Chapter 3. Heightmaps

In GROME, scenes are created using combinations of fractal filters, fluid erosion, and hands-on brushing. Making natural looking terrains is easier in Version 3.1 thanks to the addition of flowmaps which simulate nature's process of water erosion. Heightmaps are edited from the Tools panel on the right-hand side via the Modifiers tab.
