tfErosionHydraulic simulates the realistic erosion of terrains by precipitation, using one of two modes.

Properties

Mode

Hydraulic (2D Particles) is a 2-dimensional simulation and is therefore a much quicker filter, using heightmap information.

Hydraulic (X-Particles) is a 3D particle simulation filter, allowing much more control, but taking longer to simulate.
