Terragen landscaping software
Terragen is a landscape design app by Planet software company. It allows the user to design various landscape and planets using 3d modelling. You can create planets, moons hovering around the clouds. The software allows the users manipulate the landscape from any point whilst allowing the users to change the screen and it colour.
The software comes in two versions one a free version, which is good but has a lot of set backs such as it locks out creating any grass, sand, rock or building creation and dose make some images look grainer. Even though there are options to create them but they don’t appear in the paid version. The paid version is better even though it costs a bit. It allows you to do everything thing that a free version can not do.
Performance wise it work good on a laptops but it takes up a lot of usage on the laptop and could slow it down, even stall the machine regardless if being a 32 or 64 bit memory. On the the free version the rendering of the final may take some time but it allows the user to save the image as jpg or png formats.
Generally it’s a good software and can create some very good images regardless of its weaknesses. It may take some time for the user to get use to using the software and it seems to look a little confusing with its three screens. My advice would be to go for the commercial and paid version if you can actually afford it. This is due to the fact that it gives you vast ammount of things to do than the free and the personal use.
