Hilly Surrond

notretsam

So need some advice, am building my own town for a visual novel am planning and I got most things bought that I need for it already.

Basically east and west is houses that I use room creator for and have streets as well,  south is going be sea and beach and north I was thinking big hills or maybe a mountain.

I came across some assets for mountains in the background but they are restrictive, essentially there a photo in the background.

I am looking for an asset that actually allows me to place a mountain and hill, then I can adjust the size and also make node instances off and then have a mountain range or hill range.

Came across hilly surround which has 40% off today but not sure if this will do what am looking for, although not much to buy really but was hoping someone had used it and could tell me or someone can suggest another asset which does what am looking for.

not really looking for mountains or hills in the background, looking for an actual product that allows me to add mountains or hills to a scene, then I can build my own mountains or hills range within a town am building.

Sounds like you need a modeling app then. You can create smooth, rolling hills by adding deformers to an HD plane

yeah, am self-teaching myself Daz studio like I suspect most do and not heard of deformers till now but will look into that.

also, yes, modelling app sounds about right.
