Hydraulic erosion node: a video tutorial
In this video tutorial, we use the Hydraulic erosion node to simulate erosion on a terrain.
The blue areas represent the places where water flows and affects our terrain.
The node has preset parameters.
- The first three presets - Light, Medium, and Strong - simulate more or less standard erosion.
- Mostly erosion impacts the erosion on the terrain.
- Mostly deposition mainly promotes sediment input.
We also have custom parameters:
- Strength modifies globally the volume of water brought by the simulation.
- Erosion directly modifies the impact of this volume on the terrain.
- Deposition creates a sediment deposit in places where the slope is lower.
- Hardness is used to define the nature of the soil.
