Rocks and Asteroids models

We can Make Models of Rocks and Asteroids easily on Blender.
On 3D Max It's more Complex.

Those look fantastic! Nice find.

I've been thinking that on planets, we can populate ground objects with noisemaps that overlay each other based on logic operations. So one ground plant will always take over another ground plant, or a plant will crowd around rocks.

Thank you.

BTW

With This Stuff we Can Make Massive Amount of different Rocks and Asteroids.

Very true, but do we really want to? We'd like a small number of files in the game, so perhaps we only need a few different models. For larger structures, I would recommend a procedure, although I don't know how I would go about it.

Nice research. I'll make sure roadkill gets a look at this.

I love To do those small Researches.
