a lot to start me off using the new TG. I had
troubles with
the camera settings and the instructor helped me with that a lot.

About the surreal.......(quoting the dictionary, having qualities of surrealism;
bizzare,
unreal, unusual, wierd, strange, freakish, unearthly, uncanny, dreamlike,
phantasmagorical)...... work, I guess you would want Bryce for that.
With TG, you can't make those surreal castles, animals and people.
TG is more for landscape, seascape, space, scenes.
I dont relish the surreal stuff, I find it kind of creepy,,,,thats why I prefer
TG to Bryce.
Though Bryce is absolutly amazing for creating beautiful images. I have taken
classes in it
too, and its really wonderful. But I do love TG the best.

Since I have used Terragen 0.9 very little, I'll leave others to discuss how to use that version. I actively use TG2... The technology preview of Terragen 2...
