Old Newbie... Landscape made of cds
-
Hi all...
I guess my brain has decided to take a day off today (once more )...
I can't find a way to re-create a landscape with instanced components of a CD following a terrain...
Like in the example below:
I thought the fur plug-in would do but it doesn't seem to have a fixed spacing parameter...
I thought about texturing the terrain but the rendered result doesn't quite works...Thanks a lot for your time!
P.S. : Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! It's driving me nuts!
-
This one maybe? Never tried it though.
Funny CD's composition btw. -
Hi Massimo!
Thanks for trying to take me out of this hole I just dug...
I wonder if maybe I have a better option instancing in Thea...
-
Hi Nicolas, I don't think you can obtain such "regularity" using istancing in Thea.
-
Well I thought the grid would do but it's not what I hoped...
-
I think I'll end up texturing the shape... Not too great...

I would go like this:
Model the terrain with sand box
Model a cd, make it a component, or proxy it (I use vray)
Use Chris Fulmer's awesome: Place Component on Faces Plugin.
Set up material
Profit

3dita, I thank you, it works perfectly!
I just need to find the best spacing in the sandbox to make sure my computer doesn't die rendering this but it is what I needed!Thanks a bunch!

Glad I could be of help! Again, make sure the CDs are Proxies, otherwise I think it's gonna be hard to handle that scene..
Looking forward to see how it turned out, ok?
Cheers
