And a great idea @vincav81 !
That’s a shader thing and not my greatest concern 😉 I can do that, just tell me what style we are going for…in the artwork it looks more like flat colors, but that can be adjusted easily.
The problem appears, when trying to create grass with particles or other instancing, because of the sheer amount you’d need (10 million won’t even be close to near enough…)!
You could make ‘grass cards’, but when the camera moves, it will at moments look at the grass from almost above and then the illusion breaks completely…
So that is why I came up with basically what you propose, apart from the bump shader trick.
