Environment artists, What techniques can I use for sharper/natural blending between terrain masks?

TBAXTER · May 16 2023

I'm currently using mask's generated in World Creator for my terrain, problem is they don't hold up for close up shots, even at 8k. how can I get around this, are there some techniques environment artists use that i can implement? any help is appreciated.

a common technique is to blend the two materials by their height texture

even just a tiled noise pattern to breakup the edges can help too.
