  I've worked in film over a decade and have seen the gradual migration from flying crews around the world to virtual stages with massive volumetric set ups. The need for photo-realistic terrains and landscapes that can mimic a place on the map has generally been supported by tools like Houdini, Maya and Unreal.
  What True-VFX has created here, and their ecosystem of integrated add-ons, gives Blender users the opportunity to match the tools the big studios work with. Indies and solo artists now have a toolset to create any terrain they can dream up at a quality that measures up to the studios.
  I appreciate the quick look development True-Terrain facilitates and the ability to go back to adjust the terrains at a granular level. The included assets in scatters, materials, heightmaps and so on let's me quickly etch out an idea and pairing this tool with Nodescapes further extends the fine tuning which measures up to results I've gotten in tools like Houdini.

  I can't say enough about what a small team of indie developers has been able to create for the Blender community as a whole. Lastly, it's refreshing to be able to speak directly to the team, offer suggestions and see those come to the next release or update. (Try that with the other big devs)

  Great work here ... happy to make True-VFX tools a constant in my workflow and really excited for what the future releases will bring and what True-VFX will bring to the Blender community!

  The addon itself is great. Good for creating many varied landscapes.

  I was skeptical about buying this addon but finally decided to buy the ultimate version. This is one of the best addon on the market I ever purchased. Right out the box I can create realistic terrains, I just wish that the tutorials on how to use the addon properly were up to date, as of now they're kind of out dated.

  Other than that True Terrain is awesome ! Can't wait for more updates !

  I also have other addon's from this developer. The addons from True-VFX all work very reliably and are extensive in their functions. But I would also like to highlight the good documentation and tutorials for smooth operation, as well as the ongoing updates of versions. Especially the latter ensures planning reliability and sustainability. I hope it stays that way.

  Would you like to get in contact with us for support rather than leave a review on a tool you've not allowed us to help with any issue you're having?

  Now THIS is what I've been looking for. I find the UI very intuitive and the included materials and assets are great. If I can figure out how to EASILY import other assets into this, e.g. Alpha Trees, Bagapie assets, Scatter assets, Botaniq.... this thing will be a juggernaut. Please keep developing this, and thank you!

  A few hiccups at first that probably were small mistakes on my end. You have to anticipate a few things, and yes, Blender will struggle if you have a procedural material blending 4 types of 4K textures on a 2 millions terrain, but damn, once everything is set up, it is smooth as hell, and the performance is actually better once you are in render mode, and with true sky it's almost realtime in cycles. Baking works perfectly, and it allows me to do what I've wanted to do for years : hand craft terrains and assets to the highest quality, and then bake them if I need better performance or export to another software. A life saver and a joy to work with.

  The amount of work that went into this is beyond my comprehension, as are some of the tools themselves but that's why we like blender, to learn and grow as an artist and if you're looking for an addon that will help you do that while simultaneously producing photorealistic landscapes and scenery look no further.
  Everything is very intuitive, and for experienced Blender users many of the concepts and applications will be pretty straightforward. I learned as I went and didn't understand why some things reacted in certain ways but through a combination of trail and error, and many tutorials on their youtube even a shmuck like myself picked up and now frequently use a tool with unimaginable power.
  Most importantly to many of us though this product is tried and tested, being on its fourth iteration many issues are smoothed out, optimization is high, and the feature set works exactly as intended. In short, this product isn't going anywhere and will most likely continue to be ahead of it's rivals for quite some time giving it far more value than the humble list prices. Definitely recommend.
