make realistic grass

Post by denmyos »

I'm looking for a way to make realistic looking grass.
Not just a photo, copying it self.
I have tried different settings in "modify 3D view" but the all seem to just copying them self in one way or another.

In tips and trick any one can give me. :)

PS. I included a image of a house a made,, but for some reason its not showing in this post.?

Perhaps you can find some grass here.

Yes I'm testing it as we speak.
But I'm "importing furniture" and to make the lawn big enough you have to import the grass piece 500 times.

But maybe I'm doing it wrong?

Well... it is better to use "importing texture"...

a texture will copy it self if you have a large area to cover.
Thats what i want to avoid.? :)

In my opinion, 3d models (.obj) can not be imported as texture. But maybe I do not know the appropriate workaround?

If there is a way to import .obj files i would like to know that workaround. I am trying to create furniture for a farm and need to build a cornfield in the background with the lawn in front. So far only been successful with textures however would like to have single straws for the lawn and field.

Use 3d grass models sparingly. Just for the shots where you need them. Put them closer to intersections with other models or your building to give the best but fastest effect.
