Looks like a very detailed list of topics. Nothing i can think of at the moment but i have been playing around with procedural terrains and the function editor with fractal nodes. cool results but hard t make the type of formations i have in mind at the time. So this will definitely come in handy.

P.S. I see you cant use imported picture height-maps; example like your "fall road" tutorial does with a regular terrains. So if its possible to do something like that with procedural's, it would awesome to include it in the list as well.

Incredible !!!

Such a complete and thorough collection. Are these going to be available for purchase and download? If not but they will be available to view online, then let me know of a way i can donate. Because one way or another you and the G@P staff really need to be compensated for all the hard work that is obviously being put into these.

Again great work, and thanks for the time and effort in putting these together.

We cannot thank you enough for all these wonderful tutorials. And don't worry about your English - I almost refuse to listen to tutorials these days that don't have a Russian accent :wink: :wink: Seriously, you cannot imagine how you have enriched our Vueing experience (and Hexagon, etc. etc. too)! We really, really appreciate your generosity.

WOW! My jaw just dropped on my on my desk when I saw all the terrain tuts. This looks so absolutely comprehensive in all manner. I will be eagerly watching these over the months as they are released. Thank you so much for making these as the procedural editor will be something I can benefit from greatly.

Thx
