For example, to add clouds to the scene click Atmosphere and then the Add cloud layer button. The same configuration page is also available via the Renderers button on the bar at the top of the window. This is limited to a maximum of 1280x900 in the free version. Double clicking on the Render 01 node in the Renderers pane brings up the properties (to change the resolution, etc). This includes Renderers, Cameras and scene elements like clouds, terrain and shaders. The node network displayed in the lower right part of the interface is a hierarchial display of the scene. There is a rough view in the upper right that shows an approximation of how the rendered scene will appear. On my Macbook Pro, the rendering took approximately 40 seconds (pictured below right). To render this basic scene, click the View->Render menu. When you load the program it creates a simple environment for you. However, what impressed me most is how easy it is to get started (user interface pictured below left).
TERRAGEN 3 PROJECTS SOFTWARE
There are some limitations over the pay version of the software that include restricting resolution, render detail and degree to which anti-aliasing is applied. Here are a couple of screen shots from their image gallery: To help inspire a side project I am working on, I utilized an excellent rendering engine for natural environments and terrain called Terragen 3 from Planetside Software.
I wrote 2D and 3D fractal terrain generators for fun when I was in school. For years I have been interested in modeling terrain.
