In their own words
MapMagic 2
MapMagic 2 is a node-based procedural generator for Unity terrain and game objects. Users build graphs from generator nodes such as noise, Voronoi, blending, curves, and erosion. Listed outputs include height, holes, textures, grass, custom outputs, objects, splines, and biomes. During play mode, it can generate new terrain tiles for endless maps. The Biomes and Functions module blends graphs using masks and moves complex generation into sub-graphs. MapMagic 2 is listed as compatible with Unity 2022.3.62f1 across Built-in, URP, and HDRP render pipelines; installation requires the.NET 4.x API Compatibility Level in the Unity Editor. The core asset costs nothing. Biomes and Functions costs $45, paid once and requires an existing MapMagic 2 installation. The bundle costs $157.50, paid once and includes MapMagic 2 with Objects, Splines, Biomes, and Brush modules. The bundle listing says full source code is included. Special nodes are named for CTS, MegaSplat, MicroSplat, and Vegetation Studio Pro, though full compatibility is not guaranteed.
