Other terrain generators only support square sizes (e.g. 512 by 512, 1024 by 1024). They are also limited to a maximum size and resolution of around 4096 or 8192 pixels. World Creator has no such limitations.

In World Creator, the detail of a terrain is set by a precision parameter. The default setting is 1 metre, but you can increase the precision down to centimetres, regardless of the size of your terrain. This gives you the ability to create ultra-detailed terrains in unprecedented quality.

Any Filter can be drawn directly on the terrain using brushes and powerful editing tools. That way you can choose which regions should be eroded, have terraces, or add crumbles and apply sand at any location. The terrain adapts automatically, non-destructive, and in real-time.

World Creator's erosion system has evolved to an extremely efficient, powerful and ultra-realistic system. Erosion is calculated based on different particle simulations to mimic fluid and thermal erosion.

Sediment filters will let you apply sand, crumbles, and other sort of sediment on top of the terrain. World Creator therefore has very powerful sediment systems included that are based on physic simulations.

World Creator supports many different terrace like terrain structures. You may create sharp and edgy terraces or terraces with smooth edges. You can define the terrace amount and the way they should behave when eroded.

With 7 Arid filters in total. World Creator will serve you to create arid like terrain structures that look dry, rocky, have crumbles and sand. These will help you to create amazing canyons, salty deserts, rocky surfaces and more.

With overall 11 built-in noise filters, World Creator lets you create any kind of terrain structure you need. Following Noise types are available: Billow, Gabor, Perlin, Phasor, Ridged, Simplex, Value, Voronoi, Wave, and White.

Effect filters are used to additionally perform artistic modifications on the terrain surface and structure. For example, you might want to create blocks, craters, distort or denoise the terrain. There are 14 effect filters in total available.

World Creator allows you to easily create a terrain from scratch, as well as customising existing terrains with built-in sculpting tools. One of these is Brushed Based Sculpting, which behaves exactly like a painting tool like Photoshop, but for terrains.

One of the more diverse sculpting tools is Grid Based Sculpting, which is perfect for very quick creations and adjustments. You select cells in a grid using a brush, and then you can modify those cells and their neighbours.

World Creator lets you create simple rivers, roads, mountain ranges, canyons and more with our unique vector-based and distance-field-based path tools, giving you even more creative freedom.

The shape tool allows you to create any type of polygon shape and use it to design your terrain. For example, you might want to create a lake in the mountains, a mountain range or a giant hole in the terrain.

Create any type of river - procedurally or by design. You can either let World Creator generate the river for you, based on the terrain you see in the viewport, and then modify it by hand, or you can create your own river by placing springs and flow points.

World Creator allows you to import custom elevation and colour maps as stamps to create and extend your existing terrains. You can import DEM data or terrains from other applications and assemble a new landscape within World Creator in real time.

We have added procedural stamps such as volcanoes, islands, fissures and more, saving you a lot of time creating these specific terrain features. Think of it as a tiny terrain generator within World Creator.

World Creator is a great tool that lets you import 3D models to be used as 3D stamps. You can think of importing 3D rocks, tree stumps, or anything else, and then stamp it on the terrain as-is. It even takes care of albedo maps of the given 3D model, which is really handy!

Register with MapTiler and connect to their real world data service through World Creator to import the locations of your choice. With World Creator, using real world data for your productions is no longer a challenge (you must register with MapTiler to use the service).

Terrain Condition Masking lets you mask the terrain based on the terrain surface. For example, the image you see takes the rocky parts to create a mask. World Creator ships with 33 terrain condition mask operations called distributions.

Mask effects can be applied to terrain condition masks to further modify the result. For example, the image you see takes the rocky parts to create the mask and further applies a fast flow effect to create flows based on the rocky mask. There are 20 mask effects available.

World Creator is also great for direct mask painting! This is really handy if you want to mask specific locations manually to apply filters, materials, biomes, and more using a brush combined with powerful drawing tools. You may also import your own brushes to be utilized for drawing.

Layer Masks take a specific design layer, such as the Polygon Layer, Path Layer, Rivers Layer, all Stamp Layers, Sculpt Layers and Procedural Layers to create the mask. For example, the image shows a star created with the Polygon Layer which is then used to create the mask.

Simulation Masks are created by all simulations that are applied on the terrain. For terrain shown, a Sand Simulation was added and masked by a Simulation Mask. This applies for all available simulations in World Creator.

Creating a Simulation Layer and choosing the type of simulation, such as sand, is all it takes to get started. With the option to use brushes or procedural techniques, you can easily drop an adjustable amount of sand on the terrain and watch it distribute.

The fluid simulation is an incredibly versatile tool that can be used to fill rivers, lakes, and seas with water, as well as create lava and other types of fluid interactions. By defining specific locations for fluid spawning (as shown in the image), World Creator takes care of the rest.

With World Creator, you can confidently simulate snow on top of your terrain! The workflow is just as easy as the sand simulation (see above), but the outcome is uniquely different based on your simulation settings. You can even define specific regions where you want snow to appear.

Use simple colours to colour the terrain. The best and quickest approach for initial material setup and masking.

A very powerful coloring system capable of creating realistic colors in seconds. Gradients can be applied to blended terrain masks along with many different effects to create stunning results that will blow your socks off.

Add textures and Adobe Substance materials to your terrain for even more detail. In World Creator, you can swap existing materials without re-masking.

Enjoy true atmosphere scattering effects.

True volumetric clouds with fog, god-rays and dust.

Best choice for high-end GPUs to experience photorealistic rendering while designing your terrain. This rendering mode will truly knock your socks off.

Heat maps allow you to see which parts of the terrain are affected while selecting the appropriate terrain features. Any masking operation supports heat map visualization.
