Cg Cookie Exclusive The Island

Introduction: In this video for 3ds max we’ll take a look at a simple technique to use Forest Pro to create a 3D island in a sea environment. In The island video, we’ll create a 3D island mesh using a plane primitives with a displace modifier over. To create the mountain look, we’ll use a nested noise/gradient map. Then we’ll add a sea environment done using the VRay Sky, and a plane with MTD displacement in rendering to simulate the waves.
