Just a Quick Question
How many people here know how write on Terragen, As in Created Islands that look like a Letter?

I didn't even know that could be done! Of course, I'm just learning Terragen and I'm a slow learner. =) Got an example for me?

If you can control the clouds to that degree I would like to know how...

If the clouds use the same input as Land, I can Control them!
The landscape input is required as a .RAW file
Open Adobe Photoshop, Create a new page at 257*257 in grayscale
Do what you may on there (Pure Black is -1000m and Pure White is +1000m so use the Gradient tool so you get a smoothed effect)
BUT, when you have done what you want, Flip it horizontally and then rotate it 180º (its the way Terragen Loads it, its stuffed up)
Save it as a .RAW
Load it in Terragen - (If the land is scattered or not how you saved it, make sure when you are saving the file it is on non-interleaved channels but it will only prompt that if the page ISNT set for grayscale)
Then you use the load feature in Terragen
Go to the landscape and set the Max Height and Min Height to something sencible or you will have big problems :P
Have fun, The first attempt will take you a while to get right
