To save time in World Machine I decided to make a snow macro. It works fairly well (even though there are some features missing right now such as mask input and more advanced height masking) and is very fast so I decided to share it with anyone who wants to give it a shot.

Download v0.1

To install, place the .dev file in "Documents\World Machine Documents\Macros".

Here's some explanation to what the options do:

Flow Bias:

Controls how biased the snow mask will be towards the flow map.

Flow Blur:

Controls blurring of the flow map before generating.

Slope Falloff:

Controls where the snow will appear. A low value will bias it more towards flat areas.


Here are some examples on top of Buzzcore's excellent coloring macro:

If you try it out, be sure to let me know what you think of it/what other features you'd like! It's very simple right now but I plan on trying to make it very versatile.
