Thank you so much. I am having fun building it. I hope that you'll be happy with the new surface tools for close-up shots (coming soon, really soon). Cheers!

This product definitely deserves 5 stars. it is fantactic and really easy to use. The creator was really nice and helpful to solve a problem I had during installation. He spent a lot of time to help me understand where I was going wrong and solved the problem very seriously by proposing various solutions. I recommend him to anyone who wants to create a formidable terrain in a few minutes. Also not to be underestimated you can find many videos explaining how it works on youtube both recorded directly by the creator and by many other people using this "addon". For me it is one of the most beautiful "addon" for terrain creation with the possibility to bake and export it to other software as well. Highly recommended.
5 stars for the quality and customizability of this product,
if you're curious about the addon, want to make your own landscapes instead of using premade ones, and love to tinker, this addon might be for you.
PLEASE NOTE: not for the average user, it took me some trial and error to get working A-Z, if you don't like clicking around and experimenting, this addon may not be for you.
Onne of the best terrain manipulation addons, superb
The most high detailed terrain designer so far (made for blender)! And generous support on Discord!!Works on M2 Mac!
Since this plugin has lots of flexibility, the UI seemed a little intricate for Blender newbie like me. However, the creator of this program tries to improve this system, and spend time and efforts replying people's question on Discord. I deeply appreciate his artisan spirit.

I have had this addon for quite awhile and never got around to actually using it or learning it. Today I cracked open the videos and PDF files and started my journey. Yeah I do not have the words to describe the beauty this addon creates and how you can articulate almost every thing in your scene's with simple sliders. This is one of the most immersive addons I have used besides the things created by MasterXeon1001 and Chip Walters. This just pushes me to see what else I can find in the some of the more advanced buried settings within the node editor. I must say Marko has really pushed this addon and what blender can do, prior to using this addon I was creating terrains in World Machine (very steep learning curve with node based workflow). Then pulling all the maps over into blender and using the ANT addon to generate the landscape. Which can get on your nerves when it doesn't understand the World Machine maps and you waste a lot of time in the node editor tweaking the WM maps so they translate correctly in blender. Which is ok but when you want realism it's really time consuming to achieve, Marko's addon blew me away I had a moderately complex landscape in probably 10 minutes or less. His channel over on YT taught me several other application techniques for the addon that exponentially expanded my knowledge quickly. Marko you did an awesome job with this addon and update this so frequently I feel if I don't read the manual or watch your YT channel I might miss something awesome. This addon turned me into a landscape junkie. LOL. By the way I also picked up your clouds and nodes addons I can't wait to get my paws into those because your addon's have gave me so many cool ideas, I just have to learn more about the addon's and how I can really push them over the edge.
Note: Anyone checking the reviews and your serious about results, pull the trigger on this addon you won't look back. I did and I never looked back and I have some expensive landscape addons and software that is collecting dust now because of this awesome addon. Also Marko has created several KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) video's that will have you up and running in no time. Support like that is very hard to find.

Thank you so much for this review. It is really comforting to read the words of a user who understands why this tool was built and how to use it. New update + videos coming in next 5-10 days. Cheers!
The idea is great but the UI, documentation and tutorials are below average to a point where trying to use this is frustrating and sometimes really unpleasant. The developer seems to be honest about this to set customers expectations before they buy this product. But to be honest after trying to use this product in its current state, I have to say that it is too expensive and I wished that I'd waited for a sale before buying it. I do see real potential in the product so I'm reluctantly keeping it in the hope that future updates improve things significantly to make it more user friendly and / or that it gets more functional and additional improvements made to it etc? I'm also thinking about making some modifications to it to make it more usable via a bit of coding if and when I get time etc.

Although I must disagree on most of the things you mentioned, thank you for your honest review. If you would like to discuss things further, please join our Discord. Cheers!
I've seen a lot of comments saying that it's too complex and leaving bad reviews, but don't let other peoples struggles dictate your own judgement. If you don't know something of course its going to be complex, a typical work man blaming their tools. I'm new to blender myself and I have found it tough to work through everything, but it's paying off with big rewards. I would 100% recommend this whatever your level. Thank you guys. Appreciate the work.

Thanks so much, Gary. I really appreciate the feedback. Take care.
hmm, the Idea is brilliant, therefore it´s still 3 Star, but the performance & the tutorials are incredible. Never had a such senseless complicated installation, so bad documented, :(
i´am working with a Predator Triton 500 SE i9 12th, with a NDIVIA 3080Ti GPU and 32GB Ram, but Blender get so impressive slow, like with NO other scene, it´s so slow, that i can hardly move the Terrain. I don´t know what the System condition should be to "work" with it.
That´s really sad i´am disappointed...

Dear Claudio, thanks for writing a review, although I would really appreciate if you got in touch first. You can still do it, of course, via DM or Discord where all other users are sharing their insights. My specifications are somewhat similar (3090) to yours and I haven't had similar problems. The whole idea of Terrain Mixer is fast workflow. Some users have reported issues with recent NVIDIA drivers. All the solutions were already covered under the 'Known Issues' section. Here's the direct link to it: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vRZBSWrI4OlVzDEWUh-2brEvo6vt_yTQJdC75tdrgO2I3jUrEgtgqyJvakJR1jJgSRMqqWSe0UYBQlS/pub#h.h93rqrn9qgrt
I recently purchased this addon for Blender and I have to say, I am extremely impressed with its capabilities.
As a 3D artist, I frequently find myself in need of realistic terrain for my projects and the terrain mixer has made that process so much easier.
One of the things I love most about Terrain Mixer is its intuitive user interface. It's simple to use and allows me to quickly and easily create a wide range of terrain types. From rolling hills to jagged mountain ranges, the terrain mixer has it all.
But the real power of this addon lies in its ability to mix and blend different terrain types together. With just a few clicks, I can create seamless transitions between different types of terrain, adding a level of realism and believability to my scenes that was previously unattainable.
Overall, I highly recommend "Terrain mixer" addon to any Blender user in need of realistic terrain. It's a game changer for anyone working in 3D and I'm sure it will become an integral part of my workflow.
