Adding a Directional warp node

The Directional warp node transforms a terrain by another terrain that determines the displacement at each vertex.

To add a Directional warp node, right-click in the Graph Editor and select Create Node  > Terrain Transformation  > Directional warp, or use the keyboard shortcut NTDW for Node Terrain Directional Warp.

Select the node to open its parameters:

Editing a Directional warp node

Use the sliders or the manipulators to adjust the Directional warp values.

If the input terrain has a color map, then this color map is modified at the same time as the terrain.

  • Intensity: Defines the force or intensity of the displacement.
  • Angle: Defines the direction of the deformation:
    • When the angle is equal to 0°, the terrain is warped horizontally.
    • When the angle is equal to 90°, the terrain is warped vertically.
    • When the angle is equal to 45°, the terrain is warped in the direction of a SW-NE diagonal.

Positive altitudes lead to a displacement toward the right when the angle is equal to 0. A negative altitude leads to a movement in the opposite direction, for example to the left when the angle is equal to 0.
