Try not to smooth it too much. When you smooth the where you want some rough rock, it will look off.
What you're trying to make is erosion. It will have some smooth grass on top but the erosion exposes the rocks and dirt under that grass. So, while you might want to smooth... only smooth where there might be grass. That's why I suggest using low strength but high falloff- both hill to take it up and valley to give it down- this will give it some texture to where rocks are. Then smooth a little where grass it.
Start out with a nice hill- gentle and at the angle you want- then use the valley tool to make some erosion lines.
It will help if you try and paint it. Like a drawing, there's no detail without some color. imo. :)
I suggest removing the lots because you can see it's ripping and you'll have to correct it later. If you want to know where the lots are going so the land slopes from it, use the square paint of the lot size and mark where there will be lots. This way you can remove it later but still see where the lots will be. :)
Thank you. So I should resist the urge of smoothing and try to keep it rough. I used the low strength high fall off method you suggested.
I will smoothen my hill and try again.
I placed the lots when I thought I was done but then I hated it XD and decided I'll delete and replace them later. Thanks for the paint tip.
Should all my erosion lines end up at the bottom?
