HeightBasedLandscape.rar [152Kb] – C# 2.0 (VS.NET 2005)
Description
A über-simple landscape shader that maps a color ramp to a landscape’s height. Basically, it demonstrates that shaders on landscapes is possible, and can be a nice addition to a visual landscape editor.
Features
- Shader Model 1.4-compatible
- 1D texture usage
- Works with any terrain scale
- Features two ramps, one greyscale and the other colored, but other ones can be made
- Very fast, but of course because it’s very simple…
Screenshots
I like this approach for blending terrain textures based on the color mask, but what about adding slope as part of the coloration process? Neighbor pixel sampling or…?
Looks very nice.
Is there a .NET version available anywhere?
thanks
