Ter2Blend

This plugin provides the means by which a Terragen terrain file can be imported in to Blender and be setup for composition.

 

Plugin Information:

  • Version: 5.0
  • Author: David Johnson
  • Date of Release 20-Feb-2008
  • Tested on:
    • On Ubuntu Linux running Blender 2.44

Whats New:

This is an refresh release of the code based on the orginal code developed by Guy. It has removed the need to provide a blend file with the script and should be able to be used as a drop in script.

Summary of Capabilities:

The script will currently load in a Terragen Terrain file so that the view through the scene camera will match the image generated with terragen. Once imported the environment can then be used for scenes or animation.

Examples:

Notes:

Documentation:

How to use the script be found here. I have include an old tutorial from Guy which is still pretty valid and should also be useful to provide some additional background information until I complete a more up to date tutorial

Planned Enhancements:

Use the Blender Browser to select files, with a popup option in order to fit in better with the other import scripts.
