You can render again at higher settings with the Micro exporter box unchecked to create a top view image map if you want. If you have steep cliffs or overhangs, do multiple renders/exports of top and side views to capture all vertexes, as the micro exporter only creates vertexes that are visible in the render. Its rendering way off results with cloud scattering from the nice previews with rtp, and when I try to apply planet textures on secondary planets, they refuse to show up, and I followed tutes, pretty much as they did it, but it refuses to render the planet textures.
Terragen forum update#
(I once exported at full render size and detail, but the file was so large LightWave could not handle it.!) Uhmm.not happy with how terragen works for me now, perhaps I need to update the demo, probably. Now set the resolution to something square, like 512x512, and the render detail to 0.5. The should be like the image you posted above, so that's good. Last thing we need to do is place the camera in a spot that overviews the area you want to export. Go to 'Assign micro_handler' -> '"/Lwo micro exporter 01"' (the lwo exporter we just created). Than click the '.' button on the other side of the blank field. To do that, check the box of Micro exporter (and you can uncheck the box above that if it's checked). If you purchased Deep+Animation you can render a sequence here, but you can also add a Micro exporter. In the lower left you have some tabs, go to the last tab called 'Sequence/Output'. Now go to the render tab of the main window. lwo at the end as that doesn't happen automatically. Browse to a folder you want to save the lwo file in, and name the file to your liking, but make sure you add. Next to 'Filename' is a blank field and a 'save' icon. The new node (gray coloured) should have appeared somewhere near the mouse cursor. *Right-click in the node network and from the menu select 'Create other' -> 'Lwo micro exporter'. I can't afford to spend more time with this now but I am sure everthing is possible in the export-import department.

Its been a while since I used Terrragen 2 I hated those rendering times
