Quick Q, Are you moving the terrain to fit the rivers or moving rivers. I.e. are my rivers still correct ?

Ok, terrain is going into World Machine today. We're aiming for a end of month deadline with this particular run so the terrain will not be the end product by any means. BUT, having said that, at least it will be a product AND I think it will pretty damn fine too. onwards...!
I should point out that this terrain has absolutely no erosion applied to it as yet. Once that goes in, terrain quality will increase dramatically.

V Cool. I have been on the Veg Bias Map last night. So ill post where I am at to this point.

[monks]

woah! I love the way that we can make variation on such global scales. That's what's going to be required. Don't want to have a Middle Earth sized pool table heh...but we might get a pool table sized Middle earth with this map haha!

Were going for a render with minimal erosion, rivers and so on. We want just something, anything which galvanizes what has been done so far. The scripts were written a while ago and Monks is just finishing off some more terrain. Once that is done then with some luck the scripts with minor tweaking will run a full render through. After that would you be able to do some insprired carto magic on them to make the web pages ? Do you have a PC with that still on it ?
