afrazahmed Posted November 8, 2021 Posted November 8, 2021 I want to design waterfall or stream 2D and 3D design please help me which application more friendly. Quote
BIGAL Posted November 8, 2021 Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) More detail needed. Are you talking a 3d surface ? Then CSD could do it for you, just need to paste multi surfaces together to get a final surface. Stream + Weir + Waterfall + Base. Edited November 8, 2021 by BIGAL 1 Quote
afrazahmed Posted November 9, 2021 Author Posted November 9, 2021 Yes such kind of this Waterfall / stream on terrain like small river Quote
afrazahmed Posted November 9, 2021 Author Posted November 9, 2021 what CSD app could you please let me which application are good for landscaping Quote
Cad64 Posted November 9, 2021 Posted November 9, 2021 4 hours ago, afrazahmed said: what CSD app could you please let me which application are good for landscaping I believe Bigal is talking about C3D, (Civil 3D), not CSD. I've done several streams and rivers over the years, but not waterfalls. I create a 3D drawing of the basic shape of the stream in Autocad, then I import it into a 3D program to build the model. Pretty much any 3D program can be used to model the stream, but with 3ds max it's easy to import the .dwg straight into the program. With other 3D programs you have to jump through some hoops to get the CAD drawing imported, but it can be done. I used to only do still renders of my landscape projects but last year I started using Twinmotion to create animations. You can see an example of a river project I did here: I've been trying to figure out an easy way to create realistic falling water for fountains and waterfalls, but I haven't had much time lately and I'm not sure if it's possible to do what I want to do in Twinmotion. I might end up having to use Unreal Engine with a particle system or something like that. I don't know if any of this is helpful, but it's all I've got at the moment. Good luck. Quote
BIGAL Posted November 10, 2021 Posted November 10, 2021 The original post should have made it clear that a rendered image/movie was required, yes Civ3D or CSD Civil site design can be used to make the surface model for the water surface. Quote

I dont know why people are confused I have Drone data of this terrain I want to present natural stream in this data which fill flow from Lagoon water to top of Terrain via pumping room I want to show like natural either in civil 3d sketch up any software suggest me to show? or suggest me for software Quote

I have never used Civil 3D, so I would recommend you listen to Bigal and what he suggests. I posted THIS link in the other thread which talks about the procedure to import your C3D file into 3ds Max if you want to do some renderings, but for creating the stream you should probably do that in C3D.

BIGAL Posted November 11, 2021 Posted November 11, 2021 As cad64 is saying you would design a road down the valley say as a C/L with batters at 0.00000000001 this would make a surface that could be mapped as water. Quote
afrazahmed Posted December 29, 2021 Author Posted December 29, 2021 which software are more friendly to design such waterfall Quote
