“Creating Cityscapes” is our latest Tips & Tricks instalment for RailClone. In this episode we're going to demonstrate how to distribute pre-built assets to quickly create procedural cities using Forest Pack and RailClone.
Using a simple grid, we’ll demonstrate how to populate a city with 3 types of building, each showcasing a different technique. We’ll start with courtyard buildings, add towers that are automatically scaled and oriented to fill and entire city block, and finally fill blocks with multiple mid-size commercial buildings.
The techniques shown in this tutorial can be used with the free Lite version of RailClone so if you’re not yet a RailClone user then here’s a great excuse to take if for a spin.
