Skin for terrain
-
I have terrain modeled for golf hole and I would need to take this model into game engine. I would need to select the outer edges of the current terrain model and drop/project these lines to 500mx500m terrain plane, a kind creating a skin between terrain model and terrain plane to create a square terrain model.
Do you have any suggestion for tools/plugins that I could use to make it quick to do? I have to do it 18 times.
I was planning to do it by selecting outer edges of the terrain and using Drape tool but this requires flat geometry to be projected. I also tested Curviloft plugin but I didn't get it working. Do you know any other plugins or technique to create this kind of skin?

Use Vertex Tools on the selected boundary and extrude it on Z.
Or SDMitch Terrain Skirt tool.

Thanks! I have so far tested Skirt tool and that works well in my case at least.

I had a similar project a year or 2 ago. That time I was dealing with LIDAR scans and 40k images.
Needed to downsample the mesh and images to get it to open in SU.

Maybe ?
