Campsite similar to a national/state/provincial park?

EightiesIsEnough

I am wondering if there are any scenes or sets in the Shop or anywhere that have full campsite scenes similar to those used in a national, state or provincial park, with a gravel parking space for the vehicle (RV, car/trailer, or just car) to drive in to, a picnic table, a fire pit, and a space to set up a tent?

couldn't you just plonk all those things into an UltraScenery scene?

I agree you might want to try adding those things to an Ultrascenery environment and kitbashing the things you need. There are plenty of camping products here and on Renderosity that can be used for Tents, benches, firepits, pots & pans, sleeping bags etc.

If you don't want to (or don't have that) you could use daz3d.com/camping-site as a starting point. It is a small environment and so you'll have to be creative with adding something in the background depening on the camera angle. No space for Parking/RV tho as it's geared very much around the camp fire.

I'm interesting in learning how to use UltraScenery for creating campsites.  But I'd like to ask, what would I have to do in order to add a gravel texture to a section of the ground in UltraScenery?

SofaCitizen

Not had a chance to use it yet but there is the Mask Builder II script that seems like it could be used to specify where you'd want a clearing in the woods. then you should be able to place a primitave pane in that area with a gravel texture to be your parking area. If you throw some bushes or other plants around the edge you can make it look less square. I don't know if you actively need to show the RV-hookups in the scenes or if you can just place RVs on there and let the viewer assume the hookups are there but just behind the vehicle or otherwise out of shot?

It could, of cource, be entirely possible to create a natural gravel area entirely within UltraScenery (with the right plugins/extras) but I am no-where near experienced enough to know if it's possible or how to do it.

I found a product recently that better suits my needs.  It's the SkyRay World Builder set by Magix 101, which has morphable ground and roads. I bought it while it was on sale (and an additional 30% off due to a certain number of tokens), and it looks promising so far.  I am not sure if this was a newer product that was added to the Shop recently.

well if going down that route Terradome3 and it's various addons may suit you too https://www.daz3d.com/terradome-3-iray

I often use the older Magix set that was succeeded by https://www.daz3d.com/the-all-new-worldbase-xt-lushlands with all the addons that work with both, need some tweaking for Iray as 3Delight but often dirt cheap on sale

While we are on topic about campsites, I thought I'd make another request in the same thread, but has to do with a national park - at least in Canada.

I am wondering if there is any 3D model of a special kind of tent that functions as a tent/cabin hybrid - which Parks Canada calls an oTENTik - as shown in the image below, anywhere on the Internet, even as an OBJ file?  Of course, the Parks Canada logo on the front is not needed.

 I like the design of that.  Now there's an example of affordable housing.

Regarding the tent/cabin hybrid structure, is there any set of tent canvas textures I could get from the Shop or any site?

Unless I missed something, I couldn't find any 3D models of tent/cabin hybrid structures after doing a Google Images search, so maybe I might take a shot at creating such 3D model in Blender.

Also, Parks Canada offers cabin accommodations (including rustic cabins), yurts (round tents), teardrop-shaped structures, and miniature cabins shaped like rectangular cubes.  I do remember staying at a rented cabin at Newman Sound campground in Terra Nova Park in Newfoundland way back in July or early August 1979 - but according to Parks Canada's website it doesn't list cabins as an option, so chances are they were likely demolished at some point.  Except for cabins, none of the aforementioned structures existed in National Parks in Newfoundland back in 1979 nor even 2013. They may be a newer thing now.
