Using Masks with the Grass Output Tool

Hi there,

            Question about the Grass output tool for landscapes. I have it set-up where I can now paint grass onto the landscape under a certain layer. Can you import a grayscale mask into the layer to procedurally place the grass on the landscape? I’m hoping I can bake out a series of “foliage” masks to scatter foliage across the surface of the terrain. Afterwards I could then go in and start hand painting for close up detail.

You can import maps to use on weight-blended layers. Given you have a layer set up for your grass, you should just be able to load a grayscale map into the layer slot.
