I think I may have done you a disservice by emphasizing the "C5Pro beta," as the C5 beta is the same -- that is what I used. The 3 sections that bwtr mentioned are the files I mentioned earlier (C4 doesn't use the .txt file -- which is a script file). Sorry if I added confusion to your time -- learning a new 3D app. is confusing enough!

I did notice that the date of my Veloute betas is 10/20/05, the latest are 11/23/05. I'm going to move my older files to a safe place, and put the newer ones in -- see what happens?

BTW, I made a bunch of rocks in Vue, and imported them into C5 for distribution -- worked pretty good! Adding noise to the terrain mixed with rocks, and a "scum-line" effect produced one of the best shore-line effects I've done. Add a ripple or wave texture to a plane, then use the texture as a displacement map, and you got 3D waves -- that (I assume) can be animated. C5's distribution mapping is great; just add layers of distribution maps to a terrain texture, then use them for precise object distribution.

At any rate, this is where the plug-ins are: http://julien.chaplier.free.fr/DownloadLink/C5BetaPlugins.zip

Hope you had a happy T-Day!
