The hight map was made with a self trained stable diffusion model. Generating it took like 15 seconds polysmile
I have trained the model on other terrains as well, but creating hight maps of the desert and creators are the only things it does well.

I think the training length could have been longer, but the amount of high maps I had was pretty limited (around 40), so if anyone has some high maps I can use to train the model, let me know
I would love to make this an actual working thing and use a variety of height maps for training that the model is able to understand (mountains, moon, river, desert...)

The 2nd image is the height map that I used. If anyone wants it feel free to use it.

I scaled it up to 8k (with chainNer), set the image depth to 16 bit and scaled it back down to 4k which should reduce the amount banding while increasing the resolution (the original was 1200 x 1200)

And a few more height maps that I didn't edit and that didn't turn out so well. The crater are decent but it probably needs some more maps and epochs

Have you tried using the Landscape generator to make your own height maps? polysmile

#

Like this...

Slap on the "decal material"

Render it out as a 32 bit OpenEXR with an Orthographic Camera (this is important, any other file format will have weird stepped banding) (this screen snip is probably a png as discord doesn't support exrs)

And you're done!

Here's the displaced one and the original one side by side

One thing to keep in mind when using this method is that the height map will generate an exact replica of the base mesh. So unless you want sharp edges and a weird looking terrain, I'd suggest you SubD the base mesh a few times and then set shade autosmooth.

@versed pilot I have 8 height maps which is not that much 😅 but it might be helpful for you, here is a preview image if you want it.

I see...
have you tried something like terrain party or Tangrams?

I managed to find 30 height maps and made 60
Now I have 125 that I need to manually name and describe polysmile

Thats exactly what I need 🙌
