I wanted to create a plugin that allowed the creation of more realistic terrain without having to go to the effort of creating height map images etc. Here is an image of a typical island created with the tool (it takes a few seconds):
I’ve had some suggestions / questions on this in DMs, I’ll summarise the answers here to keep you all informed:
What I have considered adding to it:
Auto-painting more terrain types by altitude and gradient (although it is quite easy to manually do this in the Roblox terrain tools). Auto-vegetation / rock tools. Road / path generation. River / stream generation. Convert to editable mesh + different LoD.
Am I still working on it:
I’m paused, but open to possibilities. Apart from a couple of DMs the response to the plugin has been minimal and I don’t really want to pile hours into something 3 people might use.
Will I charge for it in the future:
I’d like to, and that would really motivate me to put more time into it, but it feels like there is almost no demand for it, so I would be pay-walling something from most users to earn a coffee, which seems pointless.
You can help motivate me by:
If you have tried it out, post here and tell me what you do/don’t like. Tell me what new feature you would most like to see. If you just like whole thing, please say so as that would really motivate me to do some more (it also bumps it for others to see). If you would actually spend $ on this let me know.
The issue with the Plugin RunContext has been resolved, and this plugin works now (I tried it myself). And can I just say, it looks amazing! I’m envisioning making some kind of open world traversal game with it (though we’ll see if that ever actually happens haha)
