Tutorials Extra #X08: Simple Terrains – Anatomy of A Terrain (Part 1)
The Anatomy of A Terrain is a new series of short videos in the Tutorials Extra playlist dedicated to creating terrains. The series teaches how to create terrains, from basic to advanced to animated terrains.
Video Tutorial
The first vide in the series covers a basic, simple terrain.
Parts 2 and 3 will detail slopes and stairs respectively.
NEWS: Hi-Tex Megapack Vol. 2 – Terrains: Walls Release Date
The Hi-Tex Assets Megapack Vol. 2 – Terrains: Walls is scheduled for release next week (earlier than anticipated).

Megapack #2 Contents
It contains 206 exterior wall terrains and variations, as well as their corresponding stairs and slopes, comprising 41 different types.
This will be available on the Gnome Treasure and Itch.io†.
† Prices on Itch.io are slightly higher to offset deductions from Revenue Sharing and PayPal fees.
Note About the Megapack #1
The Hi-Tex Assets Megapack Vol. 1 – Terrain: Ground is available for purchase for $12.99.
I’m redoing the stairs and slopes for the megapack, so anyone who purchases – or has purchased – the pack before they’re implemented will be able to upgrade at no extra cost.
And, since this megapack contains the previously released terrains volumes 1 and 2 (and the unreleased volume 3), those who have already purchased them can buy this pack for 3.99 (saving around 75%). Simply use the Contact Us form on the Gnome Treasure Store and select the subject Product Re-Request. I will then send an email directly and, once payment has cleared, will give a link for the complete megapack for you to download.
NEWS: Hi-Tex Megapacks
The Hi-Tex Megapacks are high-textured assets I’m creating for SMILE GAME BUILDER. Each pack contains at least 200 base terrains and/or models and, for terrains, additional stairs and slopes terrains are also included.
Scheduled Release Dates
These are the scheduled release dates of all the Hi-Tex Megapacks:
Vol. 1: Ground Terrains

$12.99
This pack superceded the previous volumes because I’d initially planned on having three separate terrain packs, each with around 60 terrains. However, the third was never released. Hence, all three are now combined into a single megapack.
An add-on pack will follow some time in the future to include things like cave entrances, blood stains and fire burns.
Vol. 2 – Wall Terrains
This megapack, scheduled for release in August 2019*, contains all kinds of wall terrains, from brick walls to stone walls.
¶ The way development has been progressing on this pack, it’s likely that its release date will be brought forward.
Vol. 3 – Buildings Wall Terrains
Scheduled for release in September 2019*, this megapack will contain various exterior walls for buildings.
¶ I’m also looking into adding some unique matching wall "attachments" models for inclusion in this megapack.
House Pack Megapack
The original "House Pack", intended for release some time ago, was to contain interior wall terrains only: Stucco, Brick and Stone textures, including their corresponding lintels.
This new megapack will also include some wood panel walls, aged walls and wallpaper (at least that’s the plan).
After some consideration, I’m entertaining including additional generic household items (models) in this pack. Time will tell whether these are added or no depending on the resultant filesize.
¶ I have no release date in mind for this megapack.
* These dates are subject to change.

15% Discount
Subscribers (I prefer "patrons") to my Subscribestar will receive an exclusive 15% discount. This applies to $5+ monthly subscribers.
Free “Subscribestar Uniques” Terrains
I have three free "Subscribestar Uniques" high-textured Terrain for my Subscribestar $5+ patrons. These are free-to-use in non-commercial and commercial SMILE GAME BUILDER projects only. No strings. There’ll be regular giveaways there, just like this one, as well.

Note: Subscribestar has inanely set it set up where you won’t see the post publicly unless you subscribe. You should be able to see a "locked" post (with a title) so that potential subscribers can see potential content. Not just the "paying few". Patreon does it (no not going there), so why can’t Subscribestar do the same?
