Thanks a lot! I'm not using unity but a new RPG program called Bakin and this did the trick!

Dude, I hate you so much...I just spent the last hour trying to figure this out just with landscapes and inverted shapes, etc. and was banging my head against the wall...then, boom, Mr. Elusive Panda comes along with "just flip some rocks upside down" and now I feel like an idiot. ;)

Honestly, this is great and literally couldn't come at a more perfect time...well, I guess an hour earlier, but that on me for not searching first. Thanks so much, subscribed! ;)

Thank you! I use this method to make Overhangs and Land bridges in my game now!!

This is so awesome! Is it possible to have a normal sea level open world with your floating islands above and travel between the two, or would they need to be seperate with a loading screen?

I've actually been trying it out in Unity by doing a plane of terrain surrounded by rock clusters.

When you hide the rest of the landscape through visibility the part that you can’t see still have collision or can you fall through it?

I like this but what if you want to procedurally generate them? Can it be done in a similar way?
