I’m afraid the area you’re referring to comes as part of the house model itself—it’s not part of the editable terrain, so it can’t be deleted like terrain elements.
However, you can still change its texture, or cover it using Terrain tools, a plane model, or import another ground object to achieve the ground effect you’re aiming for.
But thanks for bringing this up! We’ll definitely consider optimizing this in the next competition to make things more convenient for everyone.
I want to participate in the render challenge, but i dont have social media accounts to post the result on, besides my website nrpa.nl. Is posting it on my website (under projects) sufficient as well?
Hello, yes, I’d just discovered that the hut is attached to the uneditable terrain. Slightly frustrating as I’ve been working on a whole concept and theme, and now that I can’t remove this terrain it’s kind of blown that out of the water! Is it not possible to provide the Hut as a stand alone D5 file. You mentioned in the theme about all these different scenarios, but now with the terrain locked in, it’s kind of limiting what can be done in front of the hut, apart from grass/roads etc? It is what is, but definately consider for the next competition, as it’s quite limiting.
Can you also confirm what level of AI adjustments is allowed for the final images if any?
