Cloner to create large grass fields?
Hello,
I am still new to whole 3d world and trying to explore deeper into it. I hope I can get some help from you all. Anyway, I created 400X400 of real looking grass fields on cinema 4d. I did so because having a large field from the beginning can cost lot of RAM and CPU power. Now I need to move on to the next step. I would like to create a large grass field such as this:

I’d use Cloner.. but there must be someone who knows better way to create the images without go through too much trouble. Thank you 😉 -

Well the best thing would be to use the hair module if you have it.

Well, What I meant was to create a large land scape filled with grasses. If I tried to create land scape entirely with hair module, it will take forever to render. I was going to use displacement map, yet I really liked hair module for the details I can have control over. I was wondering if you specialists have some wisdom to share with newbies like me. Thank you;-)

I am not a specialist but I would create your landscape put hair on the whole thing and render out a frame. Then I would use that image as a background and work from there forward. Just like you would in a normal 2D composting program.

Thank you for your input. I actually combined both displacement map and hair. I am still having a hard time to make both look seamless in out put….I will tweak it more 2 see what I can do..
