GENESIS, you are talking about, right? Well, it will export to Silver and to Sculpt and to Videoscape. (grin) The Silver export is fantastic. It creates a seperate object for each terrain level (the various terrain colors), for cliffs, for the sea, for lakes and rivers…. so that you can later (in Silver) go in and individually tweak those items in color texture, etc without disturbing the other parts of the landscape. (can you imagine doing FACE SELECT on a 1000 faces – aaarrg!) Frankly, the GENESIS output (rendering) is so good that I would rarely take it into other programs, but it is nice to have the flexibility! I'll see if I'm allowed to upload pics here. Look for it in 1-2 months, I am told. –jp–
