I know its not directly Hive3D oriented. I am just passing the news along. I have no vested interest in the software other than I like it and I see its potential for an artist's tool box.
The latest version of FlowScape allows importing objects which adds a lot of potential for images. You can now populate the image with people and other objects (not just animals, creatures, and items from the software's internal library.) This version also includes point lights that have an adjustable fall off (scaling the light source). There's additional improvements on terrain sculpting and terrain painting; improved save function with more slots.
I haven't personally played with the import function, but what others have done looks impressive. There are apparently some nuances with textures importing with the objects. Other additions: improvements to terrain sculpting and terrain painting (including paths/trails added to previous releases). Additional features include more objects and sky domes and more controls on lighting and fog effect. (While it's been available for several versions, you can save a 360 degree image of your creation.) The images created still include the 'ortho view' (top down) that online DnD and RPG gamers use.
Here's link to reddit page if you want to find more details, version history and viewpoints from users (and to peruse images created with the FlowScape): r/FlowScape
To see my work with the earlier versions (many just my 'sandbox' playing around): FlowScape Collection by robert952 on DeviantArt
Here's the itch.co link if you care to purchase: FlowScape by PixelForest ($10.00 US - While I understand budget constraints, IMO well worth the price.)
Soon to be available at STEAM.
