Satellite View Material in Substance Designer

“A few weeks ago, while traveling by plane, I looked down the window and wondered, can I create a material using Substance Designer looks like this view? Theoretically, it is a combination of my “Island material” and “Village material”. The result is almost a plane window view,” wrote the artist.

The artist states that the material features a number of parameters allowing to change foliage, mountain heights, erosion, water level, and more. We’re the material could be useful when creating strategy games.

Parameters:

• Foliage and forest amount (depending on the slope)
• Mountain height, slopes, erosion level
• Water level and depth, rivers (experimental)
• Adjustable amounts of roads, cities, and farms
