Description
A boulder generator. Add a little extra to your landscapes. A shaded 2.5D boulder with lighting and shading. Only makes one at a time, but there are enough controls to ensure uniqueness and consistency among any number you create. Just lock Preview plus lighting controls and hit Next Variant. Distortion can move a boulder out of the center masked area, but Offset (X/Y) controls can be used to recenter it. Output on a green-screen background or with alpha masking. Create a New Image with a transparent background for the latter. You can also load your own Height and Albedo to create your own boulders, and other strange objects. Make sure Seamless Tiling is checked and Size is at max.A filter made possible using an adaptation of the Spherical Previewer by ThreeDee. Reviewed both versions (that I'm aware of). Lighting inspiration from emme.
