Considering a lot of the modules? The Terrain Collection is now available offering 11 modules at a discount.


The Ultimate Bundle is also available with 18 modules at an even greater discount.


MicroSplat has custom integrations for many popular assets, including Vegetation Studio, Enviro, Weather Maker, and Map Magic. MicroSplat is also compatible with terrain generation systems like World Creator, Terrain Composer 2, and Gaia.


MicroSplat is unbelievably fast, often several times faster than competing shaders with the same feature set turned on, and is optimized for both high end and low end hardware. MicroSplat uses a unique shader generation system, so all features compile out and have no cost when not in use, and only the features you want need to be purchased. Note that MicroSplat is not a subset of MegaSplat, but rather a much more advance sequel
