I've got this simple terrain:
Now I'd like to scatter some cubes on it:
Now I want the "valley" parts to get more cubes, and "hill" parts to get less. An RBD sim could do that, but I feel there must be a much cheaper way. The terrain is generated by a simple simplex noise. But how to control the Scatter SOP's density by the said noise?
How to control scattering density by noise?

Another side note: if you didn't want to post-analyze the terrain and instead use the actual noise.. the mountain sop these days is using the same noise as everybody else. That means getting that same noise can be achieved by simply using an attribute adjust sop set/referenced to the same values as the mountain.
