Adding Terrain Detail - leejk - 04-28-2026
Hi,
I really like the new Terrain Download operator!
However, I am having some trouble adding detail to the downloaded terrain. As expected, the downloaded terrain is lacking real world details, so I was thinking it may be possible to add it back procedurally. But after trying the different operators like Terrain Erosion or Terrain FX, still the surfaces look too smooth when rendered. Ideally it'd be nice to only affect vertical surfaces past a specified angle. The goal is to make the rendered terrain look similar to this: Eagle Mesa - Google Maps
Is this possible?
thx

Did you increase your terrain resolution in the Birth Terrain operator?

Thank you, that does help but still not the detail I'd like to have. It simply could be the source data is not high res enough.
