Modifiers are the way to take procedural layers and turn them into amazing terrains. On this page you'll discover how to use the general modifier interface and menu options available to you.

To be concise, 'modifier' here refers to both 'masks' and 'modifiers' in the addon.

Add Modifier

Clicking the top right [+] will show a menu where you can select the modifier you'd like to use.

Remove Modifier

Remove the active modifier.

Move Item Up/Down

Move the active item up or down. The respective button will not be able to be pressed if the active item is the first, last, or only item in the list

Modifier Management Menu

Reset Modifier Types

Occasionally, after updating True-Terrain and accessing files created with earlier versions of True-Terrain 5, modifiers might exhibit an identity crisis, incorrectly presenting themselves as modifiers they are not. In such cases, the function available in the dropdown menu, situated between the Move Up and Remove Modifier buttons, will rectify the situation. It will effectively administer the appropriate adjustments to all modifiers, restoring their correct attributes and restoring proper functionality.
