This week I finished the forest scene. I built the scene using the terrain I tested last week, this time I added some trees and stones that I had downloaded from Bridge and added some lighting and air fog effects to make the scene more realistic.
Based on the reference I found earlier, I planned this to be an overhead shot, so I just needed to get the trees in the right place.
So far it’s working fine, except that the LOD is losing its surface so badly that some of the leaves are turning into a surface piece, which I’ll try to fix next week.
