Hos does one go about making this? [Custom Climate]

Postby Ppgtjmad » Fri Nov 27, 2015 4:41 pm

Hi everyone,

First time posting here, first of all thanks for this awesome software, I own the pro version and have a lot of fun with it.

As the title says, I want to make my own climate which consists in:

- Seabed
- Sand
- Rock
- Dry Grass
- Lush Grass

Terrain setup:
Terrain grid size is 4096
Horizontal scale is 2.5m
Overall size is 10240m
Min altitude is -509.09m
Max altitude is 707.51m

Am actually using demo climate sand-grass-rock climate, I made of copy of it and want to add seabed + green grass. I've read both of the available tutorials on that matter, still don't understand the parameters tab with coefficients and altitude ranges.

Lets say I want:
Seabed - Min lvl -509.09 / Max lvl -5
Sand - No min lvl / Max lvl 10
Rock - Min lvl 2 / No max lvl
Dry Grass - Min lvl 10 / Max lvl 20
Lush Grass - Min lvl 20 / No max lvl

Can someone give me a good example with the above settings? (with base score, gradient, ramp etc...).

Thanks guys.

EDIT: Now I understand the base score, ramp values, still need an example tho.

Black - Dry grass
Fuschia - Seabed
Yellowish - Sand
Blue - Lush Grass

I think I'm on the right track :)

Wow! That is really awesome. Could you send a download link for the climate? Would love to try it out in my game!
