Semi-scientifical algorithms for highest requirements

The quality of the erosions is improved and three new high quality erosions are added.
With the extended randomness control it is possible to create naturally, meandered erosions on plain terrains.

Scientists are enthused about the new erosion "thin flows sediment",  who can simulate the naturally sediments. The high speed and the extreme realistic results will convince you.

 

 

Complexes combinations

In nature different erosions have influence to the terrain. The water amount changed with the climatic conditions or seasonal variations. The frost lines move in the course of ten thousand years or there are volcano eruptions.

The video show a combination of erosions, filters and isolines, necessary to enable sophisticated scientific illustrations. You can see the amount of change before and after a volcano eruption, like the Mount St. Helen.

 

 
 
 

Controlled erosions

It is very important, that you can controlled the erosions.

The erosions are not only post work erosions in the final terrain, but it is possible to use they in any level (dynamic level generation) and already little changes in a early level have great effects.

Terrains can not only upgrade afterwards, but you can form the terrains with the erosions. That needs excellent control instruments.  

Other than control elements, who manage the flows (deepness, width, quantity, slope and randomness), could be use selections to control the erosions.


There are 3 operator modi for the selection control

  1. Standart
    The erosions are strictly limited to the selections. The erosions will be calculated within the selection.
  2. Placed
    Here the selection determines, where the erosions begins. The erosions are not limited by the selection.
  3. Weighted
    Here the selection determines, where the erosions begins and how strong they are. The erosions are not limited by the selection. 

Because GeoControl2 generated the levels dynamic (terrains 2*2 up to the final size), the erosion can also controlled himself in the successional levels.

Inverse erosion

 

Normally erosions remove material. This material is deposit as sediment down site or is removed with streams or creeks. 

Inverse erosions make the opposite: they added material. So it is possible to generated states, how they were, before the terrain was eroded, example ridges and we can also show excellent dunes (basically material accumulation).
