07 — Pro Tips
TIPS & TRICKS
| 💡 | Start with low density and increase gradually — it's much easier than removing too many objects |
| 🎭 | Combine masks for natural-looking results — slope + noise gives you realistic terrain distribution |
| ⚡ | Use LOD for any scene with 1000+ objects — the performance difference is significant |
| 🧪 | Test exports with small scenes first before exporting large environments to catch issues early |
