Fantastic add-on and video! And I'm finding the way that lets the offset keyframes are able to be animated and the 'refresh' feature is sparking at each frame automatically- If this is possible, this addon could be used for making great animation for uncountable shapes of growling landscape by this addon. Is there some way for solving this issue?
Who missing menu and dont work "F"9. Select with mouse terrain, press "N" and on right side in very little "CREATE" shortcut button on side of window, then select "Landscape" and press button with name of terrain.
Can't believe it. I mean, I was learning how to do this manually and than saw this 3yo video and... damn... THank you, sir, for that. And for magical bottom too)))
The first thing I want to point out, because it’s easy to miss, is there’s actually a drop-down with a number of different presets up above, so if you’re trying to create a certain kind of landscape, you might want to try to find something similar here, then build on top of that. ...dont have this with 3.0...I think I cant find it
@@itsdw2323 thanks for the input, I didn't know that N pulls out and hides the menu bar, thanks! , but we already know about that menu, what we don't get is the "Another noise tool" it ain't here in blender 3.5, do you see it?
Hey, thank you, this is a really good overview of this tool. Got me out of a bind! Did you do a followup with procedural texturing? It'd be great if such a thing existed, I'm trying to mock up some basic farmland in an enclosed flat valley.
Thank you, it's a great video. I want to make a pond underneath a cliff and a small waterfall, so this should be good for me. I thought I'd have to make the cliff manually, but I'm glad I don't. It's nice when tools exist that make creating things quick and easy, especially since I don't expect I'll have much time to work on this.
Really helpful tutorial. Lots of options to this tool that can make it more than a little confusing. What I'm looking for is some way to create a realistic mountain with erosion and snow details. Thanks a lot Justin!
So I enabled it… shift A gives me landscape and one will come into scene…. But I don’t have the sidebar w all the presets toolbar thingy you have to the left of screen… how do I view it?
Wow. I'm new to Blender. Does all of this still apply to 3.0, Or has it been more refined? P.S. you are always my go-to tutor. Very clear and concise method of teaching. 👍
What if my Preset menu isn’t appearing for some reason? I was able to install the landscape but once I click it the landscape uploads, but I don’t get the preset menu you have on the side.
Hi Justin, Thank you very much for you tutorials. I'm just learning Blender and these have been very helpful. Would it be possible to do a follow up on this video that shows step-by-step on to get a texture, import it and render a beautiful landscape? You have a follow up video that uses a different addon but it goes way too fast for a newbie.
Possible - I haven't quite gotten around to doing this yet - I did talk a bit about height based texturing here - ruclips.net/video/ksZbiYR3WQ4/видео.html
I am new to Blender, so can someone help me? I was able to follow along up to the point of creating the landscape..When I pressed "Landscape", The setting bar that is labeled, "Another Noise tool-landscape" did not pop up. Where can I find this in settings? Thanks in advance! :)
What's up! A bit off topic, but I'm a Sketchup-user trying to find a way to drape things onto terrain in blender. Would love a tutorial for that! In my case, i'm trying to model a siteplan in 2d and drape roads and housing lots on 3d terrain...
@@TheCGEssentials I have opened the add-oh in version 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 and at no time did the program offered me any preset options! Amazing as this may sound.
I don't understand the question. You enable the add-on and then using Shift-A in the viewport you add an ANT landscapes item. Once you click off the item, it's done being generated - you can't call the menu back as this is an older tool (not built on geometry nodes)
@@TheCGEssentials Ah that's probably why, yes is the bar on the left side that you were editing with. I guess the newer version does not have that anymore.
Thanks Justin. Would you recommend this ANT if you have a specific shape or contouring in mind? I'm not talking GIS data, just a specific landscape formation.
Probably not - this one's more for using noise/algorithms to generate procedural landscapes - if you wanted a specific shape I'd just subdivide a plane and use the move tool with proportional editing
mine will not install landscape it use to have all the time in blender but now it doesn't have it that's dumb it keeps getting me ( Traceback / most recent call ) don't know why
The menu for the options of the terrain on the left side doesn’t show up for me when I create the objekt. Does anyone know what i’m doing wrong? Well I did manage to fix it. But now, the operator presets doesn’t show up. I’m using the newest version of it. Does anyone know what i’m doing wrong NOW or where it is located in the newer versions?
Did you ever find a solution? Sometimes the sidebar tool goes away (even the minimized version at the bottom left of the screen), and I have to restart to bring it back.
when I add the mesh blender does not allow me to change the settings ass when I try and click a setting the menu is gone so I am just stuck with the same seed unable to change the noise for more variations any tips
Ok delete landscape and drop it in again to get menu to appear again, the minute you click onto something else it disappears. Apparently F9 can bring it back but it didn't for me.
Yeah F9 works sometimes but not always. Not sure why that is, but I'm really hopeful this tool gets updated with geometry nodes so this isn't an issue anymore
@@TheCGEssentials Thanks for your reply. Yeah funny you should say that, because it seems to popup more frequently now. So perhaps it was a bug. The worst problem I had with Blender, is I created a boat animating on water and the foam would disappear after creating a copy and renaming one of the files. Luckily I had a backup on a pen drive. Perhaps Blender is known for one or two bugs? Just one more thing we really appreciate your tutorial over here in England. A lot of us haven't done any 3D VFX designs and the course is based more on Houdini, so to have someone like you simplifying everything is really helpful!! Thanks.

Me either, I can't see a menu for the different pre-sets 1:08, using 3.0 apparently press F9 but all I get is a message saying refresh.
All you do is tap the N key - go to create - then go to landscape. This will work with 3.0 and up

it's insane i am finding this 4 years later
Love your videos!! you do one on one training?
Hello! I can't see the preset option like i can see only default option in the preset setting nothing else.
thank you i was watching your sketch up videos too youre a good teacher!
Thanks very much! Glad I could help!

Really helpful, thank you! Looking forward to the adding materials video. I hope it uses particles. :)
Really helpful!
great video, thanks! Id be great if you can do a video on applying materials to this
for some reason I don't have the add on?
yeah me neither :/
nvm, its in the extensions tab now. Not the add on tab.
So I enabled it… shift A gives me landscape and one will come into scene…. But I don’t have the sidebar w all the presets toolbar thingy you have to the left of screen… how do I view it?
me too
very nice explanation, thank you!
Very informative. Thank you.

If you lose the menu on the side.. it loads back up from where you left off if you add the landscape mesh again
Love u man! Thanks :D
Wow. I'm new to Blender.
Does all of this still apply to 3.0,
Or has it been more refined?
P.S. you are always my go-to tutor.
Very clear and concise method of teaching. 👍
I believe everything in this one should still apply to Blender 3.0+
Excellent video! I just wish there was some way to keep the menu up (or getting it back), when clicking off the landscape.
Totally agree - losing the menu is very frustrating
@@TheCGEssentials so there's no way to get the menu back once i accidentally close it? :(
@@samyadeep906 You can try tapping the F9 key, but it very rarely works
@@TheCGEssentials yes, I tried and it's working
Hey is there a video of how to texture these landscapes using these plugins?
What if my Preset menu isn’t appearing for some reason? I was able to install the landscape but once I click it the landscape uploads, but I don’t get the preset menu you have on the side.
Great vid.
Is this Landscape Plugin (or something similar) included in Blender 3?
i can't get the menu for the different presets. could use some help
The operator presets is blank for me. I hit restore operator defaults and still no presets show up. Do you have a suggestion?
You ALWAYS have the best addons to share with us I hope you get more subscribers!
Lol - thanks! :)
I badly need help!!! Is there anyway I can add procedural material to the ant landscape instead of texturing it with UV mapping? Hello pleasee !!!
thanks dude i need this
