https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/maya-modeling-forum/using-dem-data-to-create-realistic-topography/m-p/5885068#M23677 <P>Yes , a DEM will have way too much realistic information for your needs, I would recommend a 16 bit greyscale map done manually in Photoshop 8 k or 16 k although unity might have a problem with that , you might need to split into 4 k maps .. Convert the displacement in Maya to polygons and save an fbx for unity.</P> <P>its possible to use the photoshop file straight into unity and also perhaps do it in Illustrator , import into Maya as an illustrator file , extrude and loft I believe to create a poly terrain, I don't have the full workflow because is not my kinda work but I'm giving you some tips to search tutorials .</P> <P>Also using curves in Maya and lofting might work... Let's see if other people bringing other ideas.</P> <P>Good luck Jbs.</P> Fri, 30 Oct 2015 03:14:36 GMT damaggio 2015-10-30T03:14:36Z
