Seconded
How've I never seen that before, that's gorgeous, I might use it as my desktop background now too. That's an actual place? I always thought the banner was something that someone rendered in OpenGL or Photoshop or something.
I think it's safe to say that the obviously texturised mountains, pixelated ground and the moon with its own satellites show quite clearly that it is indeed a rendered 3D image.
But thanks for this. Oddly enough, I couldn't find it myself when I searched some time ago.
Is it Terragen? I've always wanted to learn how to use that.
Oh yeah. I never had any thought that it was a real place, but I just thought I'd post it back onto DV as the old thread has gone somewhere.
You should definitely check it out. It's not that hard to use. I've only had it for a couple of days, now, and I'm coming up with some pretty good stuff already. :wink:Quote:

Thanx Superduck!
When I opened this thread it was with the intention of having something negative to say about that pic, since I've only ever seen it in the site header, but it's actually very evocative.
BTW cool new Avatar, been away for a while so hadn't noticed it yet.
Hehe. Thanks. Goldney made it.
Cool stuff :D! I think I'll wait for version 2 to come out in a few months though, only feel like learning it once :P.Quote:

Quite a cool pic, and O, those are some cool pics man. Didn't know you were trying out Terragen. I'll have to round up some of my old renders, and maybe make some new ones. I've got the current version and the beta of the new version. Have you tried any moonlit scenes yet?
Thanks, Steel. Do you have a url for where I can download the beta for Tg2? Or do they have it on the main site, somewhere that I overlooked it? I haven't tried anything moonlit yet because I'm also trying to work out how to import Terragen terrains into Blender3D. I'd really want to be able to integrate an actual moonscape texture onto the moon (which I don't think you can do with Terragen alone), unless I have the moon mostly covered by clouds, and it's just the glare from the moon that is visible.
Actually, speaking of that, I might actually do it that way, just to see what I get.
But, if you have any renders, plesae by all means post them.
And yeah, O. That's some really nice work there.
:bravo: duck! Pretty good! AWSOME! I will sure use it as a desktop!
Spread The Word! Dv For Desktop! dv For Desktop! dv For Desktop!
Is there an HD version? That jpeg is kinda crappy around the mountains and moon. I didn't notice the 3 satellites at first. That's an insane rendering, the water looks real.
Just get a pic of the DV logo and open it as a layer onto the other pic. Quite simple really.Quote:

As of when I got it, it was on the main site. Though I'm not sure if it's still there. TG2 is a lot more complicated to use, at least to me, so I haven't messed around with it much yet.Quote:

Also, Photoshop (or the GIMP) could do essentially the same thing. All you'd have to do is render the scene, open the image in Photoshop, and replace the moon with a bump-mapped sphere. Piece of cake. That's how the banner was done, if I'm not too far off.
I'll try to get some of my renders uploaded, I've actually got a few halfway decent ones laying around.
[Edit:] Found something: http://www.blender.org/download/pyth...import-export/
Scroll down to Ter2blend. :)
Oh my god, *drools*
I want to enter that place on my next lucid.
Yeah, I learned about Ter2blend a few days after I started messing with Terragen. I downloaded it but I haven't messed with it yet. It seems pretty technical to me, so far, because I know absolutely jack-shit about scripts, but I'll get it, eventually! Thanks for the link, though, Steel. :goodjob2:Quote:
